tibudenf ' WELL-DRESSED MEN ABOUT SCHOOL The two senior boys all dressed up on Mon- day were not late church-goers but represen- tatives of their school at the weekly Rotary Club meetings. In all, eighteen boys-two each month-served as Student Rotarians. During that month they attended four meet- ings and were considered full-fledged mem- bers, granted the right to wear the official pin and requested to call all Rotarians by their first names, The students, chosen by Mr. James Brown and approved by Mr, Harold Mertz on the basis of scholastic ability, school citizenship, leadership, and character, became acquainted with business methods by meeting Logans- port's commercial and professional leaders. At his last meeting each boy delivered a short talk on a subject of his own choice, during the other meetings he listened to elder Rotar- ians speak on local and national affairs. Among the outstanding men who spoke to the club were Philip Willkie, state legislator, Eugene Pulliam, well-known publisher of the Indianapolis Star and Indianapolis News, Paul Cyr, federal intelligence agent connected with the Department of State, and Tom Hasbrook, author of the Indiana anti-gambling law. The seniors not only were treated to the com- pany ot prominent businessmen but also were honored at a banquet held April 27, The boys, who invited their best girls to the event, gave a panel discussion on community contribu- tions. Rotary Club, which has extended a cor- dial invitation to high school students for eighteen years, welcomes the opportunity to meet teen-age boys and share their interests.
