who represented the Marshall Plan countries, stayed in homes in the Metropolitan area for two-' week periods in order to see and experience the home life in America. Kiki was the guest of Judy Shumway and Nancy Barrow, while Jerry stayed with Derry Kruse. Manhasset students were im- pressed with QIJ how very little real difference there is between American and European teen- agers, Q25 how well they speak English, and QBJ how much more ditiicult their schools are than ours. The whole program benefitted Manhasset. As Jerry remarked, How wonderful it would be if all the nations of the world could get along together as well as their young representatives. ln January the National Honor Society chose twelve seniors as members. Marilyn Craig, Bob Ferguson, Beverly liowle, Maryann Holmes, Don King, Elizabeth Block, Hugh Kitchener, Marjorie Cote, Ann McGeeney, Carolyn Rapp, Glenn Riggs. CAMERA CLUB C. Jennings, D. Payne, T. Beckett, A. Knapp, J. Sturges, B. Siebert. and Ginny Thompson were elected on the basis of scholarship, character, leadership, and service. All the students in the top quarter of the senior class were considered, but only 1552 of the class could be admitted. After years of complaints and suggestions and petitions a committee was set up to work on a youth center for Manhasset High School students. The members were Mary Talbott and Larry Ed- wards, freshmen, Marilyn Wittsc'hen and Dick Clark, sophomores, Judy Shumway and Don Bayer. juniors, and Ginny Thompson and Don King, seniors. They decided to start by setting up the youth center in the school with the help of the School Community Association. The committee planned to use the general purpose room with the hope that the youth center might be moved to some other building in Manhasset in the future. HOSTIZSS CLl'l5 Lalflaca, G. Dunne.

All too soon we were hack at school with resolutions galore to do our homework and get lwetter report cards. Of course our good intentions were soon forgotten, lvut it wouldnt he a new year without resolutions. The parties and dances and dates with collegiates were over and M.H.S. seemed tame and routine.
