PRESIDENTS S ponsor White Christmas for I ndigent F amilies Homeroom Presidents Club, guided by Mr. Bag- ley and Mrs. Chamberlin, provided the link be- tween the administration and the student body. This organization, composed of an elected representative from each homeroom, functioned as a nucleus for programs and activities designed to benefit pupils. Information regarding school activities was pre- sented to each homeroom by its representative. Functions which were aided by this club includ- ed the Tenth Grade Orientation Assembly, in which members gave reports to acquaint new students with the rules and traditions of Norland. College Night was an evening program developed for college- bound students and their parents to acquire infor- mation from different college representatives. The White Christmas project was aimed toward aiding needy families through the Welfare Department. Career Day consisted of lectures by qualified speak- ers on a variety of occupational opportunities. In this program, Homeroom Presidents acted as hosts and performed introductions.

The T hor, aHiliated withT the National Journalistic Honor Society, presented an accurate and concise account of the school year. The newspaper served as a journal of student life and the everlasting tide of school activities. Students are the focal point of the Thor. Each month the staff members f ollowed a Vigorous sched- ule in order to produce an outstanding newspaper. The seven members collected and evaluated news, wrote materials, counted copy, proofread drafts and then sent them to the printer. When the finished edition returned, they counted the papers and dis- tributed them to the homerooms. Under the counsel of Mrs. Massey, the staff regu- larly attended the Florida Scholastic Press Asso- ciation Conferences to keep abreast of the latest journalistic developments. To supplement the in- come from the sale of ads to finance the publica- tion, bake and pretzel sales were held. Sports Editor Steve Lewis checks the sports section in the past editions of the Thor for the accuracy of team scores.
