A Fresh Start The Library Club, with a new head librarian and sponsor, Mrs. Virginia Davis, did the routine jobs of checking out, filing and shelving books. In addition to their everyday jobs, they tried new money-making projects such as typing reports for students and selling Ripples cookies and Doodles candy. The money that the Library Club made went back into the library for improvements such as new paperback books. Another thing that was added to the library this year was the video recording equipment with both color and black and white capabilities. Used for instructional purposes, the recording equipment was checked out in about the same manner as the books were. On Friday, March 20 the Library Club took its annual trip to Little Rock for the statewide Arkansas Student Librarian Association's meeting. Representatives from each school elected new officers and amended the constitution. Student Librarian, Terry Melson prepares to check out a book while Library Club Sponsor, Mrs. Virginia Davis looks on.

Service To And For Others The National Honor Society under the direction of Mrs. Neva Byrd, sponsor, had a very busy year. The Society sold cookies and donuts at break for a fund raising project. As a community service project they collected aluminum soda drink cans for the Howard County Herbage Club. The only profit they received was stickey fingers. As a school service project they cleaned all of the chairs in the library. President Billy Spangle, Vice President Kim Chism and Secretary Janet Jones, Denise Leverett, Lance Click, and Jeff Linville spoke on the Honor Society's selection criteria at an induction ceremony on November 24 in the library as eight new members were installed. The Honor Society members made holiday favors for the Leisure Lodge Nursing Home. They designed turkeys from construction paper for Thanksgiving Day. The Honor Society recognizes certain students and gives these students the chance to mature through service to and for others. At the Honor Society induction ceremony held in the NHS library, Janet Jones talks about the leadership of the Honor Society. Honor Society member Lance Click cleans chairs as part of a school service project.

Le Circle Francais By Jane Graves, The Nashville News The French Club's traditions continued providing fun and learning experiences for students as they learn a second language. The French Club was formed during the 1960-61 school year, according to sponsor Neva Byrd. She r.ecalled, “The students insisted that we have a French Club. Since that time, the French Club has never missed a year and has never included less than eight or nine members. Meetings were not scheduled on a regular basis; however, the club met at least once each month. Robert Bennett becomes a French Club member as he takes the oath given by Lance Click. Inductees came dressed in an array of costumes to the Mardi Gras celebration. Sometimes there were called meetings at noon. The club entered a float in the city's Christmas parade, as they have done for the past few years. Another activity of the club included an observance of National Foreign Language Week. The French Club members attended a Foreign Language Festival during that time at Flenderson State University. The main event for the year was the March celebration of Mardi Gras which included a time for fun and a time to initiate the new French Club members. This activity has been repeated here for approximately twenty years. Members, inductees, and even the sponsor of the club came dressed in costumes. There was a clown, a Southern belle, an artist, an angel, a ballerina, and many more. Debie Boden and David Harding were named winners of the costume contest. The menu for the evening was an arrangement of delicious authentic French recipes. French Club officers included Lance Click, president; Denise Leverett, vice president and program chairman; and Debie Boden, secretary-treasurer. Organizations 27
