he Norcross Beta Club was made up of students with an overall grade point average of 90 or above for 5 consecutive quarters. In the words of the co-sponsor Mrs. Judy Williams, Their purpose is to promote standards of ex- cellence in scholarship, leadership, and character. On Halloween, the Beta Club started off their year with a costume party with the National Honor Society Members. Everyone dressed up and went to the house of Tom Steimer and had agoodtime. The next month, they again combined with the National Honor Society for American Education Week, November 15-19. They fixed bulletin boards, put up posters, made an- nouncements over the intercom, and set up the Smart Booth. There students asked questions of members of both clubs.

he NHS Chorus began its third year on an up-beat. Due to its improvements and accomplishments in its first two years, the choir was invited to many special occasions. Mrs. Marianne Johnson has done a wonderful job as choral director at Norcross High School, She succeeded in building one of the best chorus programs in Gwinnett County. Mrs. Johnson's hard work and dedication show in the sharp results the Norcross Chorus receives. In the fall, the choir worked at a quick tempo to prepare for early concerts. In late September they performed on the steps of the Crystal Pistol at Six Flags, and at Caloway Gardens in October for the State Principles' Convention. The choirs were well received on both occasions. One of the highlights of the year for our Chorus was singing at the Lighting of the Great Tree at Ftich's Department Store. The Chorus entertained the Thanksgiving Day crowd with a dynamic concert. They enjoyed it very much and hope to be invited again. The Chorus was served well by it's hard-working and dedicated officers this year. Pam Leach, an energetic senior was the Chorus president for 82-83. She had as vice-president Scotty Hornsby, a three year Chorus veteran. The choir's secretary job was filled by two people. Kim Logan was the recordive secretary. She took roll, kept track of lists and many other small things of vital importance to Chorus. Meanwhile Karla Kortez did the corresponding part of the secretary job. Writing thank you letters to Chorus supporters was her largest responsibility. .maya ,w 130
