Manet Staff The Manet Staff is that hardworking group which is responsible for this Yearbook. This year, as in the past, the Staff was divided into various groups, creative writing, write-ups, typing, compiling, advertising, and art work. Mr. Coolidge was the faculty advisor, while Miss Meisner and Miss Palmer super- vised the work of the literary staff. XYalter Montgomery was General Chairman of the Stall, and Donald Chadwick was Chairman of the Advertising Committee. The Motion Picture Operators Club The Motion Picture Operators Club is composed of a group of boys interested in the technique of the projector. This Club, under the direction of Mr. Forest, is composed of about thirty-five boys. These boys show educational films for teachers, and entertaining hlrns in the auditorium for the pupils. Social Studies Staff Started last year, the Social Studies Staff has earned its place as one of the service organizations here at North. About forty-five volunteer workers man 301 all hours of the day. Their job is to help students looking for books, pamphlets, and information on the social studies. Under the direction of Miss Pratt and Mr. Noyes and the chairmanship of Maude Means, Virginia Lewis, Emily MacRae, Sheila Williams, and Gloria Fee, the staff has developed a smooth working organization which renders a much needed service to the School.

National Honor Society Colleges may have their sororities and their fraternities, but North goes a step ahead with its National Honor Society. This was sponsored by Mr. Mac- Donald until he was transferred to Quincy High, whereupon Miss I-lorrigan became supervisor. The organization, a new but rapidly growing one at North, includes both boys and girls-any students who meet the necessary requirements. Xl'hat are these qualifications? The pupil should be continuously striving to develop his character: to maintain high scholarship, to give generously of his services to the Schoolg and to lead his fellow associates on to greater heights. Each May there is an impressive induction ceremony by which the new can- didates receive their membership cards and pins, preparatory to meeting those standards set by their proud predecessors. The Bowling Club The Bowling Club is made up of approximately 150 boys and girls under the supervision of Mr. J. Silvia. This Club meets every VVednesday, Thursday, and Friday afternoon at the Norfolk Bowling Alley. The war situation has caused all extra activities to be cancelled for the duration. Memories of the Girls Club Ruth Richmond, President Mary Shea, Vice-President Carol jackson, Treasurer jean Mullin, Secretary WELFARE WORK: VVe girls certainly had a successful year. VVe sent money and clothes to Russia: money to China and Greece, Thanksgiving and Christmas contributions to the Family XVelfare and Red Cross, clothes to Tuskegee Institute and stuffed dolls and animals to the British. In addition, we sold six hundred VVar Stamps at the Fun for Guns show. SOCIAL AFFAIRS: We shall never forget Initiation Day, the weenie roast at Squantum, the Fun for Guns show, the Christmas party and Assembly, and the party in the gym. XVe shall remember these activities also: three assemblies with .selected speakers on Personality, Clothes, and General Interestsg our Mother's Tea and Style Show and our Annual Dance. XVe do get around, don't we? S 1 I 3
