BETA ENCOURAGES EXCELLENCE To finance the trip to the Beta Convention (Roa¬ noke, Virginia), Northampton’s chapter of the Na¬ tional Beta Club sold stationery and sponsored its annual Beta Night. These two financial ventures were so successful that the club treasury exceeded its usual amount and contained over $1,000 before the Roanoke trip. Beta also contributed toward the pur¬ chase of a water cooler. The newly elected officers, Ernie Gibb (president), Patricia Tankard (vice-presi¬ dent), and Jane Kellam (secretary-treasurer), and Phyllis Bradshaw (chaplain), were installed and the sixteen new members were inducted in March. Pictured here are Vivian Whitted (vice-president), Wendy Pusey (president), and Anne Watson (secretary-treasurer). Miss Lila Jacob has served as sponsor of the N.H.S. Beta Club since its organization in 1962.

S.C.A. INITIATES JUDICIARY The S.C.A. officers, Donald Stine (vice-president), Reed Ennis (treasurer), Bess Cowling (Secretary), Vivian Whitted (presi¬ dent), and sponsors Mr. James and Mr. Wescott used their lunch periods for the Christmas mail service. Those participating in the panel discussion on the Honor Code were Mrs. Nottingham, Mr. Badger, Reed Ennis (moderator), Hannah Henderson, Wendy Pusey, and Billy Mason. The S.C.A. was one of the school’s most energetic organizations throughout the year. It initiated several new activities including a Christmas card mail ser¬ vice, a Library Week campaign, and a Cafeteria Clean-Up Week. It’s most laborious project was re¬ vising the, school handbook, but its biggest achieve¬ ment was establishing a student court, the Student Judiciary Committee. The S.J.C. (Student Court) consisted of three twelfth graders, two eleventh grad¬ ers one tenth grader, one ninth grader, and one eighth grader. The S.C.A. president, Vivian Whitted, presided. Minor infractions were referred to the court for discipline. 28
