tutors students Northwood's chapter of the National Honor Socie- y boasts a membership which reflects the quality of he school. Already having a membership composed f more than sixty seniors, the Society inducted even ore outstanding seniors and juniors in the recent ay ceremonies. This ceremony highlighted the ualifications a student must show before he or she s eligible for membership in the Honor Society. High chievement in leadership, scholarship, character and ervice must be shown not only in the school but also n the community. Once a person has become a mem- er of the Society, he must strive even further to phold the honor which he has received. In keeping ith this trust. the Honor Society this year main- ained a free tutoring service for all students in eed of such aid. Outstanding contribution to one of Northwood's Hiterary publications, either the ARROWHEAD, the Red and Black, or Reflections, is recognized by in- duction into the Quill and Scroll Society. Although the Society is an official body of Northwood, it is not an active organization. The newly formed Spanish Honor Society held its second induction December 11 and inducted fifteen new members. The society provides its members with a chance to develop their interest in the Castilian language and peoples. Under the sponsorship of Mrs. Lola D'Amador, the students planned a trip to the Pan American Union and lunched in one of Wash- ington's excellent Spanish restaurants. Northwood's literary .figures pose for Quill and Scroll Society Inspecting an appropriate relic are Spanish Honor Society members Carol Seliger, Nan Landsman, Toni Clarke, Lolly Schultz, and David Heath. lSl

Zel- Northwood's Thespian Troupe is composed of those students who were awarded points on a sys- tem devised by the National Thespian Society for their efforts in the school's dramatic productions. The Troupe held two inductions of members. one in December, 1962 and the other in May of 1963. Mathletes unite at Northwood!! This year the Math Honor Society formed a math Competition Team, whose members call themselves mathletes. When not engaged in solving complicated problems, these prodigies, and the other, equally cerebral, members of the club, attended lectures given by professional mathematicians. The purpose of all this activity was to promote interest in and knowledge of mathematics. La Societe Honoraire de Francais, an elective as- sociation of French students having exceptional ability, met under the direction of Mrs. Margaret Boone, to plan its activities. One of the major pro- jects of the society was the tutoring of students hav- ing difficulty in their French studies. Plans were also made for field trips to Maryland University language laboratories and to a French restaurant in Washing- ton and for the induction of new students in the spring. 153 'Vx .ti lAm,L. w,..,f,.
