16 THE 1928 PASEON .1i - , National Honor Society Paseo received her charter allowing her to organize a chapter in the National Honor Society early in the fall of 1927. Twenty-eight students make up the first chapter of the National Honor Society of Secondary Schools, at Paseo. Twenty-four are seniors and four are juniors. Membership is based on scholarship, character, leadership, and service. The upper third of the senior class is chosen as to grade average and from these ten per cent of the class is elected as mem- bers of this honorary position. One per cent of the junior class is selected similarly, so as to keep the spirit of the society flickering through each year until the next group is chosen. The emblem of the National Honor Society is the keystone and the flaming torch. The keystone bears at its base the letters which stand for character, scholarship, leadership and service, the cardinal prin- ciples of its organization. Thus the keystone symbol- izes the high ideals of the society and the flaming torch is the emblem of its purpose. The members of Paseo's first chapter are: Abra- ham Bachus, Victoryne Christensen, Helen Closson, Vera Cramer, Veronica Dolan, Mike Eitelman, Doro- thy Engel, Oleta Fitzgerald, Paul Heisey, Besse Hig- bee, Louis Karges, Paul Kelly, Katherine Morris, Juanita Morse, Mary Virginia Peters, Martha Plum- mer, Gretchen Pratt, Dorothy .Randolph, Frances Rush, Helen Pearl Smith, Raymond Stanley, Julia Ruth Titterington, Marjorie Truitt, Randolph Wenzel gi the junior members who are to carry on are: George Boyd, Ruth Burnley, Doris Burns, and Fred Kiel. Paseo Honor Roll At the close of the first semester two lists of honor students were named, form-ing the General and the Highest Honor Rolls. Many students won, by diligent effort, places on one or the other. This year six have made the Highest Honor Roll as compared to eleven of 19275 forty-one are General Honor stu- dents in comparison to fifty-one of last year. This decrease in students is probably due to the increasing number of activities in which ambitious pupils are 6H8f1giU8', but still the high grade average maintained speaks well for Paseo. Pupils' eligible for the Highest Honor Roll should be carrying at least four solids, or the equivalent, two non-solids to count as one solid. An F. must be at- tained in each subject as the final semester grade. The grade received in physical education counts the same as the grade received in a non-solid in placing pupils on the honor rolls, but does not count in keep- ing pupils off of them. There are two sets of standards for the General Honor Roll. To be eligible, the student must carry at least three solids and one non-solid, or the equiv- alent, and the final semester grades must meet either of the following conditions: No grade below M and as many as three Ffs in solids. or two E's in solids and two E's in non-solids, or no grade below S and as many as two E's in solids, or one E in a solid and two E's in non-solids.

18 THE 1928 PASEON Student Council The Student Council of Paseo High School has been organized as a connecting link be- tween the student body and the faculty. lt tends to develop high ideals among the students, and creates public opinion in the home rooms through the discussions following the reports of the home room representatives. Much of the helpful work that was carried on by the Council this year was due to the untiring ef- forts of the first term president, Seymour Bernat, and the second term president, Joe Landes. The chairmen of the Executive Com- mittees that acted in conjunction with Miss Thomas, the faculty adviser, were a credit to the Council and to the entire student body. The standing committees of the Council are the Property, the Safety, the Courtesy, and the School History Committees. The representatives for the first semester were: Paul Marchant, Kathryn Sheperd, Dale Frause, John Roush, Barbara jane Stoltze, Dudley Dreher, Mary Drullinger, Joe Beal, Ruth Willoughby, Ruth Talbot, Helen Guinan, Howard Hill, Martha Stigall, Milburn Con- cannon, Margaret Bowser, Gladys Lebo, Anna- belle Osburn, William Townsend, Myrtle Pat- terson, Marian Paulette, Margaret Duncan, Hugh Kuder, George Bartholomaes, Klenn Stone, Charles Gibson, Bernice Vochatzer, Doris Burns, Charles VValter, Virgil Dow, VVilma Tout, Wilma Norman, Lula Belle Schultz, Elizabeth Wilkes, William Duncan, Harvey Hamilton, Mary Carter, Robert Schxvindler, Lincoln Clift, Dale Bullock, Besse Higbee, VValter Lyman, Elliott Reclies, Robert Kernberger, Ruth VVeidman.
