Patrick Henry's French Club La Marianne, is considered by the large number of members to be a real asset to the department. The outstanding goal of La Marianne is to develop in the students an interest in the social life, educa- tional system, and culture of the French. This is achieved through a variety of entertaining and in- formative programs presented at the monthly meetings. ln addition to these meetings the French Club annually holds a Christmas party in December and a picnic at the end of the year. The Class representatives to the French Club this year were Linda Hall, Mary Woods, Sharon Haislip, Peanut Willis, Carol DeVaughn, Carol Grasty, Jill Butler, Blair Fulton, Lew Reynolds, Debbie Schwartz, Allison Smithey, Diane Curd, Emily Kern, and Martha Kennedy.

Martha Mundy and Anne Sacks check reports for the tutoring committee, FOUR GOALS CDF NHS Character, scholarship, leader- ship, and service, goals of the Na- tional Honor Society, are all up- held by the Patrick Henry Chap- ter. To encourage stronger charac- ter and to promote an awareness of honor, the NHS sponsored an assembly in January. Four guest speakers including a lawyer, a judge, a psychiatrist, and a rabbi, discussed the pre-exam pressures on students. Serving the school in many ways, the NHS directed a tutoring service and a book sales booth. Profits from the book sales were used to help sponsor the Academic Recognition Banquet in May and contributed to the John F. Ken- nedy Scholarship fund. At the an- nual tapping assembly on Febru- ary 24, seniors and juniors who had proven their qualifications were inducted into the society. To them was given not only a high honor but a responsibility to up- hold the four goals of the National Honor Society. The officers were Bill Waldrop, President, Betty Wallenborn, Vice- President, Kathleen Grady, Secre- tary, and Mary Nininger, Treas- urer. Miss Shanks was the sponsor. I New members were welcomed into the society at the lnduc tion Ceremony. Dr, James Roy Smith was guest speaker at the assembly.
