The two staffs whose members make up Quill and Scroll at PHS are the Tiger's Tale and the Annona. According to the Constitution, to qualify for Quill and Scroll, candidates must have the following requirements: they must be of at least junior standing, they must be in the upper third of their class in general scholastic standing at the time of their election (for the current year), they must have done superior work in some phase of journalis- tic work or literary endeavor, they must be recommended by the adviser or school principal, and they must be ap- proved by the executive secretary. Quill and Scroll holds its meeting once a month. The meetings are run on the basis of one business meeting to each, program meeting. During the course of the year at these meetings the members have the opportunity of hear- ing journalists speak on the various phases of journalism. One of the main projects of Quill and Scroll is the sponsor- ing of annual publications banquet each spring. Other ac- tivities of the club include the visiting of other publications and the attending of journalism conventions throughout the state.

The members of the Pensacola Chapter of the National Honor Society participated in many first semester proj- ects. At the beginning of the school year they acted as guides at the Sophomore Orientation Day. A special com- mittee was responsible for the changing each week of the bulletin board in the main hall. At Christmastime, the Chap- ter gave toys and clothing to eight small children in foster homes, who otherwise would not have had an enjoyable Christmas. This year, as before, the Honor Society sponsored the Honor System and the Student Guidance Clinic at Pensa- cola High School. The chapter set a precedent this year in establishing a scholarship of fifty dollars to be given to a needy senior who is best qualified for college work and who has at least a 2.5 average. This award was given on Class Day. The chapter also gave the annual Honor Society Award to the outstanding senior boy. The National Honor Society feels that it is recognizing worthy students, not only for their past achievements but also for their fine promise of continued service and schol- arship.

Student Band Leaders Form Council Grace Goodenough Jane Wamble Susan Parker Gene White Lee Cetti DRUWANDA WOOLAM Drum Major Druwanda Woolam Tommy Tullius Student Band Leaders and their fellow band members govern the activities of their respective organization during the year of 1958. The Band Council, composed of student leaders of the band, serves the band in much the same as Congress serves the United States. It meets once a month to discuss the band's problems. Members of the council, ten juniors and sophomores, are elected by a junior-senior vote at the end of each year. Each member is representative of a section of the band, and thus the council is able to meet with all problems of the entire band. Before the band decides on any activity, the student leaders are consulted. If the proposal meets with the ap- proval of the Band Council, the band as a whole then makes the final decision on the matter. As individuals, particular student leaders serve the band in many other ways. The drum major is automatically a member of the Band Council; she serves the band mostly during the march- ing season by helping to plan half-time shows. The band manager is responsible for all trips of the band; he han- dles problems of reservations and transportation, and plans the annual concert tour. The band's drill master serves the band during the marching season by being responsible for marching activities. To help band members to keep their uniforms in proper shape, the quartermaster performs many duties, which include care of the band hats on band trips. Other Council members serve the band as general as- sistants. The band has been better able to do more things since this group began its valuable functions two years ago
