The Scholarship Clubs This year the scholarship groups, Scholarship Club, Silver P , and National Honor Society, decided to collaborate into a joint group, for they felt the value of scholarship and the promoting of it in the school would most likely flourish under the leadership of one large club. Each group maintains its individual framework with its officers as always before, in case of the occurrence of something special, affecting only its own members. The Scholarship Club Banquet, of which Perry this year was given the honor of being host, is an example. The banquet was enjoyed by all the schools who attended and our club was very proud. The officers of the joint organization were chosen from the members of the complete group. Namely they are: President, Ruth Averill, Secretary, Neva Johnson, and Faculty Advisor, Mr. Stirm, who was aided by Mr, Few. This is a fine group and we predict a bright future once they begin working an some of their prevalent ideas. The most coveted honor of all these clubs is being a member of the National l-lonor Society Each year a certain percentage of the Junior and Senior classes is represented. Those on the National l-lonor from last year are Bill Bittles and Joan Blackmore, seniors. The senior chosen this year was Charlotte Champion, the iunior was Ruth Averill, twenty-four

Junior - Senior Play You Can't Take lt With You, presented by the Juniors and Seniors, a smash hit straight from Broadway, under the able direction of Mr. Skriletz, with really brilliant performances by the future actors and actresses l?l of Perry High. We laughed till we thought our sides would split over the strange friends and doings of the Sycamore family and before the evening was over, we considered ourselves their friends too - and, Oh my, what those love scenes didn't do to our hearts! All in all, we think it was the best play ever presented in P. H. S. Everybody did his part to make it a success. Thanks, kids, for a grand evening. lt was nice to be able to laugh at somebody else's troubles for a change! twenty-three
