National Honor Society On April 1 twenty-four members of the senior class of '32 were elected to membership in the National Honor Society by H. F. Dial, principal, and a committee of teachers. Those who were selected for this honor are as follows: Eugenia Ammons, John Babb, Beatrice Briley, Ralph Cloar, Jack Eisenkramer, Sylvia Ehrenberg, Sue English, Joe Evans, John Gannaway, Harvey Gillespie, John Gillespie, Alfred Hirt, Margaret Hirt, Helen Hogg, Mildred Howell, Mary Kovac, Edwin Kueck, Melva Little, Robert Loving, Billy McDonald, Ralph Mitchell, Janet Speers, Juliet Speers, Judson Shaw, Eugene Wiley. In order to be eligible for membership in this organization, one must rank in the upper third of his class in scholarship; he must have attended this school at least two semesters; he must be conspicuous or outstanding in leadership, and intellectual achievement or service; he must be loyal to high ideals, and have nobility of character. In other words, scholarship, service, leadership, and character are the things on which the consideration is made when a student is being selected to become a part of this national organization. Not more than fifteen per cent of the graduating class can become members. The purpose of the National Honor Society is to create an enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote leadership, and to develop character in the students of American high schools. As has been stated scholarship is a requirement, but not the only one. The remaining ones are: service, leadership, and character. The initiation of the new members will be held Thursday, April 28, in the Senior Assembly. The ceremony will be in charge of Hugo Gulpcpper, assisted by John McLeod, Stacy Wiley, Lo-ranne Dubose, Hardy Kilgore, Beth Wilson, and Mildred McIntyre. Top Row: Kucck, J. Gillespie.

The Debating Team When the debat' ing season opened, only one member had had any previous exper-lcnce; hut coached by Jerry L. Patterson, the other members developed rapidly. This year the team has been very successful. Eugene Wiley and Billy McDonald, seniors, took the affirmative of the question: “Resolved: That the Several States Should Enact Legislation Providing for Compulsory Unemployment Insurance. Helen Hutt, junior and Joe Evans, senior, had the negative side of the question. Frances Perry, Edith Wharton, Reggie Eilbott, and Richard Petticrew were alternates. The first scheduled debate of the season, with Magnolia, had to be cancelled because of the illness of three members of the team. The second debate was a tie. Helen and Joe, participating in a formal debate for the first time and speaking before the assembly, lost to the Fordyce affirmative 3-0. Although this, too, was Billy's first experience in formal debate, the affirmative, debating at Fordyce won the decision 3-0. Pine Bluff made a clean sweep of the debate with Greenville, Mississippi, both sides winning 3-0. Miss Car-mical accompanied the negative to Greenville because Mr. Patterson ' was too ill to make the trip. The third debate, with Monticello, was the hardest of the season. It, too, was a tie. The affirmative won its half 2-1, and the negative lost by the same score. Again the negative made the trip. A debate with Little Rock has been scheduled for April 13th. Both teams will speak at Little Rock. On April 15 and 16th the team will enter the triangular debates at Fayetteville. This year Reggie Eilbott will represent Pine Bluff in the extemporaneous speaking contest at Fayetteville. In the district contest at Stuttgart and, if successful in the district, in the state contest at Conway, Helen Hutt and Eugene Wiley will represent Pine Bluff in the individual debates. Eugene Wiley will also represent the school in declamation at Stuttgart. Top Row: Wiley, Hutt, Eilbott, Evans. Second R o w: McDonald, Wharton, Petticrew, Perry.
