National Honor Society The National Honor Society is a scholarly or- ganization created to stimulate an interest in schol- arship, a desire to serve, to lead, and to develop character in high school students. Advised by Mr. Oman and led by President Rosalyn Sher, Vice-president, Bob Pickering and Secretary-treasurer, Mary Lou Rathbun, the qual- ifying students actively promoted their ideals and successfully furthered high standards of character Library Helpers The various duties oi the library require a small army to finish the work of the day efficiently. One person could hardly do this alone so helpers are chosen from each class to assist the chief librarian. You will find one student always at the desk ready to check in books, give information regarding hooks, or receive money from fines. Notices for hooks “now ready for use” and overdue hooks also are under the chief librarian's supervision. LIBRARY HELPERS—FRONT ROW—left to right: Joan Pfeifer, Leota Desonia, Miss Wadd.

Enlre Nous had a very successful year in 1953, led by Carol Kauppi, President; Doris Simonson, vice president; Lois Kiiskinen, Secretary; Shirley Nurmi, Treasurer; Gwerr Staff. Sergeant-at-arms; and adviser, Miss Aure. Their pur- pose is to study women’s professions. Entre Nous began its activities by decorating the halls and a float for the Homecoming celebration. John Hanson was sponsored as candidate for King of Hearts and reigned over the 1952 Turnabout dance. At Christmas the annual candy-cane sale was held and toys were given to the welfare children. “The Night Before The Ely Game” was the theme of their pep assembly. Before the new initiates came in, a Pot-luck supper was served for the old members. As a money-making project members sold cards for all occasions followed by a semi-formal initiation for the new members. During the year various speakers spoke on wo- men’s professions and jobs. A spring banquet at the Coates ended the year. Muriel and Darlene looked well pleased over the sale of a candy cane to Lee Shoquist.
