Established in 1969, Chilympiad has grown into the State Chili Cook-off to determine Texas' representative to the World Chili Cook-off in Terlingua. Many things go into the making of the Chilympiad. As well as local civic groups, SMHS students did their part. The P' , , Science Club sponsored a slush booth, the Yarbrough Debate Society was in charge of a coin toss, and Auto Mechanics entered the contest, too, with their own unique brand of chile, in place of a car's engine. The girls of Office Education Association pitched in as well, by constructing a float for the Chilympiad parade. Also in- volved in the parade were the Fiattler Band, majorettes and cheerleaders, Viffesf y 'x ii i gig.: ix A ..YQ i if A TM X Q ai 6 V y K 1 In W 3 sez? 5.

ln high schools across the nation there is an organization for students who have at least a B average for their high school years. The National Honor Society at San Marcos High School is affiliated with this National organization. Members are cho- sen on scholarship, service, character, and leadership. Being a member entitles them to wear the NHS pin and carry the card. Only 10W of the junior class and 151, of the senior class may have this honor. Many activities were performed by the NHS this year. Some of these consisted of a spirit train for the homecoming pep rally, a Christmas service project at Care Inn, carols and a Christmas party. Sponsors for the NHS are changed an- nually. Mrs. Jean Klipple and Mrs. Martha Nell Holmes were this year's sponsors. They had the jobs of coordinating meet- ings and helping to decide the activities. During elections sponsors are in control ofthe meeting and also oversee the in- duction ceremony. 'S Nw
