Carol Clause and Adrienne George were initiated last year. Membership in the society may be secured only through a local chapter.

(2) They must be in the upper third of their class in general scholastic standing at the time of their election. (3) They must have done superior work in some phase of journalistic or creative endeavor. (4) They must be recom- mended by the adviser or by the committee governing publications.

Quill and Scroll was organized April 10, 1926, by a group of high school advisers for the purpose of encouraging and rewarding individual achievement in journalism and allied fields. The Society has always taken an active part in raising standards in its field and in directing the course of high school journalism. More recently Quill and Scroll Corporation was formed for the purpose of administering the business affairs of the Society and ad- ministering Quill and Scroll Foundation. : Back Row — C.
