To create better library serv- ice, to popularize reading among students, and to interest the well qualified in librarianship as a career, were the three main goals of the Library Club this year. The club, sponsored by lVlrs. Dora Sullivan, planned its activi- ties around service to the library. The members achieved this by processing and shelving books in their proper order, thereby relieving some of the jobs in- volved in library work from the professional staff. Shelving books in their proper places was one of the main activities for Library Club members Marilyn Robson, Stacy Loux, and Teresa Bullington. Library Club 129

Thespians honor top Revelier members Outstanding speech and dra- matics arts students who excelled in Bevelier's work during the year were selected to become mem- bers of the Thespians. Resulting from hard work and participation during the Bevelier's productions, a total of six students were invited to join the Thespian society during the first semester. To become eligible for membership, these students accumulated ten Thespian points, by working on set construction and directing or acting in the plays Lo and Behold! and lVly Sister Eileen. Monthly brfeakfasts were held throughout the year at the Municipal Airport, honoring cur- rent members of the society. Business discussions and induc- tions of students who qualified for membership were held at the breakfasts. Officers of the Thespians were Eugene Woodland, presi- dent, Craig Gllker, vice-president, and Pam Plymale, treasurer. Sponsor was lVlr. Bob Davenport. 1 28 Thespians After earning the greatest number of poin ts, Sam Berry, senior, was selected outstanding Thespian member.

Partners in Christ promote serious goals Meeting twice each month, members of Partners in Christ set out to achieve the serious goals which had been set in 1967 when the club was first organized at Southside High. To promote Christian char- acter and leadership, to reach the unsaved for Christ, and to have a deeper understanding of the Bible's message were the basic purposes of the group. Guitar music by Gary Robertson and Jim Skinner brightens up the morning for members of Partners in Christ before one of their meetings. 1 30 Partners in Christ Interested members of Partners in Christ listen to Reverend Keith Simmons of V Cavanaugh Missionary Baptist Church during a February meeting. Helping to achieve these high goals, members invited local ministers and religious leaders to speak, at club meetings. ln addi- tion, members explored possibil- ities of having another city-wide crusade sometime in the future. Not all was work for Partners in Christ, however. At several early morning sessions, students gathered to sing folk songs and play guitars. PARTNERS IN CHRIST: Bottom Row:-Thomas, L.
