thirty-two SPECIAL LETTER AWARDS Left to right- Lucille E. Specikmon, Mory Elizabeth l-logon, Dorothy .leon Stork. George W. Nixon. HE custrm of awarding Letters to pupils. other than athletes, was in- augurated this year at St. Agnes. After due deliberation the faculty chose the four students pictured above as the first of many, they hope, to merit these special awards. Lucille Speakman, a senior and editor-in-chief of THE LAMB, although a member of St. Agnes student body since November of this school year displayed unusual initiative ability and interest in school activities. Par- ticularly is she to be commended for her untiring zeal and labor in behalf of the Year Book. Mary Elizabeth Hogan,, a sophomore, has spent all her school days at St. Agnes. Sweet and gracious at all times, one never hesitates to ask a favor of Mary Elizabeth. She fills the office of secretary of the Sodality, 'treasurer of her class and assistant librarian with an earnestness and interest that are admired by faculty and students. Hours outside class time were smilingly given to sorting, mending. and labeling books when the cataloguing of the library was in progress. A graduate of St. Agnes Grade School, Dorothy Jean Stark spent the first two years of high school elsewhere but she returned to her Alma Mater as soon as a complete four-year course was offered. Dorothy has been an honor student throughout her two years at St. Agnes High School. As pre- fect of the Sodality of Our Lady, she has evinced a zeal for all its activities. She too gave generously of her spare time in library and secretarial work. Twelve years in St. Agnes is the record of George Nixon's school career. However, this is not the only accomplishment of which he may truthfully boast. Unable to take an active part in athletics he was always on hand to take tickets, supply transportation or do any job that was waiting for a willing worker. His achievements as senior class president and associate editor of THE LAMB have attained heights that will serve as goals towards which his successors may look with apprehension. g Signed by?
