National Honor Society Involves Service National Honor Society members kept very busy this year. The new NHS Constitution required members to de- sign and work on individual service pro- jects, as well as work in the Chapter ' s service project, the Tutoring Center. Some examples of these individual ser- vice projects were the St. Joe Blood Drive, the paperback exchange, the De- velopment Office assistance program and the SGTGFL (setup-the-gym-for-li- turgy) crew! Members attended regular meetings which were run by President Joy Smith and advisor, Mrs. Derwent. Officers were Secretary Mary Riordan, Treasurer Margaret Coglianese and Vice-President Jesse Agostino. Cheryl LeeVan was the director of the tutoring service. This year NHS ran a successful Trivial Pur- suit Tournament at a November dance as well as assisted with the bi-annual Career Day. In December, 32 new mem- bers were inducted bringing the total membership to 58. At the Induction Fr. Andre Leveille gave an inspiring talk. The high point of the Spring semester is a 40 hour away from school retreat, directed by Bro. Philip Smith.

Christmas Dance The date, December 21, the location, the South Bend Elk ' s Club, the event, the 1984 Christnnas Dance. The semi-formal dance was spon- sored by the junior class. Approximately 150 couples attended, receiv- ing opportunities to have their pictures taken next to the festively decorated Christmas tree, to drink some of Miss Grams ' delicious punch, and, of course, to dance to the sounds of This End Up. The event, which lasted from 9 PM to midnight allowed plenty of time, although not much space, for dancing. The 1984 Christmas dance afforded a whole new meaning to the term dancing close. Other highlights of the evening included watching Mrs. Hartzer and Mr. Meyer dance. So that ' s how they did it way back then! At the end of the evening, coat pockets and purses were also ransacked in search of claim tags for the check-in coatroom. All in all, the 1984 Christmas dance proved a perfect kick off to vacation. 15
