SENATE ‘- O For the past two years, the Senate has served as a forum for the discussion of problems relating to the students and their activities. In the Senate have originated many plans to help the pupils and to maintain the morale of the school. The most notable of these plans is the granting of Senate Awards to homerooms which have made the largest contribution to the school com¬ munity. President, C. C.

BOOSTERS CLUB On October 5, the Boosters Club held its first meeting. Lawrence Oliver was elected president: Stanley Morgan, vice-president; and Ldith Council, secretary-treasurer. The membership of the Boosters Club is composed of pupils who pur¬ chased the Student Activity Ticket. This year the Student Activity Ticket has had an even wider scope than it had last year. It included, last year, admittance to all home games of foot¬ ball, basketball, and baseball, and to two three-act plays. This year it included, in addition to those things just men¬ tioned, the right to the yearbook. Moreover, no one who did not belong to the club could hold any office or take part in any of the plays. Yet the price of the ticket remained the same as it was for last year. In the first term of the year, the Boosters Club gave a dance in the gymnasium: Dan Luke and his orchestra Lawrence Oliver supplied the music. The dance was very successful.

19 3 4 T H E P E A N IT T HONOR AWARDS Honor Awards are given at the end of each term on a “point” system. For the February-June, 1934. term twenty-five was the minimum number of points a student was allowed to have in order to get an honor award. An A merits three jxjints. a B, two, and a C, one jx)int. For each extra curricular activity there are a stated number of points. A student must have at least six points for scholarship, and six points for extra curricular activities. This giving of honor awards is an experimentation whose system has never been fully worked out. but it is hoped that in another year’s time the basis for each phase of the award will lie j erfectly established. The object of these honor awards is to encourage all-round development.
