Two representatives and their nurse friends, from a Wash- ington school of nursing, offer information on a very worth- while career. Guidance Qffered In judging the students, we must not be harsh, for on occasion, they display worthwhile sentiments of the kind that cannot be imitated or falsified. One such occasion was the Voice of Democracy Contest given as part of the Veterans Day Assembly in November. The school con- test winner, Steve Braswell, won honors in the county contest. College Night was 'initiated by the Guidance Depart- ment for the purpose of familiarizing students with both area and out-of-state colleges. hir. VVilliam G. Pyles, principal of the Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School, spoke on the importance and advisability of a college education. The audience, composed of students and parents, then dispersed for private conferences. Marcy Lynn and Mr. Arthur watch intently as Faye Yarbrough records her Voice of Democracy speech, and Tim Bailer raises his hand critically.
