national honor society The National Honor Society was first organized at West Lafayette High School in 1935. The second annual convo- cation was held this year honoring the members of this society. The members were inducted into the organization by Miss Ruth Sinks, sponsor, and were presented member- ship pins and certificates. Membership in the society is based on scholarship, lead- ership, character, and service. ln order to be eligible, a student must have a scholarship index of 5.0 or over. The number of members cannot exceed 'l5'M: of the senior class. The faculty considers the above requirements when voting on the members of the society. The students chosen this year have participated in one or more school activities, and have spent their time and effort to maintain the standards of our school.

hi-y Under the able leadership of its officers and the guidance of Mr. Howard Evans, sponsor, the Hi-Y Club fulfilled its primary purpose as a service club to the school and community in a number of ways. The members of Hi-Y served as ushers at football and basketball games. They planned and published foot- ball and basketball programs which were presented free to spectators at all W. L. athletic contests. Through the eFforts of Hi-Y, a special souvenir program was presented at the dedication of the new gym. Hi-Y boys sold cokes at all of the basketball games. Representatives from our club attended the State Older Boys' Conference at Anderson in November. March 31st marked the date of the District Conference held in West Lafayette. Inspiration was gained at these meetings for carrying out the club creed, to create, maintain, and extend throughout the home, school, and community, high standards of Christian character. Social affairs enjoyed were the annual Hi-Y Dance which took place in the school cafeteria on March 7th. The traditional entertainment by the iuniors was in the form of humorous skits. On March 10th the boys were hosts to their mothers at the Mother-Son ban- quet. A picnic concluded the social events for the year. ROW 1: J. Heimlich, R. Knauer, R. Hesselberth, D.
