DEDICATION

We, the class of 1941, dedicate our annual to our advisers, Miss Sanbe and Mr. Weaver .','.'

In appreciation of her untiring efforts and cooperation in all our class activities, we thank Miss Sanbe. Her amiability and congeniality made our work easier and more pleasant to accomplish. Her thoughts and active participation assisted us in producing worthwhile undertakings.

In our moments of deepest despair she cheered us, and in our "moments" she deflated us, in keeping with her standards. In the future we shall always remember one whose friendship, help, and understanding have given us a foothold on the ladder of success.

The service which Mr. Weaver contributed during our high school years has been invaluable to the functions of our class. His efforts to make a success of all social and scholastic activities have been untiring and have made our financial matters prosper so as to keep us clear of the "red". His conscientious advice on scholastic aptitude, proper selection of further educational facilities, and good citizenship has stimulated much thought on the part of us students. In addition to his competency and efficiency, we may depend upon his friendliness in the coming years.

FOREWORD

â&#x20AC;˘ â&#x20AC;˘ â&#x20AC;˘

In this panorama of chaos and isms, the youth of the world are being bombarded with theories of government and economics. As graduates leaving the campus of Springfield High School, we believe our training has been such that we shall be useful, successful, and active citizens fortified to constrain the existence of any retrogressive ideas and plans for social benefit.

Living in a country where liberty is the pass word; where free speech, freedom of religion, and the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness are accepted facts, we future citizens wish to do our part to preserve these common ideals.

Therefore, the class of 1941, as a testimony of its faith in the democratic way of life, takes this opportunity to set forth as the theme of the annual, Americanism.

On behalf of the class of 1941, I wish to acknowledge the sincere efforts of all who cooperated in the production of this book. There can be no more appropriate theme than Americanism; it expresses the underlying thoughts in our everyday actions.

In the years to come we shall remember the aspirations of this. book and let them set an example to pattern our lives after. " Millard Beatty, President.

An eminent statesman once said, "America will continue to keep on prospering and growing in greatness if its people will continue, first, to take an interest in their fellow-citizens of every kind, and, secondly, to place public good ahead of private gain." In the twelve years of our acquaintanceship with the administrative personnel at Springfield High School, their first line of defense has been their respect for all personalities so that everyone through freedom and faith may bring his highest attributes to society, no matter what may await him.

Only when the creators of human destinies align themselves with the persistent revereI]t i<?-.eal of human worth will new vistas of life open such as man has never .experienced. Then, and only then, will people no longer be ¡afraid to' live in every experience, painful or joyous; to live in gratitude for every moment.

May the faculty so guide and direct their efforts that each student may feel the existence of "equal rights for all; privileges for none."

APPRECIATION

Springfield High School to the casual observer is just another school. but to us, the students of the graduating class of 1941, it is a second home, a place where we spend one-half our waking hours. In this our temple of learning is a kindly understanding man whom we all look upon as a gentleman of the highest degree, one to whom we can turn when we need advice and a helping hand, one who never fails us-our most honored and revered Supervising Principal. Mr. Harvey C. Sabold.

During our four years in Springfield High School outstanding records, both scholastic and athletic, have been achieved. Assisting in these accomplishments has been the gracious personality of our principal.

His sterling qualities; true school spirit. sincere social guidance, and untiring cooperation which have made our sojourn here a happy one deserve our commendation. We wish to show our deepest respect and gratitude to our Principal. Mr. Milton L. Smith.

Unseen by:cinyone in actual school life, the five members of the School Board labor behind the scenes of regular school administration to further the interests of Springfield High School.

The Board governed by a cooperative attitude functions smoothly to promote the general welfare of the school. It has faith in the ability of the pupils of our school and demonstrates its trust by assisting in the expansion and continuance of pupil participation in varied activities; as, our newly uniformed band, athletic contests, and cultural and practical exhibitions.

Officers: PRESIDENT VICE-PRESIDENT SECRETARY TREASURER

Mr. A. L. Cassel Mr. iliff Mrs. Yenney Mr. L. Taylor

P. T. A. Ably headed by Mr. A. L. CasseL the P. T. A. is a well-functioning group working for the betterment of our school.

The aim of the association is to promote a sympathetic understanding of the school and its problems on the part of both the parents and the teachers.

Among the many functions of the P. T. A. is the awarding of two annual scholarships to some deserving members of the senior class to be chosen on the bases of scholarship, good citizenship and school spirit, evidence of need, and ability to attack and solve new problems. In addition, the P. T. A. provides medical and dental care for underprivileged youngsters.

Officers: PRESIDENT VICE-PRESIDENT RECORDING SECRETARy CORRESPONDING SECRETARy TREASURER

William Wood, Jr. Edward Carroll Maynette Reid Elmira Justison Aaron Morrison

Alumni The Alumni has had three meetings since the inception of the school year at which times routine business was disposed of; as, the election of officers and the means of raising funds for the annual award to the senior displaying the highest degree of scholastic aptitude.

During the Christmas holidays their annual get-together was held at the Hi-Top Country Club.

As has been the custom each year, the boys and girls of the Alumni again pitted their skill against the varsity basketball teams on January 28. The girls met defeat, but the boys proved that they were still the champs.

Education is the life blood of democracy. It means the difference between an intelligent well-informed, happy citizen and a passive unresisting automaton of tyranny. Because of this the American high school system, which is unequaled in all the world, is equipping its future citizens not only with a knowledge of rights and privileges but also with an understanding of the responsibilities which an individual must shoulder in order to enjoy these rights and privileges.

As in a democracy the government is for the people, by the people, and of the people; so in an American high s::hool the education is for the people, by the people, and of the people. There is n0 class nor racial division in the system; all must benefit for "a chain is as strong as its weakest link."

The way the graduates of today feel about democracy, and the way they act on¡ their feelings will assume an import.ance in the progress of our country for, indeed, "the foundation of every state is the education of its youth."

THE SCRIVENER

1941

FRESHMAN YEAR On a bright September morning in 1937 we, the "forty-oners", entered into the "diploma derby" in a four lap attempt at secondary education. The race began in the homerooms of Miss Eerry, Mr. Anderson, and Mr. Kauffman where Student Council representatives were quickly selected. These representatives: Millard Beatty, president; Richard Cassel, vice-president; Mary Robinson, secretary; Martin Conner, treasurer; Barbara Bien, Minnie Wilson, Betty Daveler, John Siegle, and George Drew formed our political front for the year.

Our boys were the backbone of a successful junior high school football team. Under Mr. Schopf they chalked up four wins and only two losses; thus they completed a very memorable gridiron career.

Although the upper classmen denoted us as mere "freshies", they did approve of some of our girls, as dates to dances can testify.

We saw Richard Baldwin's mural "The Spirit of Athletics" completed and also the entrance of the National Honor Society into our school.

We were given two excellent class advisers, Miss Sanbe and Mr. Weaver, who at the time probably didn't realize what they were letting themselves in for.

SOPHOMORE YEAR Having gotten our "second wind" during the summer, we returned as sophomores to rooms 3, 4, and 5 where we were met by Miss Bastian, Mr. Stephens, and Mr. R. K. Smith.

To guide us in our class activities we elected Minnie Wilson, president; Millard Beatty, vice-president; Margaret McCarty, secretary; Margaretta Compton, treasurer.

We began to "soph-isticate" ourselves by attending the Thanksgiving Dance with Ed Hamp's music.

The football team saw several of our boys doing their best. The varsity found valuable assets in "Reds" Walsh, "Jughaid" Beatty, "Pooch" Messick, and "Soup" Campbell. . Midyear examinations soon loomed as obstacles in our race. However, we hurdled these necessary evils in time to attend the operetta "Harmony Hall."

Our big moment of the year soon came when we held the Soph-Hop a la '41. The pastel decorations received admiration from all. Miraculously enough the dance was a financial success. (Well, anyway, we broke even.)

Again came the scourge of the schooL and we took examination number two under our belt. The race had now reached its halfway mark.

1941

THE SCRIVE.NER JUNIOR YEAR With the homestretch in sight, our junior year saw us preparing for the crown of seniority.

We elected Millard Beatty, class president; John Siegle, vice-president; Ann Yochum, secretary; and Margaret McCarty, treasurer.

Sports became more prominent than ever-win, lose, or draw our boys were on the football field, basketball floor, and track. The girls did brilliant work also, for they assisted in completing an undefeated season in hockey. \Xlhite ChrisLuas won our unanimous support. One of our homerooms with Miss Bastian at its head won this contest for the second consecutive year.

After exams were swallowed with a bit of cramming, our next thought was February 29th when we "turned tables" on the girls and finished the day off with a Leap Year dance.

On March seventh, Margaret McCarty, Ann Yochum, William Burnet, Robert Whitmoyer, and Jack Parrish were inducted into the National Honor Society.

In rapid succession we aided in the presenting of three one-act plays, received class rings, and began plans for the biggest success of the year, the Junior-Senior Reception. This was our last official act as juniors.

SENIOR YEAR Our senior year saw us enter the homestretch with one eye on diplomas and the other eye on activities.

Those out for football not only saw much action but also won the American Legion Group Three championship award.

Millard Beatty won the political prize of the year when we elected him our class president. Joseph Holscher was chosen vice-president; Margaret McCarty, secretary; and Dick Schmidt, treasurer.

Our Student Council had Wayne Owens, president; Bill Burnet, vice-president; Margaret McCarty, secretary; Jack Parrish, treasurer; John Siegle, parlimentarian; Dick Schmidt, and Joe Holscher.

Mr. Weaver, custodian of the Christmas cards, had his hands full keeping track of blue and white boxes whose sale ended up on the profit side.

We did our share to boost patriotism with "American Passport" by Dana Thomas.

As the "swinging" seniors, we inaugurated dancing at lunch time and after basketball games. We held a Turnabout Dance, attended the Soph-Hop and were guests at the Junior-Senior Prom and the Alumni Dance.

The Washington "blitzkrieg" kept us in a state of riot and bedlam for three days. _ c~ • .::r-&--=:- ~,,- -, ~ , • • _~,~1' a... cr-O Q; ~:/"/: We recuperat~d m tIme to. prop)-' o~cv ~o(:JC/) A' vide our school WIth a super ch:nax J' 1 class night which was very ~YPIcal. ~;: :,rvo~o.;j?'..::p-f;.o-J> / The. race ended hc: pplly but '4./...::J~-::::' ~o"" ce:::... sadly WIth the presentatIon of the ~ 0.::::- ..c..

Its beam reflects the Cause of justice, freedom And the world's tranquility Found alone on the mighty Shore of This, Our-America, the Home of the brave and the Master of no slave.

American Passport In an atmosphere of mystery, comedy, and romance the members of the senior class presented the typical American family in "American Passport" on December sixth and seventh under the competent directing of Miss Geiger and Mr. Maderia.

As the lights were dimmed, 0 hush came over the audience, and the curtain rose on an aggravated father, Ed Hamilton (Jack Parrish), whose wife Bertha (Dot Cologne) was an attractive, intelligent club woman who was easily excited and accepted things as they appeared on the surface. Mr. Hamilton was much disturbed by his family's inability to get along with the neighbors, their lack of patriotism, and their small concern over such inconsequential matters as food. His expostulating was interrupted by the entrance of his radical heir, Dick (William Burnet), the current heartache of Sybil Jennings (June Field).

Dick's romance was progressing smoothly until it was noticed that Louella (Virginia Clair and Joyce Wieder) was also present and extremely interested in the conversation. In spite of coaxing and bribery, she showed no intention of leaving. Then the father, sensing the situation, understood Dick's frantic signals and made Louella leave the room with him. However, quite a few romantic difficulties arose because of the democratic ideals of Bill Wilson (Lloyd Tircuit), Judy Hamilton's (Irene Smith and Margaret McCann) part time fiance.

As in every family there may be a rather wealthy domineering relative who voices her frank opinion regardless of people's feelings; so in this one was Aunt Jen (Bernice Griffith). She was a typical God-fearing, democratic, American citizen who did not approve of the way her nephew raised his family and threatened to disinherit him several times.

Mrs. Schwartz (Grenath Duck and Jane Ebenbach), displeased with the goings on in the Hamilton family, caused quite a bit of excitement and amusement by telling them just what she thought of their communistic ideas. To emphasize her views, she attempted to remove George Washington's picture as she believed "he would turn over in his grave if he knew he were hung in such a communistic atmosphere." Mr. Hamilton prevented her from doing this by quoting part of the Constitution.

To intensify the family turmoil Mr. Craig, (Joe Holscher) who was Mr. Hamilton's employer, discharged him because of a misunderstanding caused by his wife and son.

The complications became untangled when the father at last came into his own rights and announced that he was the head of the family. He warned them all to forget their former ideas about the government and to practice good God-fearing patriotism.

Although many committees do not receive so much recognition as members of the cast, they are essential to the success of the play, for they have many important duties to fulfill. No little credit goes to the stage and property managers, prompters, and ticket committee who do not receive the applause but are absolutely necessary for a successful performance.

Washington Trip We seniors began our merrymaking via two Greyhounds before a flock of doting and doubting parents. Perfect weather christened our start at 7:45 A. M. (15 minutes late) Monday morning April 7. Less than four hours later we; that is, those who survived (Dutch included) the sneezing powder and elastic band attack, arrived at the Franciscan Monastary. It was here that our boys began enlarging their feminine acquaintances; MacGrath, incorporated, taking the lead.

Our next stop was at the corner of 15th and M streets in the N. W. section of Washington, where we established our temporary home at the New Colonial Hotel. The girls, assigned to the seventh floor, luckily communicated by the way of the elevator; the boys made the second floor by the stairs.

Lunch proved an ecstasy of double orders and ice cream as the waiters held forth for the stakes-usually 10 cents a head.

It was at Mt. Vernon, however, that we began seeing double with Mickey and Wayne showing us how. From there we went to Lee's Mansion, Arlington Cemetery, and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. After witnessing the change of guard, we viewed the Ampitheatre and the Lincoln Memorial.

Returning to the hotel, we prepared for dinner which proved to be both a social and gastronomical success.

Jack and "Whitey" drove us to the Congressional Library. And, after seeing the home of every book published in the United States, as well as many foreign publications such as Gutenberg's Bible, we deluged the Capital which was starring Tommy Dorsey's Orchestra (minus Tommy).

Miss Sanbe, Miss Haldeman, Mr. Weaver, and Mr. Smith were anticipating an early "turn-in" in preparation for another strenuous day of sight-seeing. However, much to everyone's surprise, there were frequent disturbing noises from one A. M. on. Little annoyances such as firecrackers, pajama parades, "busted" windows, and 3 A. M. snacks seemed to aggravate hotel detectives into sponsoring a "lobbyist" convention. We were well represented with over twenty male delegates, including the Student Council President, Scrivener Editor and Class President. During the rest (?) of the night things were as quiet as a cat in a dog pound.

Arising as early as our previous night's shenanig'ans would permit, we hobbled down to breakfast and ate a hearty meal. Late as usual, we were rushed into the bus and rolled on our way. The morning's tour took in the Bureau of Printinq and Engraving, where we saw stacks and stacks of greenbacks "floating" by, and we, the partially "flat" seniors, couldn't even touch any bills. The next stop, the Washington Monument-where we all hoped to reach the top-was finally reached. Pulling out from the monument, we turned and saw one of our lassies running toward the bus; Jane E. puffed into Jack's bus 'midst many a side remark from her fellow passengers.

On our way to the White House, we were told if we would "incorporate" with our guide we would move much faster. Nor did we see much of the White Fouse; and worse, we almost lost Miss Sanbe in the fountain (Kenny, you shouldn't push young women around).

As we drove through the city to the Department of Justice we were asked to look at all the "bilins" with the large "columes". We arrived and were escorted through by a number of handsome young G-men. The girls forgot they were tired and spruced up to see what they could see-or get.

By this time it had dawned on most of us that Wayne and Mickey had been

Reaching the hotel about 12:30, we gobbled down a lunch so as to be ready to leave at the urgent call of Mr. Smith.

Before each tour Jack had to count noses. My, how many new faces he saw! J. Parrish had taken B. Daveler in tow and B. Burnet was seen trying to encroach on J. Stewart's property and making quite a bit of progress. Dicky Cassel came to join J. Wieder, making it more complicated.

1. Smith had gotten lost in the rear of Whitey's bus. and wasn't seen until dinner.

To us the Senate and the House were quite irripressive, even :after trudging up the entrance steps. (The stairs we had to climb were cdso quite impressive for those who had climbed the Monument.)

The next stop was the Supreme Court; those who remained .in th~ bus must have been afraid :the "House Dicks" had some friends'.' Finding the Court in session, many of us stayed later than the time allotted; cauยง~~:g us, luckily, to miss .our walk in the Zoo. We 'were somewhat tardy in reaching St. Albans; We were rushed through .the many chapels and couldn't appreciate the beauty of the structure-though most of us would have appreciated a b~d more.

Strangely enol1gp the.Hoors were somewhat quiet; no firecrackers or broken windows. Yes, ':'Scllip/~ what happened to you that night? Everyone got a little more sleep thancin the previous night, but most of the boys and six of the loyal gii--ls were wide awake until about three-thirty, for they hoped that two of our. gentlemen friends wouldn't be sent home the following day for tardiness. . Bright and early we arose-8:15 to be exact. We were soon on our way to Smithsonian Institute, the Museum, and the New Art Gallery..Most of us sat it out for an hour and rested our feet. After looking at :relics, we left for our last meal in our home of three days. Bidding goodbye to our lonely rooms, in which we had crammed so much fun in such a little time, we were on our way to the "5 and 10". Nick-nacks (?), being bought, we all settled down for an hour's ride to the Naval Academy. We arrived just in time for the dress parade which was very thrilling. Nice looking boys go to Annapolis, eh, girls?

After a short tour of the school we roared on our homeward trek.

All was quiet 'til dusk crept upon us. "Casanova" Nemeth borrowed a Greyhound Napkin so Tinny wouldn't slobber on his shoulder. Jack, the bus driver. crooned to. his sleepy little charges all the way home. even after they had been refreshed' at Oxford.' In the second bus Milton's musical chorus in the front vied for honors with Earney's in the rear.

When all the preliminaries were over, we began to work and play in earnest. Our class placed one man on the first eleven and several others on the reserve squad. Some of our ever-present sports' enthusiasts were on the hockey and basketball teams.

However, we were not to be out-done socially as evidenced by the Junior-Senior Prom. The follOWing day we inherited the long coveted rights of seniority.

The words of Alfred Austin, "While there "is one untrodden tract for "intellect or will, and men are free to think and act, life is worth living still", are truly characteristic of the freedom to enjoy activities guaranteed by democracy.

Doing those things which give not only pleasure. but also a chance to widen one's scope of knowledge and to fulfill his desire to participate in a particular activity, which indirectly may help to prepare the individual for a vocation, is the sterling worth of a well-balanced program. The school system allows all students an¡ equal chance to select t1.leir favorite activity-regardless of. race, creed,. or color; none are excluded.

This freedom is, indeed, a necessity because it helps to prepare the . youth of today for an active adult life in the world of tomorrow. It helps to make them better, more active citizens ready for any emergency.

May the freedom which democ.Tacy allows us continue as a valuable factor in our play of life.

Varsity Football 01

On September 7, a call from Coaches Emmerling and Beardsley brought together for the first time a squad destined to reach the peak in the annals of football history in Springfield High. A good nucleus of seniors, all seasoned veterans, contributed to a fine gridiron machine; Messick, Beatty, Walsh, CampbelL J. Otton, K. MacGrath, Murray, and Woolley were the outstanding grid men from previous years. These boys, having played together for three years, brought their football careers to an end in a blaze of glory by winning the American Legion trophy for group three.

May this fine fighting spirit become traditional with the oncoming teams.

From a very light but enthusiasti::: squad, Coach Schopf molded a team whose fighting spirit and good sportsmanship were on a par with the high standards set by squads of previous years. Although- the season was not sensational in the wins and losses, it was spectacular in the way the "Cougar Kittens" acquitted themselves like experienced punters.

A few of the boys who stamped themselves as the future stars of Springfield High were Leslie Wright, Charles Small, Roy Lowrie, "Reds" Conwell, and Bill Hope.

Climaxing the two wins, one loss, and three ties was the singular honor brought to Springfield when Dorothy Moffett was selected for center-half on the All-Delaware County Hockey Team. Other senior mainstays who helped capture laurels were Ann Yochum, Margaret McCarty, Jane Ebenbach, Annetta McHenry, Florence Ludman, and Virginia Clair.

Although the number of losses was greater than the wins, many of the league encounters were close, being lost in the closing minutes of play.

Records were perhaps better than previous years. Kenny MacGrath led the team in individual scoring with 143 points; he finished second in league competition. The foul shooting this year was above average with S4 % for Springfield and 43 % for their opponents.

Leading in the last quarter in many games, the team was saved from defeat by the superb playing of the guards who were hard pressed by the opposing forwards.

The youth of America is becoming musically conscious; proof of this is found in its enthusiasm for cultural activities. The foundation for the band was laid in the orchestra where many of its mainstays have been playing for some time.

Although its program is not an extensive one, it is essential to the wellbeing of the assemblies.

Niki Pleads His Case

THE SCRIVENER

1941'

A Waltz Dream On Friday and Saturday, April 25 and 26, nearly everyone was either on the stage or in the auditorium of Springfield High S:::hool when "A Waltz Dream" by Oscar Straus was presented. "fhe musical production, lauded "one of the best", was under the able direction of Harold 1. von Muller and his capable assistants, Miss Sarah Berry, dramatics; Miss Ethel McNieL dances; and other faculty members.

The story centered around Maximilian (Claude Campbell), domineering King of Sylvania, who returned home with his daughter, Princess Helene (Ernestine Pirimian). This lovely prince.3s, though still in love with Prince Rupert (William Burnet), an exile by the King's decree, had promised to marry the mysterious Lieutenant Niki (Norris Rumsey), who was with them. The court was pleased to see that the obstinate H.elene had finally selected a husband, as her marriage would save the country from bankruptcy, would stabilize the dynasty, and quiet the populace.

NikL resplendent in full uniform, had been chosen as Prince Consort because of his resemblance to Prince Rupert, Princess Helene's childhood sweetheart, who was then in England, The lowly Hussar found Helene dull and preferred his life as a soldier, but he obeyed his emperor's insistent command that he marry her. He arrived in Sylvania where he promptly fell in love with Kay Robinson (Dorothy Cologne), a touring American artist, who sang in¡a little cafe. Kay, not knowing he was the Prince Consort-to-be, was heart broken when Maximilian and a foppish courtier (Lloyd Tircuit) interrupted Niki's spectacular profession of affection and demanded his obedience to the court.

Not only had Niki and Montschi (Don Murray) been pursued by the king, but also by two rival suitors. Sigismund (Jack Woolley), a suitor, kidnaped Niki and Rupert and planned to replace Niki at the wedding. Niki and Rupert, who had been tricked by Sigismund and shipped off to London in the King's private plane, but who overpowered their pilot, returned to Sylvania just as the wedding was about to begin.

Helene was overjoyed to see Rupert, and the king was forced to consent to their wedding when he learned that Rupert had negotiated a foreign loan for Sylvania. Niki was then free to marry Kay. A double wedding was in prospect as the play closed.

The faculty assistants, contributing to the success of this production, were Henry J. Kauffman, stage; Richard K. Smith, tickets; Mrs. Marion GottshalL costumes; Miss Estelle Heiss, scenic effects, and Miss Elvira Sanbe.

Assisting the well-coached cast were the numerous student committees and choruses; namely, the specialty chorus, dance chorus, property, stage, business, costumes, and program committees who had important duties to fulfill. Although these did not receive so much recognition as the leading roles, they were very essential to the success of the performance.

Helping to make the setting most effective were the scenic committee and stage crew who worked long and hard to exemplify the ornate, elaborate design of the palatial residence. The fine detailed stage work was characteristic of the outstanding art work being done by Springfield students.

All in all, the entire operetta personnel worked equitably to insure you a worthwhile evening's entertainment.

(Assistant Business Manager), A. Yochum (Business Manager), W. Editor) J. Siegle (Editor-in-Chief), J. Parrish (Assistant Editor), D. Moffett, Carlisle.

Clair, R. Cassel. W. Shead.

Inasmuch as the purpose of an annual is to preserve the memories of one's achievements and activities, we have made the Scrivener more personalized than ever, for it contains candid shots of each senior as well as life on the campus.

It seems appropriate to the times that we should link our activities with the feeling of patriotism and democracy that has been ever present in our life here.

We can only hope that the efforts of our staff have produced a yearbook worthy of our experiences here at Springfield.

THE SCRIVENER

1941

Non-A.thletic Awards The success of any democratic organization depends upon its ability to recognize true effort and a::complishment; so it has been in Springfield.

We believe in recognizing services performed, and it is lor this purpose that we have the non-athletic awards. These letters are awarded in recognition of services rendered on a point basis. Points, given for every extracurricula activity except those pertaining to sports, are awarded on the bases of the importance of the activity and the cooperation given by the students; and the award goes to about 10% of the class.

We wish to congratulate the receivers of these letters for theirs was a deserving effort.
