Students Tapped By Brotherhood for Honor

Brotherhood

"People sometimes complain that Brotherhood is a clique— only the popular are elected. But I've worked with these kids and they are friendly. If being friendly means being popular, then these kids sure are both, said Mr. Faulhaber, sponsor. Yesterday Brotherhood initiated twenty-four new members from the 78 students nominated in homeroom. Thursday's assembly highlighted the week's Brotherhood activities. Floyd Kalber, guest speaker, spoke on "Brotherhood: Suburbia '69?" Projects that Brotherhood will undertake this year include a kool-aid drive, a money raising project for the children Biafra, and a text book drive. The Kool-aid drive will provide kool-aid for the boys in Viet Nam. Mr. Faulhaber explained, "The water in Viet Nam is not poisonness, but it is bad tasting. The Red Cross ships over large quantities of pre-

sweetened kool-aid to mix with the water." In April a Biafra money raising project will take place. At the end of the year Brotherhood will begin a textbook drive. All books collected will be donated to various prisons and orphanages. Mr. Faulhaber emphasized the qualities in a student t h a t Brotherhood looks for: integrity, the desire to help people, and pride in themselves and their school. He said, "The Society is what the student body makes it. If the student body feels that the organization has meaningthen it will be an honor to be elected." The following students were elected to Brotherhood: Freshmen include; Bruce Little, Neal Lohuis, Randy Miller, Sue Holz, Carol Mizer, and Sue Sandberg. Elected sophomores are Bill Barmeier, Bob Greising, Bill Jackson, Pat Bak, April Ever-

Another 10 students vied for contest speaker placement with Miss McChesney and Mr. Banks in the individual events. Six plays competed for first, second and third place in this

District's competition. Despite the cooperation, work, and talent molded into The Crucible cutting, Maine South did not place in this year's district contest. Maine West was a awarded third place with Of Mice And Men, Niles West received a second place rating with Antigone, and first place was awarded to Niles North for their cutting the The Lesson. Maine South received a third place rating in the overall sweepstakes in contest speaking competition—a tally of total awards given to any one school.

Total "Ralph'' Sales Disapoints Editors This year's Creative Writing Magazine, Ralph, has already been sold in English classes. However, sales are still short of the 1,000 mark which is necessary to make publication financially possible. "We must sell at least another 150 magazines or we won't be able to print the magazine," said Deb Verlench co-editor of the magazine. "To many students here at South the magazine is important. It is fun to read, and many times has as much value to the kids as does a yearl)ook." "There are a lot of kids who can really write well," continued Cathy Mabrey, also co-editor. "It would be a shame if they weren't recognized by having something in print, just because we couldn't afford to print a magazine." So far, fmhmeB have pur-
