At Southwest High 16 Tapped by Quill Group
By JOY CHERRY Correspondent Quill and Scroll National Honor Society tapped 16 new members in a red feather ceremony with the parents present, Oct. 10. These tapees are staff members of the Lancer or the Aquila and are now in their third semester of journalism. After a two week pledge period they will be inducted at the bi-annual Quill and Scroll banquet. The pledges are Steve Berlinsky, Marybeth Dittemore, Patsye Doyle, Connie Feltham, Joanne Glass, Jan Glidewell, Ken Golden, Sherri Hirsh, Carolyn O'Malley, Adrian Schwartz, Roz Yagman, Martha Zamarano, Leslie Warren, Robin Mason, Sally Kitchin and Bill White. DOUGHNUT SALE Six hundred doughnuts should keep the hungry Southwesterners satiated after school Oct. 23 and 24. In an effort to fatten the newspaper treasury, the Lancer staff plans to make close to $40 while the student body feasts. The doughnuts, varied in size and flavor, will be sold at several designated places outside the school building. HOMECOMING WORK The Student Council has begun work on the activities for Southwest's Third Homecoming. Committee plans for the dance, bonfire, parade, and coronation of the Queen are now underway. The turkeyday game, Nov. 23, will highlight the week. DEBATERS' FORMULA "Take a good look at Southwest's trophy case when next you go by," Roy French reminded Southwest students. "There are many splendid momentos enshrined there, but there isn't a single plaque, medallion, or trophy for forensics ability." Retiring undefeated from the University of Miami debate team, French spoke with the voice of experience as he challenged students to "begin to accumulate some of these prized possessions starting with this year." He summed up the debaters' plans with one word, "work."
