dents making the honor roll.

Chosen for Who's Who.
Students were chosen Thurs-
day morning of this week for
representation in the volume
of Who's Who in Texas High
Schools, published annually by
Baylor University. Faculty
members met and made the
selections. They tried to choose
representative students accord-
ing to the following points:
general attitude, participation
in school activities throughout
four years of high school, char-
acter and scholarship. So far
as scholarship was concerned,
the type of courses taken en-
tered into consideration. Stu-
dents taking higher math and
"sj^M^^aSurany received more
j^onsideration .than those tak-
ing easier courses in which
good grades are made more
easily.
Students chosen by the fac-
culty will be featured next
week with a sketch of each.
The five nominated for Who's
Who were Pete York, B. A.
Parrish. Mary Gaye Lester,
George Hannon and E. H.
. Felts.
