Note: May 10, 1962: Honor Society Members Tapped By Lalee Stinson Eight Elmira High School students were tapped for the honor society and the EHS second annual academic. Those students chosen were sophomores Deanna Berens, Leonard Buchholz, Judy Fuller, Ted Hienke (sic), Barbara Peterson and Evelyn Stair, and juniors James Hale and Darrell Inman. In order to be eligible for this club these students must have obtained a 3.5 accumulative grade point average. Dr. Francis Nickerson of the University of Oregon was the featured speaker for the banquet. He chose "These Wonderful Days: for the theme of his speech. "Knowledge is not Power but the use of knowledge is power," Dr. Nickerson commented on the theme of the banquet "Knowledge is Power." He went on to say that the smartest man he had ever known had chosen a career of putting out landing stakes for an air plane that dusts crops. Therefore even though this man was an intelligent man he had not found power in knowledge for he had not put that knowledge to work. James Hale, winner of the United Nations contest for Lane County, presented his winning speech. Diana Hurlbert and Ramona Fisher, valedictorian and salutatorian for the graduating class also spoke. __________________________________________________ The Register-Guard, Eugene, Lane Co., Ore., May 13, 2012: Leonard Buchholz ELMIRA - Leonard G.
