THE HUSTLER COUNCIL livery pupil at Harrison is a Hustler, and since there are too many to meet regularly, a delegate and an alternate are elected from each division room to represent their respective divisions in meetings held once a month. This group elects officers, but as it, too, is large, the executive council, con- sisting of officers and committee chairmen, meets every Tuesday and Friday the seventh period. At these meetings, plans for the improvement of the school are made. These are presented to the delegates and are either re- jected or accepted by their vote. A The council's chief aim is to look after the students' interests. During the year many things have been accomplished by the various committees. The Soap and Towel Committee, headed by Jack Friedman, collected ten cents from every pupil, thus furnishing soap and towels for the washrooms. The Pin Committee, headed by Gertrude ltlerek, selected the design for the Hustler pins and sold about three thousand. The Clean-Up Campaign was the main project for the spring semester, with Sol Vollen. for general chairman. Committees were elected to manage the various duties of the campaign and secured the cooperation of many outside groups. The Scrap Book Committee, with Mabel Larson as chairman, collected reports of all committees and outside groups, assembled them artis- tically in our scrap book, and sent. it to the Association of Commerce to bc judged. The Grammar School Committee, headed by Gertrude Herek, con- ducted the Clean-Up Campaign at the grammar schools in Harrison 's dis- trict, and the Parochial School Committee, headed by Florence Moskwa, took care of the parochial schools. The Business Men's Committee, headed by Milton Kukac, secured the co-operation of the business men ofthe neighborhood, the VVomen's Committee, headed by Sophie Miller, obtained the co-operation of the women. 'To give Harrison publicity outside of school by means of daily newspapers, radio, etc., an outside Publicity Com- mittee headed by George Kvidera was selected, and the Inside Publicity was managed by Sarah Berkovitz and Bessie Borshevsky. The Assembly Program Committee, with Audrey Lundmark at its head, prepared pro- grams for presentation at Assembly. The exhibit in the show-case was con- ducted by the Show Case Committee, with Sophie Tritshik as chairman. The Lost and Found is under the care of Hypatia Mileko. .During the fall semester Thanksgiving collections were made and baskets filled for the poor. XVhen Christmas came, collections were again taken to buy dolls, which were dressed by students. These dolls were distributed at the annual Christmas party given for the poor children.
