The Council is composed of its officers, home room representatives, class presidents, and representatives of extra curricular activ- ities. Under the able guidance of its advisors, Miss -loyce and Mr. Mallet, the 1959-1960 Student Council has done much to follow its purpose of advancing the general welfare of the school and its students, promoting better relation- ships between students and faculty, and providing a means for the students to decide questions concerning them. The Council undertook many tasks this year, but the one of the most im- portance was the forming of a teen-age code in co-operation with the Path- finders of Deering. The basic rules of this code were set up by a group of six, then were voted on by the Council. Other projects for this year were the concession stand at football games, the school store, new Deering banners, school handbooks, its annual llfid-Year Hop, and classes in parliamentary procedure. Many of Friday's X periods were taken up by assemblies sponsored by Student Council. In order to acquaint the student body with its governing organization the Council held meetings for each class in the auditorium. One of the best and most appreciated assemblies was the lfreshman Assembly which presented a sunnnary of the activities ol' each extra curricular club. The In- stallation of Officers was held during an assembly and club charters were distributed also. For their own enjoyment some of the members of the Council attended the State Convention in Brewer on the l3th and 14th of November where they obtained new ideas for our council. 24
