Our student council, the governing body of Eastern, has just completed a very successful year. With a near perfect record for participation in the discussion on the part of each representative, the regular sessions of the council have been the scene of many lively debates. Dur- ing the Hrst semester, under the leadership of Zane Amell, the constitution was given a complete revision and funds for an exchange assembly were started. The council also did commendable work on special features at our first homecoming football game. The second half of our school year, with Romayne Hicks as prexy,,' found the council immediately plunged into the midst of a maga- zine subscription campaign. We went over the top against a quota of 32,600 and gained a new record of S2,72Z.50, a national mark to date. The rest of the semes- ter was spent in organizing a school council, planning a band day,', and setting up the ballots for the coming election on the voting machines. The council also voted to move the date of the student council election ahead one week. As usual delegates attended the Five-A council meeting held the First semester at Eastern High School and the second semester at Battle Creek High School.

The Boys' League introduced a new system this semester by dividing into smaller groups and selecting their own advisors to act as discussion and activity guides. Several general meetings and a dance were features of their season. Putting their best foot forward and accomplishing great things are the leaders of the largest organizations of the school-the Girls' and Boys' League, of which every student is a member. Friendships made through this organization will remain always in the hearts of these girls as a lasting memory of their high school days. Two informal dances were spon- sored this year by the Girls' League, The Jingle Belle jivel' in December and K'Anchors A-sway in April. M. Huff, Vice-Presidentg M. M. Helman, Treasurerg D.
