COMMISSIONER OF FINANCE TED MUNROE — The efficiency expert and com- petent treasurer. His accomplishments are wide- spread and his interests varied. Ted has something to do with almost every activity on the campus. Undoubtedly the most important work by the Council has been the establishing of a new interclass competition. The idea arose from a desire to stage a Junior-Senior football game. While the matter was being discussed in a Council meeting, several members suggested a regular interclass competition to cover the academic, social and athletic fields. Numerous ideas were taken up and discarded; none seemed to be fair to all classes. From the hodge-podge of suggestions, a final plan was drawn up. It has been the work of the Council to supervise, regulate, and put over the different divisions. A great deal of spirit has been aroused, due to the close athletic contests and fiercely contested academic averages. Everyone in the school has had the chance to perform for his class in one way or another. A chance for athletic recognition has been created for those who did not quite make the varsity teams. They can now have just as much fun playing on their class teams. The size of the class assumes no relative importance in academic fields since averages are used. Therefore you can see that the aims of the Student Council have been two-fold; first to create enthusiastic school spirit, and secondly to institute worthwhile activities that will prove beneficial to the school.

COMMISSIONER OF ACADEMICS JIM GAMBLE — The philosopher and non-conformist of the group. Known for his indefatigable sarcasm and cynical wit. Jim is the only Junior on the Coun- cil. He is valuable to the group for being a neutralizer of the ultra-conservative elements. Instigated by the pleadings of all the faculty a new complete merit system was established. The work was done, for the most part, by Jim Gamble. Formerly the method of demerit giving varied with the humor of the teacher. There was much grumbling on the part of the students, who felt that there was no basis for appealing the demerits. Now the lists are posted in all the rooms; there can be no argument, since the teacher merely refers the offense to the list and deals out the agreed upon demerits. COMMISSIONER OF ATHLETICS THORNDYKE MACKAY— The best athlete in the school and hero-worshipped by all the students. Modest as to his endeavors, Thorny ' s ability and popularity have kept him on the Student Council for three years. 17
