The success of the play was due primarily to the un- liring ellorts of Mrs. Ashbrook and Sister Mary lirances. Our ollicers this year were Mary Louise Bishop, jzrciitfclll. and Eugenia Moore, .iet'1'elt1ry. For our Spring presentation we gave the mystery-comedy, zlllzrzfer in tt INllH17lL'I'j', which de- lighted the whole audience. We can conlidently state that this was the club's most successful and popular year. The city-wide Debating League was expanded to include eight schools this year. The extra de- bates provided more opportunities for members to gain experience and familiarity with the sub- ject: Universal Conscription in Wrirtime. We learned a great deal by working together, helping one another under the guiding spirit of Sister Teresa, our moderator. Witli Chris as president and Regina as secretary, the Debating Club was eminently successful in attaining its two-fold goal: to be first, good speakers, and second, good debaters. lilfil Hill. lt!!

The Sludwzl C ozmcil l'rc.ti1lc 111 V ice-P1'e.rizf 0111 Secr'elt1ry -'I'1'w1.n'11r'w' The Student Council is the governing body of the Student Government Association. The Coun- cil meets each week to discuss current problems and to lind ways and means by which these prob- lems can be solved. This year, under the leader- ship of Alice Emmet, with Kay Harrigan as vice- president and Mary jo McQuail as secretary, the Council decided to revise the duties of the othcers and to extend membership to the presidents of all the major organizations in the school, This change will enable each group participating in the various activities to have a representative who will make known its respective needs to the Council, and in this way achieve greater unity among all the groups. Alice Emmet Kathryn Harrigan Mary .lo McQuail The Council, with the consent and cooperation of the student body, established the honor system in all the study halls. Mother Margaret Mary graciously yielded to the request of the Student Council that the two lower and two upper classes be allowed to have a joint tea dance this year. The president reminded the girls that such privi- leges called for greater responsibility on their part, which, if properly discharged, will merit further concessions in the future. At all times the Student Council has tried to keep in mind the betterment of the citizenship of the students and the principles on which George- town was founded. Left In riglvl: S. Owings, S.

The paper is laid out by the editor Chris Anne Montgomery, and associate editors l.ouise Fee and .loan O'Neill. Assignments are given, and at last all articles are approved and sent to the printer. He prints the dummy sheets to be corrected, laid out and returned. Finally our brainchild arrives and surveying it, we decide that it is worth all the blood, sweat, and tears.
