O. strives to make Great Neck High a school for the students, of the stu- dents, and by the students. Representatives to the G. O. Council were elected in each social studies class, and met twice a month to discuss and solve problems of importance to the student body. Within the framework of the G. O.

The Vignettes, an acting duo, presented several short scenes of Shaw, Wilde and Singe. The Mitchel Air Force Band played classical music as well as marching songs and the acrobatic Steeple Jacks kept the Sophomores on the edge of their seats. Arrangement and management of these and others were supervised by the Assembly Planning Committee.

O. Store. Spirit ran high at 26
