ed a banquet for the basketball team. At this time letters were awarded to varsity and Riveter squads. Dutch ' Lon- borg of Northwestern was the main speaker. The council sponsored after-school social hours each Monday and also after-supper social hours. A new idea on the order of the K box was worked out in the form of a Student Council box in which students placed written suggestions. The biggest project of the Student Council this year was the sponsoring of a Youth Day on April 3. Approximately 150 student teachers were chosen to take charge of each class, Library, dinner hour. social room, and also janitor service. President of the Council, Wallace Hoadley, took ove-r the duties of principal. Mr. Robinson took a class card and attended various classes for the day. Miss Saygh's duties were taken over by Rose Wilson. Each teacher was given a class card and attended classes for the day. The regular teachers were required to put on an assembly and presented a good program. Publicity given Youth Day brought a graduate student of Northwestern to K. H. S. to see how the Youth Day plan was operated. Youth Day brought favorable recog- nition from many. Thus from these many activities we can agree that Pres- ident Wallace Hoadley and his Council have given Kewanee High school a most efficient administration.
