SENIOR CLASS AND EXECUTIVE COUNCIL THIS year, as in previous years, the work of the senior class was handled by the class officers and the Executive Council. All linancial and social plans were worked out by this group under the capable guidance of the class faculty advisor, Mr. Clyde Boyer. The responsibility that went with the presidency ol' this year's class rested upon Charles DeBonis, popular athlete, leader and scholar. Filling the vice-president's chair was Eloise Macdonald. The secretarial duties were handled by Louise Brennan and the financial work was done by the class treasurer, Jack Turner.
