To record meetings and manage correspondence Nancy Mearig was elected secretary. The hrst duty of the Council was the annual election ot cheerleaders, a hectic experience because of the large and talented group of candidates, This year more emphasis has been placed on the several committees appointed to direct certain school activities under the supervision of the Coun- cil.

The Athletic Committee, in cooperation with the gym teachers, directs intra-school athletics. The Pub- lications Committee has general supervision over the school paper and yearbook. The duty ot the Point Committee is to award letters to students who are outstanding not only in leadership and scholar- ship but also in athletics and other extra-curricular activities. The members of the School Relations Committee have charge of ushering at basketball games and are constantly on call to show guests through the school. The Council went all out to aid in the Victory program. The war stamp drive, which sold nearly two hundred dollars' worth ot stamps weekly, and a clothing drive were under its management.

LINE OFFICERS OF COMPANY A F'. Stznrm, Presirleiztg J. Crnlcoviclz, T1'eas1u'ev'g E. Artman, Vice Presidriztg R. Bovenzi, Secretary. The seniors pass in review. XVhen we, the Class of '43, entered Le Roy I-Iigh School four years ago, we were greenhorns but now as we go out into the world we are a better trained and prepared group of young people. Behind us are four won- derful years which, although fruitful, have been by no means a bed of rosesf, In its freshman year the class was starry-eyed with dreams of a full and dramatic future and straightway its members managed to gain a foot- hold in the exciting world known as high school. Upon becoming sophomores, the class estab- lished itself in no uncertain terms as an infiuential member of the school. Under the leadership of its president, Robert Stoddard, the Christmas party, tea dances, the Sophomore movie and forums in which class members participated were all carried out with characteristic thoroughness. The initiative and foresight of the class was evidenced when it persistently demanded Student Council permission to sell ice cream at basketball games. Sales proved so profitable that a precedent was set which is now followed by other sophomore classes. ' ' i A i QT?-'Ti'ii ' A Record of the Operations of Company A In its third year the class seemed to weaken under the strain of the preceding year for it settled down into the routine of a comparatively quiet year. This lethargy was broken only twice - by the profit making junior Prom and again by the Larkin Speaking Contest. The class also assembled and sold programs at football games as a minor under- taking. Although quiet the year was marked by a revo- lutionary change in a custom which has been prac- ticed for years. Much to the disappointment and disgust of the dwarfed Class of '42, it was obliged to give up study hall as its senior homeroom to the overfiowing junior Class. Thus the Class of l43 rated study hall as its homeroom for two years rather than the customary one year. As if to make up for an abnormally quiet jun- ior year, the class plunged into its senior year with all its vigor and came forth with one of the fullest years ever experienced by a Le Roy High School class. Its first undertaking after the election of Fred Sturm as president was the production of the postponed ,lunior Frolic. Before this had been car- ried through to its successful completion, an ener- getic magazine drive was launched in which returns reached an all time high. Throughout the football season the class made a substantial profit at home games through the hot dog stand which is inherited by each senior class from the preceding one. In the spring the Senior Play, Senior Ball, work on the Q-at-kan, and Commencement activities kept the seniors dashing around to the maximum of their endurance. As the year draws to a close, we, as the gradu- ates-to-be regret that so soon the full and enjoyable days spent in Le Roy High School will be only a delightful memory. However, eclipsing this senti- ment, it is with expectations high, courage strong, and the teachings of our noble Alma Mater forever guiding, that we march forth to meet the challenge of the future. - iii 18 lie- . -r if
