Girls ' Athletic Association-First Term FIRST ROW: Parti Keel, (Secretary), Jan Miller (President), Joannie Brew (Vice-President). SECOND ROW: Saralyn Kopple, Nancy Scribner, Liz Olson, Barbie Wells, Susie Williams, Ondre Huston, Judy Drake, Sherry Fitzmorris, Debby Vainder, Lyn Miller. G.A.A. is a group organized to create spirit and friendliness in the school. As an organization we try to do our best to improve and help the school in any way we can. As individuals we assist teachers in small projects such as typing and filing. As a group we undertake large projects such as a book- and-bake fair, and a always successful ban- quet. G.A.A. is the girls of the high school. The success or failure of the organization belongs solely to them. We have a common goal, we strive to contribute, to assist, to improve and above all to support our school. This year we hope that we have reached our goal, and, if possible, surpassed it.

Purple and White FIRST ROW: John Hickey, Steve Hawxhurst, Mark Nelson, Nick Babson, John Darrow. SECOND ROW: Jeff Alsdorf, Bill Hinchliff, Betsy Cohler, Lea Durham, Mitchell Dalton, Tom Moore (Editor). THIRD ROW: Debby Vainder, Nancy Scribner, Betty Anne Clarke, Bim Stanton, Rennie Knopf, Judy Drake, Anne Young, Holly Potter, John Coffin. The purpose of the Purple and White for the year 1963 and 1964 has been to stimulate a deeper interest in the student body over significant issues that are world-wide as well as school-wide. The staff was at least tripled in size in order to provide a surplus of mate- rial from which the more provocative and in- teresting articles could be selected. The newspaper, or more accurately news magazine, was criticized by many groups (faculty, underclassmen of lower intelligence, Mr. Lacey, and angry young alumnae) for its lack of emphasis on issues pertinent to their own select interests. The Purple and White is instead a newspaper which through its variety tries to satisfy all groups rather than just one. Not everyone chuckles over the corny jokes of the subtle Campus Quotes column, but on the other hand, the Berlin crisis isn ' t the most in- teresting subject to read about either. The staff gains the greatest satisfaction from the magazine when it appears neatly stacked in the lunchroom for distribution. Though each issue does not last materially forever as the MIRROR proposes, the Purple and White as an institution remains as long as students wish to write. Tom Moore - 21

Student Council-First Term FIRST ROW: Ellen Howe, John Darrow (President), Debby Strong (Vice-President), Candy Dern (Secretary). SECOND ROW: Bert Stern, Liza Howe, Bill Guthmann, Charlie Gardner, Bill Davis, Linda Allison, Tom Dietzgen, John Hickey, Anne Pugh. ABSENT: Anne Young (Treasurer). In past years the emphasis in Council has been on the discussion of new powers. We be- lieve that the way councilwas organized it could not handle these powers. Therefore, this year we have worked to change Council into a stronger, more efficient organization. We now have a set of by-laws for the running of meetings, and a series of sub committees to run the different functions. This means that the council is now a supervising body with time to work on more projects. We believe that this system will enable it to carry more responsibilities and handle them correctly.
