Harlan, See., Van Zanten, Pres. Montgomery, Bus. Mgr. SGllilllllIDllE5lINIlCili lll51DllDClt In retrospect we find the Student Body has done fairly well this year. XVC again held 't I'rcshman R K . ' eception which was a hilarious Halloween party in the Music Hall decorated as a barn. This type ol' reception very successfully replaces the old rough-house initiation of former years. 'l'he candy store under the direction ol' Miss Adolphson has l tone a profitable business and has contributed much to the linancing of Student Body activities. 'l'he proceeds of the A Operetta were gratifying. Orchids to those who have worked to take part in these activities and' to those who sup orted them. . K . . p Much credit is also clue our Business Manager, Velma Montgomery, who has so ably done her job. Iunior and Senior plays and the Most of the success we have had this year is due to the faculty members who gave so generously ol' their time both in their direction and suggestions and in their actual work. Even though the projects ol' the year have been successful, a change in the type of student government we now have may afford better ' ' ' ' ' ' ' opportunity lor students to show their abilities. New ew methods have been found necessary. Similar changes may be necessary in the field of I l courses ol study, new curricula and n . . sur ent government. This problem will warrant serious consideration lrom the students in the near future. Left to right: Malsbary, Pielop, Sherrill, Harlan, P., Van Zanten, Montgomery, Harlan, V., Covey. 14
