Officers: President-David Rhoades Treasurer-Nancy Yaw Sec retary-Lauretta Walton Publicity Manager-Ethel Radach Assistant Publicity Manager-Harold Donnelly Promoting loyalty to the school and good fellowship among students and unifying the student body is the aim and objective of the Student Governing Association. The Student Council composed of SGA officers, class presidents, and selected teachers, met each six weeks to discuss the problems and ideas brought before the student body. Under the SGA sponsorship a girls' bowling team was organized, bowling shirts and cheerleader uniforms were purchased, and a pop corn machine was bought and turned over to the chorus to help finance their trip to Juneau. The lucky ones who went to Wrangell and Douglas for the basketball games and to Juneau for the Music Festival have the SGA to thank. Not to be for- gotten were the six movies and the successful class skits which were en- joyed by all. With the help of Mr. Cole, teachers, and the able officers, our school grew in 'spirit and accomplishments throughout this school year.

Our Journalism Class, assisted by interested outside students, success- fully published the Pushka, a review of school life and the latest scoops, every three weeks. About 180 copies of this mimeographed paper were issued to students, advertisers, teachers, Alaskans and several schools in ten states. The day before Valentine's Day the class published a Friday the Thirteenth issue without the help of the advisor, Miss Rayburn. Margie Klingbeil was editor the first semester with Bob Cameron as her assistant. The latter moved into the editor's shoes the second semester and Norman Burke took over as assistant. Business Manager Lillian Boen took time out from her many duties to circulate among the business people collecting ads. Marta Williams and Ann Chapman could be seen busily typing, wrapping, and mailing out the exchanges. The many games were written up by Sports Editor Larry Cal- vin. Donna Kuehn had charge of art the first semester and Shirley Richter the second semester. Left to right, standing: Sharon Handy, Harold Donnelly, Bill Boettcher, Lawrence Perkins, Marta Williams.

During the year we helped the local polio campaign by conducting a tag day and by collecting' donations from the schools. The three birthday parties that we gave for the children in the Orthopedic Hospital were looked forward to by everyone. A monkey exhibited at the first party got a lot of attention from employees as well as patients. To add to the enjoyment of school life we held a Christmas Assembly, a Val- entine Assembly, and took part in Tolo Week. New members voted in on the basis of leadership, scholarship, character and service were Wally Volz, Bill Boettcher, Lillian Boen, Bonnie Cam- eron, John Abell and Sydney Hert.
