STUDENT COUNCIL This year the Student Council has been divided into two councils: that of the Junior High and that of the Senior High, which meet together once a month on Tuesday. Mr. James Dunleavy and Mr. Richard Johnson are in charge of the Senior Council, while Mr. John Jennings has organized the Junior Council, composed only of the Junior High Mem- bers This year the Council has been very busy in sponsoring the Curtis Magazine Drive, the Awards Assembly, the E. I. B. guides, providing ushers and refreshment workers at the Variety Show, and giv- ing daily announcements over the public address system. The Council also sponsored a Welcome Dance, took charge of the election of officers in the iunior wing, collected toys at Christmas for or- phanages, established the student store, and took charge of the Rasbach Photos. This year they sent representatives to regional and state conferences, wrote up their own constitution, and joined the National Association of Student Councils. Hats off to a fine organization which has continually worked for the students of Amity. l Christmas Greetings - To Some Lucky Orphanage Via Amity!

Student Council President, Ken Kehrer STUDENT Our Student Council is regarded as the highest student organization in the school. Its obiectives are to assist in providing co-operation and unity among the students and faculty in all extra-curricu- lar activities and to give everyone an opportunity to share in school responsibility. This year, the council has done a tremendous job. It has carried out many proiects in order to meet the needs of the school. Amity should be proud of its Student Council. However, this year could not have been suc- cessful if it had not been for the exhaustive work of the executive board, the initiative of the represent- atives and alternates, the excellent guidance of the faculty advisers, and the enthusiastic support of the whole student body. I wish to take this opportunity to thank every single person who has helped us during the year. Sincerely, Ken COUNCH SENIOR COUNCIL OFFICERS Left to right are: Pat Richter, Recording Secretary: Penny Langeler, Treasurer, KennethLKehrer, President, Andy Bishop, Vice-President: JUNIOR COUNCIL OFFICERS and Marion Hill, Corresponding Secretary. Lucy Langeler, President, and Judy Richter, Recording Secretary. 52

SENIOR CLASS PLAY Another first for the Senior Class was the class play which was held March 29th and 30th. The play Turn Back The Clock is a hilarious story which proves that the teenagers of the 1920's were no different from the teens of today. Judy Wolfe aptly played Evie, the rad- ical daughter of Mr. Uoe Glorialand Mrs. Uudy Wain- manl Palmer, who drives her parents, especially her father, to distraction. Evie's two boy friends, Charlie Hill fDick Clareyl and Johnnie Stone CReid Kaplanl, prove to be a source of hilarity throughout the play. Larry Palmer CNed Buntonl and his sister Sally fMarion Hilll, under a comic cover, tie this typical family of the era together. Such characters as Maybelle Harrison CMary Ellen Harrisonl, Irene lsherwood CBarbara Wiesl, Phyllis McSorley QMary D'Aurial, Hilda the maid CDonna De- Veglial, Barbara Bannister lPat Maxwelll, her brother, Ollie fPat Siskl, and Slim Bascombe KDavid Dedrnanl add to the comic scurry which was so vividly portrayed on the Amity High School Stage.
