STUDCDT CCDUDCIL... ED COTTINGHAM FRANK PELLICCI MARC.fxRE'l' ELBERSON HELEN AHLGREN President Vice-president Secretary Treasurer The Student Council has just finished the most active and successful year in its history. Under the leadership of an executive committee composed ot' Ed Cottingham, president: Frank Pellicci, vice-president: Margaret Elberson. secretary: and Helen Ahlgren, treasurer: the group has materially aided the school administration in building Amphitheater to its present high status. The Council got under way on October 4 by putting the rules and iegulations concerning the Panther Fight Flag into the by-laws of our Constitution. The organization then proceed- ed to start an organized cheering section called the Panther Pep Squad, joined the National As- sociation of Student Councils, and participated in two radio broadcasts under the general theme of bettering the relations between the home and the school. Perhaps the most outstanding of the Student Council projects this year was our Teen Can- teen, which was originally to be a meeting place for any of the students who cared to come either to study or to utilize the recreational facilities. There was to be a snack bar, a coke machine, a phonograph, and table games, and it was to be open both in the day and in the evenings. The Tucson Boys' Choir gave a berefit program toward the furthering of this aim: and the Canteen Committee, with the assistance of many other clubs, fulfilled many hopes with the procurement of a coke machine and a snack bar. However, due to the innumerable difficulties and limitations, our present canteen was used only as a meeting place for organized groups. During the second semester the Council continued its busy schedule by helping the P. T. A. with their Back to School Night . sending the executive committee and Mr. Nicholas Paynovich to the State Convention of Student cr uncils at Flagstaff, suggesting a plan for the mak- ing of school awards. and conducting a successful drive to improve the cleanliness in the cafeteria. It terminated an eventful year by handling 'he Student Council elections and sponsoring a drive for the purchase of CARE packages for schools in Europe, Student Council, left to right. row 1: Jo McFate, I-'rank Pellicei.
