STUDE T'S COUNCIL Row 1: 1. Judd, P. Steele, J. Vfittenberg. Row 2: K. Garrity, M. Elwood, G. Dalton, R. Knott, B. Navarette. Row 3: Miss Burgstaller, A. Witsil, P. Hagstrom, J. Parker, R. Quinn, Mr. The governing body of our school, the School Coun- cil, which is composed of representatives from both the faculty and the student body, has played an influential and active role in the enforcement and establishment of school rules and student privileges. Through its com- mittees and commissions the council has provided a varied number of social events and extra-curricular activ- ities. One of the Council's main endeavors was to devise a code of aims and objectives under which it planned to function. This code proposed to interest the student body in all school activities, to provide a link between the faculty and the students and to give students an opportu- nity to partake in the responsibility of school events. Beginning work early in September, the Council started its program by holding a weekend workshop at a camp in Colebrook, Connecticut. The object of the work- shop was to give the council members an opportunity to work as a unit, to set up a long range program for the year, and to accomplish a maximum of work in a minimum of time. l 3 Christie.

The Council has striven to provide the students with the activities they desired. Through the Assembly Com- mission, the school has had a number of excellent assem- blies and also some spirit boosting pep rallies. The Social and Canteen Committees have provided for the sponsor- ship of numerous dances, canteens, and the highlight of the social year, a record hop. Many different and new clubs, to comply with the interests of all students, were chartered by the club commission. As a service to the school, the Council has provided the students with schedules of all sport events. The Eagles Nest campaign has furnished them with the opportunity to contribute to a number of charities. Through the co-operation of the administration and the support of the student body the Council has achieved its goals.

HI-LIGHTER 5, Warde's first magazine is by you and for you. We on the staff spent an eventful first year at the job carrying out this ideal for everyone in the school. The mag came out only twice during this school year in order that we might get all our problems ironed out and production running smoothly. In years to come it will burst forth four times a year or about once every term. Actually our main problems were trying to get all our contributors to hand in their copy and trying to find new ways to print and produce. The mug shots that surround this prosey bit are pictures of our hard- working staff. They always say the first year's the hardest. just you wait 'til next year!

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE S. MacQuarrie, J. Judd, P. Steel, Mr. Christie, D. Prescott, Miss Burgstaller. The Student Exchange Commis- sion was established last year so that a foreign student could be brought to our school. In order to nuance this undertaking, the Student Exchange Commission has conducted several money-raising projects. These in- cluded selling Warde buttons, news- papers, and refreshments at sports and social events, sponsoring events such as the International Dance and the Student-Faculty basketball gameg checking coats at school functions, and operating a snack bar after school. Through these efforts An- drew Warde will have the pleasure of welcoming its second Foreign Exchange Student next year and of sending a fellow classmate abroad. The members of the Executive Committee of the student Council co-ordinate the movements in the Council and plan agendas for meet- ings. The Board is composed of the four Council officers and a represent- ative from the Sophomore Class. Through the ei-forts of the Executive Committee, the Andrew Warde School Council is run smoothly and effectively. EXCH GE CGMMISSION R. Knott, K. Ifober, L. Strauss, 1. Norkus, Miss McConnell, C.
