STUDENT COUNCIL President ..... Frank Langille Vice President .... Betty Casey Secretary .... Evelyn Sylvester Treasurer ...... Terry Coffin Many of our school activities are sponsored by the Student Council and some projects are managed entirely by this group. This year, one of the special projects has been the establishment of a stage fund with the receipts from dances held after basketball games on Friday night. To date,a substantial sum has been earned. The store, managed by the Council has been well patronized through the year, the average weekly intake averaging well over 55100. Each worker in the store is responsible for money received during his working period. The Council also sponsors all athletics in school including Winter Sports and the Winter Carnival. In addition, the Council acts as agent for the student body in matters pertaining to school policies and the gen- eral welfare of the school. Frank Langille '53 20
