One group ready to start off the school year of 1955-56 was the Student Coun- cil. Two representatives from the 7th through the 12th grades were elected in the spring before, and the officers were elected, also. A mixer dance was one of the first fall projects of the Council and plans were made to have several throughout the year in conjunction with the yearbook staff. The council, too, was in charge of the Homecoming activities when the Aurora Blackhawks played the Biwabik Braves on Oct. 19. The parade on the 18th was one of the best and the dance on the 19th was a hugh success. On Nov. 3 and 4, the four officers of the Council, along with Mr. Haroldson and Mrs. Leiviska, attended the Minnesota Association of Student Council's con- vention in Hibbing. This convention is to present to Student Councils, from all over the state, mutual problems in the schools where the Student Council might be able to help. At the conventions there were discussion groupsondifferent problems which every member could participate in and offer his opinion. By attending the convention the Student Council received many valuable and useful ideas on Student Government. The Student Council also helped the yearbook staff put on a school Karnival this year. The Student Council is rapidly becoming an important organization of the school. 34
