The Students Council (Gavin Mann, 9G) The Students’ Council was organized during the fall term. Its member¬ ship included a permanent executive and the presidents of all Junior High School classes. The executive for the 1949-50 term was: President . Cliff Wylie, 9A Vice-President . Loyce Robinson, 8A Secretary . Gavin Mann, 9G Grade 7 Representative. Helen Greig, 7C The principal work of the Council this year has been the organization and supervision of social activities for the students. Dances, shags and parties have been handled enthusiastically and successfully for all grades, by the Council. The graduation dance for Grade Nine was their concluding function. The Council has also assisted in several other activities during the year, such as the Junior Red Cross organization. It has acted as a sounding-board for student opinion and has helped to promote classroom discussion on certain problems which have arisen. ♦♦ Congratulations ! ! The Crimson.
