TROJAN Council of Themis UR system of government is founded upon democratic- ideals; so is the stu-Ic dent council of our public schools. Its three-fold purpose is: First, to promote jail student activities; second, with cooperation of the faculty and administration of the school system to. gain and maintain the highest standards of high school life; and third, to create a school spirit by having the students voice their sentiment. There Inis been a student council in Beloit High School since 1924. The first six years of the student council they were chosen from the classes and organizations. For the past two years the members have been chosen from the spelling classes and each organization in the school. When there is any business to be brought before the students, the members of the council bring a report to each spelling class where they tell the business and it is discussed pro and con. At the next council meeting they take up the students attitude of the matter and proceed in their favor. During the past two years the student council has had a regular meeting once every two weeks. The students have learned the importance of having a student council and realize the benefits gained through it. Principal E. M. Chestnut is the student council sponsor. The student council is a non-partisan body and tries to help any organization when it could accomplish its goal with a little aid. Early in the season the Debate Squad and Hi-Y were planning to give the play, “Poodles”. The council joined them and furnished what they didn’t have including tin girls of the cast. Early in the school year it was found that. Beloit had several modern conveniences, but it would profit much by the addition of a radio. The student council considered the ways and means of bq TREDA TUMDDELL. DEL FORREST IFINN earning enough money to purchase one, and soon radios were being brought up on trial. The radio was formally presented to the school by the President, .Miss Opal Wells. Every Friday morning from 10:20 to 10:50 music students enjoyed the Walter Damrosch music appreciation hour. The student council sponsored the preparation and sale of the student activity ticket. The'student council had a lunch counter at the Horse Fair in the fall. After having to race the Plymouth up Mill Street to get to the next class and using all the loose dirt near to keep the gas stove from burning and exploding, the council came out at the better end. The student council assisted by the debate squad and Hi-Y presented the play, “Poodles,” November 9th. The members of the cast chosen from the council were Opal Wells, Frances Cole, Dale Spaulding and Thelma Slate. The play was coached by Mr. Carmichael and Mr. lines. Other of their activities have been a campaign to free the halls and near the building of waste paper, having a candy counter at the games, or leasing it to another organization. The council had a committee to meet athletes and visitors from other communities. The council financed the purchase of the scholastic awards and placing the members’ names of the National Honor Society on the plaque. They also defrayed the expenses of the twenty pupils who entered the scholarship contest at Concordia, April 29. Members this year were: Opal Wells, president; Claude Baker, vice-president; Kathryn Ingram, secretary and treasurer; Frances Cole, Billy Birch, Howard DeShazo, Gerald Bassford, Betty Tweed, Ronald Walsh, Lawnev Giddings, Paul Hannah, Catherine Crawford. Charles Jordan, Rosemary Prewett. Dale Spaulding, Robert Mercer, Thelma Slate, Ruth Anna Tindle, and Leo Nelson. May 1933 Page Twenty-seven
