The Bernie Chapter of the National Beta Club had an active year in 1964-65. Under the leadership of President Mike Reinbott, one senior and eighteen sophomores were inducted into the club in a Rainbow Cere- mony. This formal induction was at an assembly of the entire high school student body. The club raised the scholarship which is awarded on Achievement Day to $200. They operated the Concession Stand during the first three home basketball games, the Coat and Hat Check at all home games, and the ice-cream concession daily in the cafeteria. Three dogwood trees, two pink and one white, were bought by the Betas and planted in front of the high school building. As a Christmas project a basket of fruit, nuts, and candy, along with small personal gifts, were taken to aged people in a nursing home in Bloomfield. The Betas' year climaxed at the annual State Convention in St. Louis.

ELEANOR BARNEY President St udent Cdouncil an d d3eta The Student Council, as the name implies, works for the entire student body. Each summer the president-elect is sent to the Missouri Association of Student Councils Workshop in Columbia, Missouri. There he gets ideas that he can apply to his own school. Activities of the Student Council included sending representatives to Jefferson City for the Fifth Annual Missouri Safety Conference; sending representatives to a Freedom Forum in Hayti, Missouri. The Forum was held in order to indicate the dangers of Communism in the United States. The Student Council also sponsored four Sock Hops, operated the concession stand at three home games, bought three dogwood trees for the campus, sponsored the Valentine Dance and election of the Valentine Queen, and sponsored Dress-up Day, Twerp Week, and Color Day. The upper left picture shows Eleanor Barney as she presided at assemblies. The lower picture shows Student Council members as they changed the sign in front of the high school.
