Se eg The Student Cooperative Associa- tion Council is the governing body of Blackstone High School. With Mr. Parr as its sponsor, it is composed of re- presentatives from all clubs and home- rooms. The Council endeavors to work out all problems between the students andthe faculty. This year it sponsored the Community Chest Drive at the be- ginning of the year instead of having the many different drives throughout the year. The Council always strives to provide good student government, and in the year 1952-53 it feels that it has been very successful.
