Chance. The Athletic Council of the year i947-48 has shown a decided interest in the encouragement of student attendance of sports events. The primary tasks which the council has to perform are such things as selling tickets at home games, meeting the visiting team, meeting the referees, counting all the money taken in and registering it in the school books. The money is all banked and registered by the principal of the high school, Mr. Chance. At the first of the basketball year the Council sponsored a large bonfire rally which included a parade with the High School Band and concluded with a large bonfire with the cheerleaders leading the crowd in many cheers.

This year's Council consists of President, Jimmy Joe Smith, Senior representative, Donald Conover, Junior representative, George Roby, Sophomore representative, Carol Schafer, Freshman representative, Calvin Bolling, Eighth Grade, Bob Ferneau, Seventh Grade, Richard Hixson.
