In establishing the Student Senate in January, l959, Brother Rice took a ma- ior step in seeing that this important end was achieved. For at that time, by holding a preliminary election to choose the future officers of our senate, the students exercised for the first time their right and duty to govern. As a result of these elections, John Meyer was granted by his fellow stu- dents top executive power in this body. To aid the new president, the students also voted Ken McNealy, Lee Wenhart, and Jim Borke into the offices of Vice- President, Secretary, and Treasurer, respectively. These men, along with the class senators, benefited the school and student body through the successful realization of their objec- tives. On the occasion of our second an- nual elections, John Meyer, Ken McNealy Russ Borone, and Jim Rosenhauer were delegated to the four top positions to carry on and develop our young tradi- tion of leadershi .

DAD'S CLUB The Brother Rice Dads' Club was organized on October 17, 1956, with Brother J. J. Sullivan as moderator. Mr. Stanley Wielgosz was chosen the first president. When the rap of the gavel called those early meetings to order, the agenda was dominated by plans for the solemn dedication of the yet unfinished school building on May 30, l957. The phenomenal results of that truly stupendous effort enabled the Dads' Club to donate to our school its parking lot, as well as the outside basketball and tennis facilities. In second year, with Mr. Frank Maren as president, the Club initiated the Annual Dinner Dance. Also that year, the dads sponsored the annual varsity-faculty basketball game, and the faculty vs. fathers volley ball The three trustees of the organization are lleft to rightlz Doctor R. L.
