Merry Christmas everyone! The Student Council officers: Steve Harts, vice president, Gloria Miser, secretary-treasurer, and Roger Walters, president, are getting into the spirit of Christmas by posing in front of the decorated Christmas tree. Here is our student government, Butlerites. Here our voices and opinions are heard through our representatives elected to serve Butler High and its students. The Student Council's purpose is to present the student's viewpoints to the faculty and to help formulate new school policies. Members try to develop the interest of the students and the teachers, raise student standards, and pro- mote closer understanding between the stu- dent body and teachers. Each year the council selects the school mon- itors and the three main convocations. The Student Council must approve any new club before it can be organized in the school. Each class elects a boy and girl to represent them in the council. The organization this year was under the leadership of Roger Walters president, Mr. Reed, the council's advisor. Here is every student's opportunity to make his voice known in the government of his school, and to prepare him for his future place as a citizen. utstanding Service Leaders STUDENT COUNCIL, TOP ROW: Carolyn Hankey, Cary Laub, Ronald Houser, Marilyn Jinnings, Ricky Carol Smith, Steve Harts, Dick Johnson, Carl Surface, Wilson, Gloria Miser, Susie Smith.

Our lives seem to be a mad rush from one activity to another. It's hurry, hurry, from basketball game to re- cord hop, from play practice to Hi Fi Band rehearsal, or from one club meeting to another. Butlerites have a variety of organizations to meet each students need or interest-honor clubs, Christian fellow- ship organizations,clubs for our future hornemakers and farmers, training opportunities for aspiring journalists, booster and safety organizations, training for our camera bugs and projeetionists, and the popular HiFi Band. Our world of activities is fast and furious, but it's our world and we love every minute of it, 25

The National Honor Society is a nation wide or- ganization honoring high school students. The students belonging to this club rate high in their scholastic achievements along with leadership, character, and service. Candidates eligible to this club must have had a B average in solid Subjects the preceding semester. One C in a solid will eliminate present members. Actual members are the juniors and seniors who fulfilled these require- ments. The sophomores are probationary mem- bers, and graduates of BHS are graduate mem- bers. NHS members come in assorted kinds and sizes, but they all have an enthusiasm for scholarship, a desire to render service, to promote worthy leadership, and to encourage the development of character in students of Butler High School. The National Honor Society gives a special serv- ice to the school yearly. It is their project to keep the trophies and trophy cases Cleaned.
