THE STUDENT COUNCHJ MARY LoU NASH The immediate commencement of the yearly Council duties was delayed for a short time last September by the voluntary resignation of the president-elect, Robert Spilman, because of his responsibilities as a captain in the cadets. However, Sally Steele who had been elected to serve as vice-president and who was unusually capable of officiating as president, was automatically promoted to that position. This necessitated the election of a new vice-president, which took place at an early meeting of the General Council. At the beginning of the school year various committees were organized to help in carrying on the work of the council, namely, the Constitution Committee, the Lunch-room Committee, the Dancing Committee, the Legislative Committee, the Hospitality Committee, the Rules and Procedure Committee, the Poster Committee, and the Coaching Committee. Also a temporary committee was organized on March 24, following the request made by Mr. A. V. Smith, faculty adviser for tennis at Central, that the Council reconsider the method of awarding uC's for tennis. Re- ports from the chairmen of these committees were made from time to time at the Council meetings so that the members would be familiar with the work being done by each other. The Christmas project is one of the most outstanding activities conducted by the Council during the past school year. Twenty-two families were generously sup- plied with food, clothing, toys, and monetary contributions by the students of Cen- tral. A sixth, seventh, or eighth semester section was made responsible for a family with the assistance of three or four other sections. Letters were received from sev- eral families who, having been helped by the Council the last year, made pleas for help again. The fine spirit shown and the cooperation offered by Council members and a great many other students, made it possible to answer these pleas. 34-9.69 which was left from the Christmas fund was spent in supplying a particularly needy family with food and milk until the end of February. During this past year the Council has tried out a new experiment. Study halls have been conducted in which any freshman having difliculty with a subject could be coached by upper semester students. These study halls were held during 3rd, 6th, and 7th periods every day and have proved to be very successful. Dancing in the Armory during lunch periods was held for several weeks but was dropped because it failed to prove profitable. Several assemblies were presented by the Council. In planning these the as- sembly committee endeavored to discover uhiddenn talent among the students and present it to the student body in an entertaining manner. Until the end of February the Lunch-room Committee was responsible for keep- ing the lunchroom orderly during the lunch periods and a chart was kept in the Council room for recording the tables reserved. However, at the first of March these duties were turned over to the boys, and girls' CN Clubs, to be carried on by them with the cooperation of the council members. This is an example of what the execu- tive officers would like to have done in the future for they believe it to be wise for the Council to start projects, continue with them until they are well under way, and then turn them over to the school to be carried on by the students. Thus meetings were held toward the end of school, one for the sixth semester girls, and the second for the boys of the same classes. A discussion about the duties, was held, of the various council positions that would be filled by some of them next year. Plans for the coming school term are already beginning to take form, and it is the hope of all the present council members that even more will be accomplished during the school year of 1936-1937.
