RED CROSS The Junior Red Cross has a fine branch at Central; its mem-l)crs have done many things of importance this past year. During Christmas time they decorated a tree with one hundred pairs of mittens; the mittens were later sent to needy children throughout the world. Central received praise from the National Red Cross for its mitten tree project. This, year they once again sent gift boxes to boys and girls in foreign lands. The Red Cross at Central took an active interest in the Student Foreign Exchange Program. They sponsored an assembly which featured students from Norway, Germany, France, Turkey, and New Zealand. These students told the Central High students about life in their own countries. The Red Cross, with the help of Miss Legate, the advisor; Cleo Eek. President; Gordon Wilson, Vice President; Dianne Nelson. Secretary; Sharon Fowler, Treasurer, conducted a very successful Red Cross drive, collecting over two hundred dollars. Central’s Red Cross can be justly proud. 27

This organization is responsible for all matters dealing with student government. The members of the Student Council under the direction of Miss Helen Kicher. the advisor; Jim Schimschock, President; Bill Bose, Vice President; Nick,Grammas, Treasurer; Karen Skomars. Secretary, have sponsored many worthwhile activities this past year. The activity which was most noted was the confer- ence with Washburn High School. The purpose of this conference was to create better relations. It was thought to l e a success, and the idea will probably be continued next year. Of course, the Student Council is not all work and no play. It also sponsored a variety of dances. The most popular was the Christmas dance, which was called “Santa's Shindig. The Student Council is truly an important and essential organization. STUDENT COUNCIL 26

LIBRARY MONITORS Keeping watch at the doors of the library is the job of the library monitors. The monitors are students who have given up a study hall in order to serve in the library. Their chief duty is accepting anti stamping the passes of the students entering the library at dif- ferent periods of the day. They also return the passes to the study halls, keep the library orderly, and check attendance at the beginning of the period. These monitors perforin a great service to the school and deserve everyone’s thanks. Row 1: La Row«, Marquordt, Clifton. Palmer. Row 2: Kling. Fogle, Osborne, Ossanna.
