The Scholarship Committee headed by George Peer has tried to impress upon the pupils that students should get the maximum out of their school training, and that scholarship along with good health and safety will win the war. Helen Gigi and her committee has been hard at work on general Welfare problems, one of which is the lunior Red Cross Work. The regular school dances held the second Friday of each month have met with success due to the untiring effort of Shirley Wash and her committee. We hope that these dances will always be a source of pleasure to Cleveland- ites. The Student Council is proud of the fact that the students at Cleveland have responded so gloriously to the sale of Defense Stamps. We hope to put our every effort in Keeping Cleveland First in Defense. Page Thirteen COURTESY LGYALTY

Its activity in the field of Scholarship is culminated by the choos- ing of two advisories for the Scholarship and Citizenship banners. The advisory group having the largest number of E's receives the Scholarship Banner, the advisory having the lowest number of F's or no failures at all, the Citizenship Banner. The Council, acting through its Dance Committee, is responsible for the student school dances. Through suggestions of various members, the corn- mittee gave a Harvest Dance in which the students dressed as farmers for the day. The Council also helped in the sale of operetta tickets, football tickets, and basket ball tickets. The members of the Council served as ushers for the School Operetta and Open House, doing an admirable job at both events. Probably the biggest task of the Council is the Iunior Red Cross work. Our unit at Cleveland is an active one, and the staff is kept busy giving out supplies and receiving the completed projects. Page Twelve I-IONESTY INDUSTRY

Sponsor.......,. ,Lorraine Luepker Fred Boyd Mr. MacKay The Student Officers play an integral part in Cleveland's system of Student participation in school government. Working in concert with the other two student government bodies, the Council and the Court, the Officers serve their school in many ways. Their continual objective is the betterment of Cleve- land, and the ninety students in the group unselfishly devote a great deal of time and effort to attain that goal. The activities of the Officers range from assisting at the annual Alumni meeting, to serving at the school entrances during the lunch periods. They help to make school dances successful, and give their services at the Operettas and Follies presented by the school. Their most important task, however, is to promote proper conduct among the students, by pointing out mistakes, or actions that may lead to difficulty. To do this effectually it has been neces- sary to receive the cooperation of the student body, and this co-operation has been given to a gratifying extent. It goes without saying that students who serve their school so unselfishly are both loyal and trustworthy. The Officers are proud of the fact- that they enioy such a reputation, and that they are able to keep many of their fellow students out of difficulty and still obtain better than average grades.
