ouncigi acluance dckoof larofecfa Projects and activities of Cody's Student and Sportsmanship Councils promoted the ideals of better school spirit and sportsmanship. First on the Student Council agenda was a festive Sadie Hawkins Dance with gay decorations created by Council representatives. A long anticipated Student Council Assembly followed next to boost student body support of term elections. Months of deliberation and debating went into the amendment to the constitution of electing representatives for a full year. Originating a club notice bulletin board, freshman handbooks, and a new Cody pennant kept enthusiastic Council mem- bers hard at work. They also served as Cody's booster pin salesmen and foreign student exchange day hosts to climax a year's campaign to promote student participation in school affairs and activities. An active athletic season offered Cody's Sportsmanship Council ample oppor- tunity to promote better sports and sportsmanship. Meeting with Stag Council representatives, a Golden Football Trophy was originated to accent the tradition of the Annual Mackenzie and Cody gridiron classic. The Sportsmanship Council also hosted the Homecoming Dance in honor of our football eleven, the first to win the Golden Football. Basketball programs for Cody spectators rounded out the Counci1's projects for another year. SPRING STUDENT COUNCIL . . . Front Row: S. Jeffrey fcorresponding sec- retaryl, 1.

Promoters of good will, locally and throughout the world were found here at Cody among Human Relations Club members. Contributing to community service, they sponsored the Cody Canned Food Campaign, a project to collect canned goods for needy families. At a program honoring Brotherhood Week, exchange students Bettina Soussoury from Greece, Gesine and Marianne Leitloff from Germany, and Renato Vennettelli from Italy compared American and European customs. Club members heard interesting talks by Kathy Sparks, our A.F.S. representative to New Zealand, Mr. Nadis, our faculty visitor to Israel, and Mr. McCaul, our exchange teacher from Scotland, who told of their personal experiences in these countries. Speech activities sponsored by the Forensic Club were many and varied. Laura Engle won the annual oratorical contest sponsored by the National Con- ference of Christians and Jews on the subject, Let Brotherhood Begin With Me. Eleanor Sakach represented Cody in the city finals of the I Speak for Democracy competition. Forensic orators attained the ability to express themselves with clarity and poise, invaluable to participating members of a democracy. Sixty-seven
