Such officers were Elsie Knutsen, president; John Schmidlapp, vice president; Barbara Etter, secretary; and Jane Ann Hartley, treasurer. The purposes of the Student Council are to promote and foster school spirit, to cooperate with the faculty and initiate measures for the welfare of the student body, and to sponsor and promote student activities. The activities for the 1963-64 Council have been many and varied, such as selling bookcovers, clean- ing trophy cases, printing and distributing football rosters, decorating goal posts at all home football games, playing records during the school noon hour, holding cheerleader try- outs, and maintaining dispenser machines. High lights of the year are sponsoring the Homecoming festivities, Dress Up Day, Student Teacher Day and the All-Club Formal. It is the council's responsibility to decorate the school for the Christmas season, as well as the showing of a Christmas movie to the student body.
