STUDENT COUNCIL President-Ed Brown Vice-President-Bill Shenkle A Secretary-Treasurer-Jane Shaffer Sponsors- . Miss Fye, Miss Kessler, Mr. Uber The purpose of the Student Council is to offer experience in intelligent leader- ship, to promote a better understanding between student body and faculty, and to help students fab choose the right, fbi act accordingly, fel stick to it, and to further develop the feeling of responsibility. Last fall the Student Council, for the first time, opened an employment agency. Any student willing to work, filled out a blank stating the type of work he wished to do. Due to the infrequency of calls for work, the agency was discontinued. During the week of November 3, the Council and Red Cross Club combined their efforts in making the Red Cross Drive a success. A grand total of 3523.25 was collected, with room 12 taking the honors by contributing 33.27. James Thompson was manager and Barbara Smith was assistant manager in this drive. - After Thanksgiving vacation the Stu- dent Council started a penny-a-week drive. Small boxes, which were decorated by Tommy Love and Jane Shaffer, were placed in each home room. Each student was asked to bring a penny a week until Christmas vacation began. A total of 9,324.13 was used by Miss Bessie Steele and Mr. Robert Boozer to buy clothing for the less fortunate students of DuBois Junior High. Room 14, a seventh grade home room, led the drive with 33.45. . During Christmas week, a large spruce tree was put up in the front hall and deco- rated by Council members. On January 26, the Inspection Com- mittee began to function. Two persons were assigned to each floor to inspect rooms on Monday and Thursday nights of each week. Dusty and untidy rooms were reported to home room representa- tives. This year a. new system was used in the distribution of surplus commodities. At the first of the year the home eco- nomics classes tooki charge. Later the Council took over. EQ-Brown, Council president, placed a list 'pf-the ninth grade students and the date when they were to prepare lunch in eachininth grade home room. Perhaps the most successful project of the Student Council for the year 1941-42 was the selling of defense stamps. The stamps were sold on Tuesday and Friday afternoons at the desk in the front hall. The denomination of these stamps was ten cents. During the year a total of 4,000 stamps was sold. A grand total of 25400 was loaned to the United States govern- ment to help Win this war. As in previous years, the Council spon- sored the sale of tickets for the all-school play. Each family in junior high was given a ticket to sell. Student Council members were also given tickets to sell in the business district. Room 12 was highest with 45 tickets sold, and room 14 was second with 42 tickets sold. Each stu- dent in both winning rooms was treated to an ice cream bar. The proceeds, S98.85, will be used to buy equipment for the school. On May 19, junior high was again the scene of the sixth grade party. A tour was made of the school and the students were introduced to their future teachers. An ice cream bar was given to each student. REMINISCING Probably the first outstanding event on our school program was the appear- ance of David Rubinoif, famous violinist. He certainly did make a hit with us. In his concert, Rubinoif played a variety of classical and swing songs. That favorite tune of several years ago, Oh! Johnny, became even more popular when he play- ed it as a classic, in swingtime, and in the Rubinoff style. Then you remember how every night after school and on Saturdays the play cast met and practiced, or did it? Finally, 2 -
