Paperback sale enlarges scholarship fund. Beginning in the spring of 1963, when student body officers were elected for 1963-64, President Dennis Moyers and other members of the student council made prepa- rations for this school year. Students and teachers enjoy looking through paperbacks on display for two weeks in November. The state student council work- shop last summer, a county meet- ing in Duncan in September, the state convention in December pro- vided opportunities for comparing problems and projects with those of other schools. At the county meeting Duncan, Clifton, and Morenci councils agreed to form their own unit rather than participate in a dis- trict organization. Projects included collection of food and clothing for the needy at Christmas and a $100 scholar- ship for a senior planning to at- tend an Arizona college. Money raisers were the book sale, a Spanish supper, a bake sale, and a powder puff football game. 28
