STUDENT COUNCIL The second semester Student Council had a full schedule of events. President Chuck Carter did an excellent job as head of the council, with cap-able assistance from Buck Miller-vice president, Ra- mona Copple-secretary and Paul Noble-treasurer. The council was in charge of the printing and sale of a new student directory, which includes names, ad- dresses and telephone numbers of everyone in the ninth to twelfth grades. The council supervised the election of the Sioux City Relays Queen and made other arrangements having to do with her presenta- tion. To get ideas for future projects, a suggestion box was placed in the front hall so that students may write down things they think should be done. Plans were TOP ROW: ll. Wegher. K. Gill. B. Miller.

The semi-annual school party was another Student Council project. Student Council officers attended a conclave held at Le Mars, at which 250 schools were represented. Committees in the student council second semester were the yard committee, which picks up papers and trash after the lunch periods, the building committee, which keeps the walls of the school clean from marks and dirt, and the canteen committee, which cooperates with the recreation department in management of the canteen.

CCMMERCIAL :Q L. J. Schroeder ,w From the four rooms of the commercial department step the future business men and women of our time. It is gratifying to know that East High' turns out some of the best office workers and stenographers in the city. Civil Service tests have sent many of our girls to various parts of the country, besides selecting others for work here at home. More than 75'l of the students pass through the typing rooms at one time or another. Although typ- ing can be a vocation, it is very often needed for personal use and is a great help for those who plan to attend college. Shorthand writers are in great demand, and the wages paid make it well worth the time the girls spend in learning this art. The office machines course offers a varied and interesting semester of learning how to operate the dictaphone, mimeograph. comptometer, and calculator. The electric typewriter-donated by Miss George- has added to the speed. efficiency and enjoyment of many typists. No commercial department is complete without bookkeeping classes. As each semester goes by, more and more students are selecting this interesting and worthwhile subject. Figures, complicated ledgers, and headaches complete the bookkeeping year. FUTURE STENOGRAPHERS practice using comptometers. adding machines. dictaphones and mimcograph. Gladys George Edna Murphy 20
