STUDENT COUNCIL BACK ROW, Left to Right: Fred Miller, Ken Pchajek, Bob Miller, Danny Buksak, FRONT ROW: Sheila DeVisser, Angela Askew, Antoinette Reichert, Jeanne Bagamery. Our activities during the school week have given our students something to look forward to. Our student council period is held from 2:30-3:30 regularly on Friday after¬ noons. We have had a variety of things including a variety show, debates, panel discus¬ sions and talks from interesting guests. Our variety shows have been amusing and the students take it in their stride as it is good fun. Accordianists such as Douglas Stemkoski and Richard Chornick add the musical part to our show and these “Hep Cats’’ really swing it. Recently we have been having interclassroom debates. Firstly, four students from each room compete with their classmates and the two winners of these go on to compete with the other classrooms. We have found this to be very educational as it urges the students to do more research. The interesting guests previously mentioned include such people as a lady lawyer and a man representing a local radio station. It was quite a pleasant surprise when it was learned that the students of the colle¬ giate were goingto receive dancing lessons during physical education period. The teachers were to be Miss Thom and Mr. Elefenboum. The first dancing lessons rolled around and the students were really surprised because few had expected it would be as much fun as it really was. The first lessons included rhythm marching,the bunny hop and the schottische. Although the boys were the most skeptical about these lessons it seemed to the girls that they were the ones who enjoyed it the most. All in all our student council has done a good job in spite of all the little bits of trouble they have run up against, and I am sure that the students of this school are very grateful to their representatives for the pleasure they have been able to bring them.

Our studc-nt council has been very active this year as compared to the previous years. The dances we have had were very successful. The many activities inside the school have also, we feel sure, done much to lessen the monotony of school hours. Our first dance was a combined basketball game and dance and it was the first one to ever bo held in the Hast St. Paul Collegiate. Our huge gym provided us with a good place for both the game and the dance. The game was played by the boys of the ' Collegiate All Star team against the graduates of the East St. Paul School. It was a thrilling and oxciting game but it was a tragic loss for the graduates who were in poor condition as compared to the All Stars. The dance which followed was enjoyed by everyone. The attendance was large and it was then we really became thankful we had held it in our gym. For the music that night we played records as the funds of the student council were not too great, but this appeared to make absolutely no difference to the success of the ' evening. Refreshments were sold and at the end of the evening we were sure that everyone had gone home feeling that this had been a terrific dance. The next dance the ' student council had was held on March 11. This dance was put on for the purpose of rais¬ ing money for the graduation which was coming upon us very rapidly. The dance was to have started at 8:00 but it never really got under way until 9:00. Once it did get started, lowever, it was a lot of fun. A “no smoking sign was put up forbidding anyone to smoke inside the gym and this rule was enforced by Mr. Askew, a special constable who has been chaperoning the dances. It made it much more pleasant inside the gym without having the air getting stuffy. There were a variety of dances including the Mexican Hat dance, polkas, waltzes, jives, etc., and prizes were given for spot dances. Although the attendance was not as great as we had antici¬ pated it was just as successful as the last dance we had.
