VICTORY COUNCIL The Victory Counoil was organised for the purpoee of directing our sohool in war activities. It is oomposed of the Student Counoil plus a few more members from each class. The main purpose of the oounoil is to promote the sale of War Bonds and Stamps in our oocn-munity. Its first successful attempt was made in December when our spectacular stamp drive was held. This continued for a week and at that time $1435.00 worth of bonds and stamps had been sold. Sales have been continued one day each week throughout the year. Enoouraged by their first success, the members have planned a spring drive. This, began Maroh 15th and continued until May 12th. Our goal is two jeeps, or $1800. These activities are a part of the School at War program for the purpose of stimulating interest in war activities and helping our country to attain its goal—VICTORY The most important aotivity of the Victory Council this year is the Victory Bond Auction, which is scheduled to take place Saturday evening, April 17th. As this book goes to press, students are hard at work with last minute arrangements—collecting donations, taking care of advertising, and putting up the auction stand. Both students and merchants have been generous with their contributions, and we feel confident that the auction will be successful. Among the many donated artioles to be auctioned are calves, pigs, sheep, chickens, furniture, quilts, and home-canned foods. These articles will be auctioned off for 7?ar Bonds, and we hope to be able to reach our quota of the price eighteen hundred dollars V of two jeeps— ® Members of Victory Council aroj First RowiMr Yens, Ann Burster, Margaret Fenton, Miss Salman, Tinker 01Conner,Bloise Voir Mary Rita Barclay, Ruth Stotler, John Taylor, Mrs. Borror, Mr. Claggett • Second Rwr Kathleen Barclay, John Everetts, Lloyd Raber, Bill Tipler, Gene Steffen, Junior Gauger, John Malcaa, Bob Gordon, Ross Connley, Miss Martin
