STUDENT Cf UNCIL Twice a month the Student Council room served its intended use this past year by being the inner sanctum for student body business affairs. Norman Quistini sat at the head of the table as prexy. Other student body officers on the council were Archie Roberson, vice-presidentg Frances Ott, secretary: Alice Vilen, treasurerg and George Gurrola, assembly manager. Several important steps in school policy were taken by the Student Council this year. The G.A.A. and Copa de Oro organizations were admitted as mem- bers and given equal representation rights with other members. An improved system of athletic awards for boys' sports was worked out and adopted, and Student Council members sponsored a program intended to keep the campus neat and clutter-free. Another important step taken was the decision to allow the sponsoring organizations to retain all the profits from school dances instead of turning half over to the student body as was done in previous years. Ex-officio members of the Student Council were the following: Marily Ryd- quist, Hi-Boosterg Kathryn Iohnson, El Escalong Angelo Vieira, F.F.A.p Doris Pieini, G.A.A.g Leon Butler, Block E Society: Gail Speh, Copa de Oro: Dorothy Reichert, C.S.l:'.p Betty Oliver, Girls' League, Bill Sparkman, seniorsg Darlene Palmer, juniors: Tony Pinheiro, sophomores, and Gerald Prater, freshmen. The Student Council members feel that they have taken many steps forward in the making of Escalon High into a better school. We attribute -much of this progress to the able guidance of Mr. Rivers and Mr. Whitlock, and to the splendid cooperation on the part of the students of our school.
