The strain wasn’t as great, as might have been the case, however, due to the resignation of two of the officials. Archie Voisard, Mayor; and Jack Kenniston, Traffic Manager both relinquished their positions at the start of the second semester. Mary Jane Andrus was elected Mayor and A1 Belsito became Traffic Manager. The officers served the following positions: Archie Voisard, Mayor, first senv ester; Mary Jane Andrus, Mayor, second semester; Jack Kenniston, Traffic Manager, first semester; A1 Belsito, Traffic Manager, second semester; Dave Steinke, Chief Justice; Judy Stem, Public Service Chief; and Jack Burchett, Sanitary Commissioner. The officers have their commissions to help them and through the fine work of both officers, and commissions our school was much improved.

FACULTY STUDENT COUNCIL The Faculty-Student Council was much im- proved this year under the direction of our two Mayors. Archie Voisard was responsible for a new type of council which consisted of two parts. There was the permanent council which consisted of those members elected to the council. The second part was composed of members who made up the Guest Council. This Guest Council was devised to give everyone who was interested a chance to attend F. S. C. meetings. Also during the first semester the school’s constitution was revised. Second semester saw Mary Jane Andrus as Mayor and more changes were made. The Coun- cil adopted the formal parliamentary procedure type of legislature to make a more highly esteemed F.S.C. The council spent much time on consider- ing changes in school policy. Two of them were: class yearbook assessments; juke-box for the gym to replace orchestra for dances. GIRLS’ LEAGUE BOARD The Girls League Board has been very busy this year helping to make our “Alma Mater” a better and happier school to attend. The Board elected Jan Brockway, President; Lora Linington, Vice-President; and Georgina Dunn, Secretary- Treasurer. They were ably assisted by Mrs. Foster who served as advisor. One of this groups most widely known activities was the reviving of a football home coming game and dance. The game chosen was with Belding, the last game of the season. A home-coming queen and court, chosen by the student body, presided over both the game and dance. The dance held in the high school gymnasium was a vivid affair with all students and Alumni welcome to attend. A few other projects completed this year have been two all-school dances, a Christmas mixer, a program for supervision of the Girls Room, several unique pep meetings and the straightening of the books in session room. BOY’S UNION COUNCIL The purpose of the Boy’s Union Council is to promote assemblies and school activities which would be for the general interest of the boys. Membership of the Boy’s Union Council is determined in this manner: Three representatives are choosen from each class by the boys of that class, then, each homeroom who hasn’t one of those representative in it chooses a B.U.C. delegate.
