. . . attentive girls gizL'cu Since 1919 the Girls' Club has been organ- ized, having as its members all girls in high school. Its purposes are to create a spirit of friendliness and cooperation, and to be —officers of service to the entire school. President Audrey Kramis leads the club in its many useful activities. Other officers are Eunice Hysen, vice president, and Katherine Lan- sing, secretary-treasurer. Miss Neva Cope- land is chief faculty overseer. The club is guided by the cabinet which is made up of six committees directing different works of the organization. The social committee has as its sponsor Miss Agnes Brown, and for its head, Barbara Haines. This committee is responsible for all social functions, planning programs, and decorating for the occasions. The social service committee, under the sponsorship of Miss Katherine Craighead, and leadership of Katy Lou Shallenberger, supplies the girls that act as the school nurse's assistants. The Kid Party is under their charge, the proceeds of which this year went to the Red Cross. They also supervise the distribution of Big Sisters for freshmen girls. . . . finance

ouncL As the Montana Legislature serves our state, so does the Student Council serve Mis- soula High. This student governing body is made up of an elected representative from each home room in school. Meetings are held every Monday night after school, and the volume of the work to be done usually keeps the council until after five o'clock. Under the capable direction of President Gene Kramer, Vice-President Don Weston, and Secretary Katherine Lansing, Missoula High has made a start in the direction of capable student government. The council discusses and approves or rejects important changes and matters which affect school life before submitting them to the student body and faculty members. The installation of the monitor system, the managing of the War Chest drive, and the selling of Ath- letic Tournament tickets are some of the major problems, besides other minor matters which always depend on the Student Coun- cil for settlement. Outshining all these sue cesses, however, is the installation of stu- dent prices in our Missoula theaters. Work ing with the Parent-Teachers' Association the Student Council has brought the prices down to 40 cents at the Wilma and 35 cents at the other theaters. The Student Council also rewrote the old Constitution which had been in effect since 1929, and sponsored Old Clothes Day. The sucess of the noise parade and bonfire before the Thanksgiving game were also due to the diligent efforts of the Student Council Head Tom Wickes.
