Student Council Thirteen years ago a student and faculty committee met to bring about the origin of a new body of students, called the student council. The purpose of this club was to promote closer rela- tions between the students and the school au- thorities, and to promote the general welfare of the school. For the first five years this organiza- tion was sponsored by both Miss A. L. Stevens and Mr. E. C. Almquist, but due to the increase of clubs and needed supervisors, Mr. Alrnquist left the student council and assumed his new duties as sponsor of the Peptomist club. Since then, Miss Stevens has been the sole supervisor. To start the ball rolling in 1936 the entire student body elected Guy Holt as their presiding officer. At the first student council meeting the remaining officers were chosen. The results were as follows: Bob Cheatum, vice-president, and Iunia McCandle-ss, secretary. Since Iunia was elected for only one semester, it was necessary to hold another election at the beginning of the second semester. Nancy Marie Snyder, being elected, held the position for the remainder of the year. Two main duties that the council takes care of are, first, the planning of several assembly programs and, second, the cleaning and arrange- ment of the trophy cases. The president of the sophomore class, Bill Holt, was named as chair- man of the trophy case committee. Bette Embick was appointed as head of the assembly program committee. Besides these two duties, the student council has charge of the all-school elections of the president of student council and the cheer- leaders. The regulations which the students are required to fulfill before earning any award ex- cept athletic awards are determined by this or- ganization. The Gold and Blue handbooks are annually edited by the student council, especially for the benefit of those new students coming to this high school. The collection for the Big Brother's fund is handled through this organiza- tion. Besides these things the student council gave a demonstration of their regular meetings, which were held twice a month, at the Student Government roundtable at the Kansas State Teachers' meeting held in Hutchinson. This organization is a small group of students but very important. The membership is a very select one. Until this year every club except the Booster club was represented. By an amendment to the constitution it was agreed to add the presi- dent of the Booster club to the student council thus giving every club a chance for representation. Twenty-two
