They also planned several programs designed to aid and enlighten KCHS’ers. In the fall the council sponsored College Night when representatives from several colleges met with interested students and their parents, briefing them on the costs and facilities of their school. The group also arranged for Dr. Robert Manley from Hiram Scott College to present a convocation on Nebraska and Western history. Throughout the year the council held several money making drives, selling pens and aerosol bottles of mouthwash. In the spring they supervised student elections and helped with a fundraising drive for the Kimball Red Cross. VICE-PRESIDENT Herb Rutz distributes pens at a regular meeting.
