The Student Council this year has been outstanding in activities to promote a better school. Under the active leadership of Marilyn Hutson, with full cooperation of members and sponsors, the council has initiated many worth-while projects . A program for noon recreation was worked out and put into operation, assembly programs for the year were planned, and Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Homecoming programs were supervised. The innovation of staging student elections for council members, together with active campaigning by nominees, was started. Other projects promoted were the coat check, pay telephone, display of flags, paper cup dispensers, and senior day . The local council belonged to district, state and national organizations, and local representatives attended district and state meetings. To notify students of council proceedings, a bulletin board and scrap book were introduced, reports were made in student assembly, and articles were written for the Searchlight and Unit-Journal .

Activities during the school year were composed of playing for home football gamesg a trip to Chenoa to play before the student body, participation at I. S. N. U.
