Believing that Lincoln's present school songs were out of date, the council sponsored a song contest, in which an original song written by Alice Sizer, and a new set of verses to Onward Lincoln were judged best and named as Lincoln's official songs. Two of the group, Harry Johnson and Leonard McGuire, were among those rep- resenting Lincoln at the High School Leaders and Journalists' Conference at the Uni- versity of Washington in November. On their return they suggested that an institution such as Lincoln should have a creed. Accordingly, a creed was drawn up and approved by the advisers. In February, when Leonard McGuire, vice president, was graduated from school, a special election was held, which resulted in Jeanne Van Antwerp being chosen vice president for the spring semester.
