Student (ZottuctC Two representatives were chosen from each class at the beginning of the year to represent the student body. The following officers were elected for the student council: President—Barbara Harlin Vice-President—James McClard Secretary-Treasurer—Donna Schuetz Reporter—Dave Townley Advisor—Mr. Harden The student council chose some of the assembly programs for the coming year. Time came to vote on the proposed addition to the high school and then is when the student council really began to work. Jim McClard was appointed chairman of a committee to work and make posters to be put in all the downtown buillings. The purpose was to get all the voters to vote “yes” for the addition on April 16, 1955. Meanwhile, Mr. Harden, our advisor, had pamphlets made to give the people the facts on the pro- posed addition. After they were printed the members divided into groups, according to the classes, and covered the town completely. Although it was a lot of walking, we enjoyed getting out of school. Our work proved suc- cessful. Sitting: Mr. Harden, Barbara Harlin, Jim McClard, Donna Schuetz, Dave Townley.
