Sophomore Student Council Represen- tatives. I-nw rung' Niinnicht, Seitlin. Nlat- lin. Park, Duchon. Beese, Chernofl. Xer- nml mir: Villar. Cooper. Hale, Lefcoe, Shapiro, Gordon. and Nestor Lounders as voting delegates. Junior and senior high schools were represented at this convention, designed to help student coun- cils solve problems and share good ideas de- veloped within their schools. In March five delegates represented Miami High at the district SC meeting at Tech High. The thirtieth year of Miami High's Student Council was filled with activity. One of the biggest projects was organizing the Student Council alternates, or veeps into the monitor system MHS badly needed. SC also found time to sponsor the annual Faculty-Student Council tea. The social committee, headed by Jim Alverson, planned the event around a Thanks- giving theme. The Council again sponsored a campaign for Better Citizenship, which began this year with C week, in which school leaders and clubs participated with posters and talks over the public address system and in the home rooms. Reva Shapiro, Linda Kaplan. Ray Ross and Herb Frith sparked the drive. Another active committee of the Council was the Safety Council. 'u x X -,q,,h 1.0 Thanks go to the Student Council from the Stingtown clubs for the opportunity to use a club window display case set up for the purpose of publicizing club news. Financial needs of the council were again supplied by the annual project of selling foot- ball programs. One of the uses for the SC funds each year is the publication of hand- books for new Stingarees, designed to help them become familiar with MHS. With savings-minded Stingarees in mind, the Council continued its sale of Savings Stamps and Bonds each Tuesday. Cecile Kirby was the red head in the cage this year. Service keys were presented at the end ol' the first semester to Joan Rowland, Nestor Lounders and Gladys Goodwin. SC oflicers for the first semester were John C. Cooper, presidentg Ray Ross, vice-president: Peggy King, secretaryg Nestor Lounders, treas- urer, Reva Shapiro, chaplain. Second semester the offices were filled by David Willing, Reva Shapiro, Gladys Goodwin, James R. Smith and Peggy King. Adviser for SC is Miss Isabel Becker. Junior Student Council Representatives.
