The Entertainment Committee The Entertainment Committee unanimously agreed that the close community atmosphere of luncheons across the street was far superior to that in the Boys' School. We also found basketball to be a more enjoyable sport than some of us had previously realized. Though suspected of having lost a little money, the Committee ended up finan- cially stable and achieved its goal of having people say that the square dance was as much fun as the record dances, although once a year is enough. The comment of the year was made by an anony- mous member of the Girls' School at a vitally impor- tant luncheon meeting, I have nothing more to say. Much thanks is given to Mike, the janitor, for his assistance, and to Mr. Deake for the use of his phonograph and speakers. t K ' , ' Q - T ' 2 ff ' an ' 1 g ' ' if t i e i fi , b N . , ,- - H ,Af Q t Q, C, The Octet.

The Student Council deserves a good deal of credit for the smoothness with which the school year has been carried out. However, without the cooperation received from the school as a whole, such a successful year would have been impossible. Certainly all the members of Wigg Hall are to be congratulated on their high degree of school spirit and conscientious work which they displayed in both scholastic and athletic activities. The duties of the Student Council this year entailed much more than the primary purpose of bridging the student-faculty gap. Called upon to act as a host to the trustees, usher at various social affairs, and to take charge of study halls, on the whole, the Council was kept very active throughout the year. There were very few reforms made during the year, but the Council did feel that several changes were necessary. The policy toward talking in the library was altered, due to the large amount of noise and disturbance in the main reading room in past years. Complete abstinence from talking was maintained at all times. This made the library a much easier and more enjoyable place in which to study. Besides attending the regular Friday night green- slip meeting, one member of the Council was present at the Warren Hall yellowslip meeting. This resulted in a closer bond between the two halls, something which had been missing in the last few years. Attendance pleasef X..
