STUDENT COUNCIL They Wear The Pants In Our Family lt is a great honor to be chosen by your class- mates to represent them on the Student Council, Our Student Council consists of all the class officers plus a boy and girl chosen from each class to act as class representatives. They got busy at the beginning of the year and elected Owen An- derson, an efficient senior, as their President, Pat Trimble, a junior, as Vice President, Joanne Mar- tin, a junior as Secretary, and Loretta Ludwick, a senior, as Treasurer. On October 20, with the help of their two de- pendable advisors, Mr, Felts and Mr. Paoli, they sponsored the Annual Homecoming - bonfire, movie, parade, and dance. With the help and co- operation of all concerned, it proved to be very successful and provided working capital for the year. During football season, the dads of the play- ers were honored at our Annual Dads' Night. Then the mothers of the players were honored in the same way during basketball season. Once a month throughout the year, Student Council presented il movie or an assembly program to the students. They also planned very good Thanksgiving and Christmas programs. On November 4, eight members, Owen An- derson Pat Trimble, Joanne Martin, Loretta Lud- wick, Jodie Davidson, Helen Morfey, Chick Barnes, an-fl Margaret Cook journeyed to Urbana, Illinois, to attend the annual District Student Council Con- vention. lt was held at the Urbana High School.
