Um? I I I Student Council forms the nucleus of all other student organizations. The group consists of representatives from the home room, class presi- dents, the student body president, and a sponsor. This year Selma Berge was president, Iim Mc- Elvain vice-president, and Gloria Allan secretary- treasurer, Miss Francis served as sponsor. Among other things the Council was responsi- ble for appointing cloak room guards and hall monitors to direct traffic. They supervised numer- ous activities varying from passing the waste basket at the end of each study hall to selling and deliver- ing over 315,000 worth of War Bonds and Stamps at the bond show. The Council also has charge of the assembly programs and bulletin boards. Under the leadership of Mr. Starke, the Council spon- sored a Go-to-Church campaign among the stu- dents to encourage church attendance. JOHN LARSEN, PageEleuen KA,.. M-.- I

1945 ' qddfd and ' ' Gone is our freshman inferiority complex, gone is our sophomore sophistication. We have cast aside our junior over-confidence to enter into our senior year, an older and far wiser group fwe hopej. And as the time draws near for us to don our quaint, monklike outfits and gOOSCStCp up the aisle to the strains of the processional graduation march, we feel as a canary must feel when the door of his cage is opened. He is eager to get out, yet a little frightened at what he may find in that realm of so-called freedom. Sometimes we have felt that MHS was a cage, hampering our fun, hut now We look upon it as a protecting structure, and often in the time to come, We will realize the happiest days of our life were spent there-the theatre of many happy events and incidents. Time marches on. Ushers were teachers of 1939, as Kasik, Benoit, Whiteside, Bickenhack, Town- send, Iim Myers, Turner, Lamal and of course Mr. Newsom. Page TI4f'l'Il'C
