TEE While watching the study hall boards for announcements , you prob- ably wondered why the Girl Reserves were not mentloned The answer lies in the fact that the club has had a change in name, with the result tha.t we are now known as Y Teens Though we may forget the name,we certainly sha.n't forget the good times we've had throughout the year. Our officers for the season were: Beverly Zaininger, president, Rosemary Martin, vice president, Norma Hea.ther,secretary, and Ellen Otterpohl, trea surer Also, the club was fortunate in having Miss Brown as advisor On the first and third Monday evenings of each month, we sophomore, jun- ior, and senior girls met to hear speakers or to join in a more informal program. Our first big event was the G.R. Hallowe 'en Dance, followed by in- itiation a.nd the acceptance of our new name. Then, after a very successful Orphanage Party, we settled dovm for the Christmas holidays. During 19lL7, we all had a good time celebrating our Birthday Supperg and I'm sure no one will forget the Father-Daughter Banquet, which could not have been successful without our Mother Council. In order to repay them for their help, we ended our year with Mothers' Night, followed by the Farewell Picnic. So, regardless of the change in name, the Y-Teens function with the same purpose in mind- To find and give the best.

S T U D E N T C O U N C I L The officers of the l9h6-l9h7 Student Councilwere John Shultz,president5 Polly Givler, vice-president, Jean Sargent, secretary, and Charles Russell, treasurer. The other members were Jim Lyon,Ann Good, Jerry Pickell, George Bentz, Holbrook Rickert, Bob Parcells, Ken Sovereign, Jim Moser, Nancy Nelson,Helene Hayes, Mary Ann Brock, Barbara Van Adestine, and our advisor, Mr. Hill. In September we got off to a slow start because of many newcomers, but were in full swing by the end of the first quarter. Our first activity was the sponsoring of Homecoming in November. The day was a great success with many floats and participants. The Social Gom ittee of the Council put on a number of all-school parties. The first, in October, was an old-fashioned barn dance which was enjoyed by all. The Christmas Party and nRu pus Niten completed the calendar of all-school parties. For the first time in the history of N.H.S.,a method of leaving assembly was put into action. It was com only known as Wsenior seniority.N Plans for a student-activity ticket were in the making, with the possibility of the tickets' being used for out-of-town athletic contests. The Magazine Drive sponsored by the Council went over its quota of 82000. This year the profit was divided among the different classes in proportion to the number of sales made by each class. A revision of the constitution providing for a new method of electing the president of the Student Council was made. Following this amendment, the president will be elected in the spring of his junior year by the student body and will represent the whole school in- stead of an individual homeroom. With these improvements and activities, we sincerely hope we have served the entire student body and have helped pave the way for a better Student Council for 19117-19748.
