MAIN COUNCIL of the Council made plans a few weeks before the opening of school whereby the tickets could go on sale and be in the hands of the students before the first football game of the season, which came during the first week of school. The plans worked out most successfully and over sixteen hundred tickets were sold. Peg Stein ' s inter-school relations committee did an excellent job. Among their many fine accomplishments was an extensive safety drive which was very beneficial to all. Through the Council ' s efforts several different speakers were brought to New Trier to assist the students in their selection of vocations. The charter and contact committee has worked hard this year to work out a plan whereby no club could continue without justifying its existence, and since many clubs were just existing and that was all, this plan has really done much to put them on their feet again. A series of class assemblies were sponsored by the entire Council in order to acquaint the students with the manner in which the Council works. The Council has tried this year to come in closer contact with both the student body and the faculty. This has been accomplished by fine student cooperation through the Council representatives.

The four officers were this year elected for the first time by the popu- lar vote of the students under a new system set up at the end of last year. The officers were: Dewitt Jones, president; Bill Spinney, vice-president; Kay Wenter, secretary; and Beth Bryson, treasurer. The majority of the Council ' s work is done through its various committees. These committees are headed by chairmen who make up the Inner Council. The president se- lects the committee heads at the beginning of the year, and they take up their duties as soon as the Council approves their appointment. This year ' s committee chairmen have done unusually fine work and a large part of the Council ' s success is due to their efforts. These chairmen were: — Beth Bryson, finance committee; Peg Stein, inter-school relations committee; Jack Byrum, charter and contact committee; John Sprenger, social committee; Gerald Taber, handbook committee; Bill Snyder, mess hall committee; Kay Neeves, pub- lications committee; Bill Knepper, building and grounds committee, and John Frankel, as- sembly committee. One of the most important projects undertaken this year was the Activities Ticket. The finance committee did most of the work in launching and promoting the ticket, but the whole-hearted cooperation of the entire Council made it the success that it was. The officers 22
