Jack Phillips Was the only candidate. Beside taking care of the routine activities of the school in general, the council, for the first time in several years, set up a schedule of assemblies. The assemblies along with the school dances were the two ,main considerations of this year's student governing body. With the help of his committee, Chairman Lee Reiff took on the responsibilities of assemblies, and, according to student opinion, the new program was enthusiastically received. . ' School dances, which are fast becom- ing an integral part of school life, were introduced through the council in the year 1942-43. Since that time an average of six dances have been given every year. The Roundhouse, local jive dive, is usual- ly the scene of these festivities. Dorothy Jane Trousdale acted as chairman of this committee. Student council members: Back row: Gordon Byler,4Wesley Harms, Stein Phillips, Marshall Schirer and Joyce Goering.
