STUDENT COUNCIL Mai;ricf. Thomson.........................President Dedkikka Anderson.........................Secretary THE Student Council, an organization that is representative of the whole North High student body, has completed its second successful year. Following the constitution that was drawn up last year, the members that constitute the body are the presidents of all the clubs and representatives from each of the six classes at North. The Student Council elected Maurice Thomson to serve as successor to Gordon Mackenzie. Dedrikka Anderson, as managing editor of the Polaris Weekly, served as secretary of the organization. The North High Student Council was represented at the All-City Council meetings. Don Burris and Dedrikka Anderson were present at the meeting held in December at Central, and Maurice Thomson and Dedrikka Anderson represented .North at the meeting held at Edison in February. Perhaps the Council's biggest accomplishment was the success of the “Greater North” campaign. The campaign was concentrated upon during the month of March, but it was continued during the whole school year. The Council sponsored several auditorium periods to concentrate on a “Greater North Spirit.’’ An executive committee for the campaign was elected. The seven that were elected were: Maurice Thomson, chairman, Hazel Halloran. Ethyl Copeland, William Mersky, Guita Bearman, Don Burris, and Ted Knight. A kick-off banquet, held on March 9, was attended by nearly two hundred students. Some of the principal speakers for the campaign were Lieutenant Governor W. I. Nolan, Rev. Lemon, and several prominent students of North. The Student Council has completed a successful year. Its make-up was enthusiastic and worked for the betterment of the school. The officers were unusual in their ability to serve. Top Rot Van Norman, Umon, MlNN, Lank. O'Neil, Oldham. I.indrloom. Cotki-and. Halloran Mi.Ull' Note Mark, Knuiaos. Mkncblkocii, Bearman, Ianoatrom.
