Senior Student Council The Senior Student Council, now under the capable guidance of Mr. Noyes, is an organization of North's student-representatives, selected every spring by popular election. The Council sponsors many activities during its administration. Among those, the most successful in 1942-1943 were the annual elections, the Round Table Conferences, the drive to augment the sale of stamps and bonds, the record hops in the afternoons instead of dances in the evenings, the News from North column in the Ledger, and the sports rallies. In fact, all sorts of pupil activities originate with the Council. The members are as follows: Grade 12-XYarren XYatson, president: Drusilla life-st, vice-presidentg john Anthony, treasurer: Frank McGowan, jean Mullin, and Shirley Vlfallaceg Grade ll- Theodosia Dusopol, jean Ayres, secretaryg Eileen O'Hearn, Sybil Friedland, Llovd Crowther, Ellis Quimby: Grade 10-Fred Roach, George Doherty, Barbara Rich, Charles Leveroni, Louisa Reeks, and Shirley Tolan. Student Secretarial and Clerical Staff Keeping in mind the objective that commercial education, to be effective, must be practical, the Commercial Department assigns its pupils as clerical assistants to teachers, department heads, and the school OfflC6.' These pupils perform practical stenographic and clerical duties of the follow- ing nature: 1. Taking dictation and transcribing. 2. Making duplicate copies on the Mimeograph and Ditto. 3. Filing cards and preparing daily lists of pupil absentees for the office. Accurate ratings are kept for each pupil, based upon reports of teachers in the department and the teachers for whom pupils do individual work. These records are available for use by the Counseling Organization when pupils are recommended for positions. Traffic Squad The largest and most outstanding service organization at North is the Traffic Squad. Its members are chosen for character and scholarship with service as their aim. Each floor has not only a captain but also a faculty advisor. Thus, with this combination of factors, efhciency is inevitable. Red and black badges show the authority of the proud members who are sentinels within this School.
