Special Activities Mark Opening of First Semester GN SEPTEMBER 12, school opened for the 1938-39 school term. A spirit of gladness and good will prevailed among the students although for 750 some odd of them, it was their last year at Northern. Of the total enrollment, 589 were so- callecl green sophomores, amazed at the largeness of Northern, its well-lighted halls, the conspicuous lack of traffic officers and the never ending hustle and bustle which char- acterizes the home of the Vik- ings. After the confusion of the opening Week died down, school life was disrupted by the Student Union ticket sale and Student Union elections. Faculty chairman for the tic- ket sale Was Ered Staples. With the help of students and clubs, halls and rooms were decor- ated With the sales posters. Students in each second and seventh hour class were chosen to act as student captains and treasurers. They collected the payment of two-fifty or the al- ternate plan of ten Weekly in- stallments at twenty-five cents each. ln later weeks and months, these tickets admitted the stud- ents to school sports, parties, debates, plays and provided discounts for incidental affairs. :PAEAMOUNT in the minds of all from the time school opened until they were held were the Student Union elec- tions. Amid the usual plethora of signs, the petition signing, necessary to place the cam- paigners' names on the ballot, took place. At the assemblies held Sep- tember 28, the candidates and their managers gave speeches advancing reasons for their election. They hoped to influ- ence students' minds for the election which took place the next day. The polls were open from 8:00 to 4:00 on the 29th and the winners were announced the following day at the football game. Student Council Olticers-They represent the students in the school government.
