STUDENT COUNCIL For the first time in many years, a Student Council was organized in De- cember under Mr. Morton's direction and advice. The purpose of the Coun- cil was to try to bring our school under the supervision of some sort of student government to promote a better pupil-teacher relationship as well as to dis- cuss problems and ideas and wishes of the students themselves that might bring improvement to our school by collective bargaining methods. During their first year the Council framed a suitable constitution, bought two ferns for the assembly room, and discussed and put into effect some rules and regulations. They visited neighboring schools and then reported on these visits at assemblies. Improvements in Library, school grounds and honor roll were made, and assembly programs were sponsored. We sincerely hope the Council may be continued, as it has proven an in- strument of great good so far, TRACK The Tri-County schools decided on track as the spring sport this year. Mr. Morton took over the job of coaching and started the boys off with an inter- class meet early in April. We had a little experience last spring, but this year a number of meets have been scheduled. Following are the winners and rec- ord-holders in the Interclass: 100 yd. dash-G. l.undg record, R.

THE ANNUAL STAFF Early in March the Seniors decided to put out an annual and elected the following members as a staff to put over such a venture to be known as The Oak Leaves of l937 : Editor-in-chief ..,...... .,,.,,,,...i............................,. M arjorie Erdmann Associate Editor ........ ..,,....,................................... G ordon Kottke Business Managers ......... ..,...... I uanita LaMue, Lillian Wachendorf Advertising Manager ......, ..........,.....,.......,................... R obert Lawson Faculty Adviser ..............................................,.......,......... W. M. Morton Although the annual was started late in the year, these people have worked hard to make this the best edition of The Oak Leaves ever published. Es- pecial credit is due Marjorie Erdmann for her excellent leadership and organi- zation of the work. A warm subscription campaign was closed on March 19 the results of which, coupled with Robert Lawson's success as an advertising salesman, more than guaranteed the financial success of our book. TRI-COUNTY SOFTBALL LEAGUE Although baseball had been the fall sport for man years, the Tri-County League decided to play softball last fall. Oakfield, Lomira, North Fond du Lac, Brandon and Rosendale set up a schedule in which, due to the shortness of the season, each team played each other team only once. Coach Heimerl hurriedly gathered up a group of boys to make a team. Con- tinuing in the stride set up by our championship baseball team of the previous spring, these boys kept the Victory Bell warm with the following wins: At Rosendale, 5 to 2: at Brandon, 16 to 13 at Lomira, 7 to 3. Then came the championship game between North Fond du Lac and Oak- field High Schools at Collien's Field, Oakfield. Both teams were confident of victory with three victories and no defeats tucked under their belts on that cold October day. The Railroaders, however, won the trophy 13 to 2. Nev- ertheless, we are justly proud of the fact that it took North Fond du Lac to smear an otherwise perfect record. Our team won second place, and we won't forget that team or their coach.

He was our only tall man, and his rebound work, especially on de- fense, will be missed more than we can realize. Orville Erdmann: Orville, after playing regular guard in his Freshman year, got off to a poor start, but hit his stride after Christmas and made the second all-tournament team. He should be one of the best players in the school's history before he graduates. Page Sixteen
