BOYS' COUNCIL: Seated, left to right-Gordon Harris, Michael Twining, Arthur Biscoe, Adviser, Russell Griswold, Chairman, Edward Haight. Second row-Robert Young, Robert Smead, Fraser Millar, Christopher Iles, Walter Dent, Karl Wiemer, John P. MacDonald, Frank Rizzolo, Chairman, Paul Barrett. Boys' Council HOUGH our year had its rough spots, the dorm situation straightened out, it was ul- timately a year that we, the people who helped to make it possible, will never forget, lt was a valuable experience in the field of administra- tion and reconciliation between faculty and students. The Dean of Boys, Art Biscoe, advised the Council on all decisions, and his suggestions proved beneficial. All in all, it was a profitable year in which the Council did much for the boys. The year was highlighted by the Christmas party, at which a movie was shown. The regular selling of food on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday nights proved profitable. We also obtained a milk ma- chine to provide a healthy beverage. All night lights were occasionally enioyed by all the boys and helped to relax the tension. Responsibility was accepted by the Council, thus fruitful toiling climaxed a well-spent year. GIRLS' COUNCIL: First row, left to right-Delia Wheel- wright, Gwendolyn Mackel, Carolyn Hogg, Nancy Wickner, Eileen Grace, Janice Holmes, Sarah Newcomb, Patricia Ives, Kate Summey. Second row-Patricia Walker, Chairman: Joyce Biscoe, Adviser, Karen Jackson, Chairman. Girls' Council U OW much do three doughnuts, four ec- lairs, seven apples, five tangerines, and six cartons of milk cost? ln addition to acting as responsible representatives, the members of Girls' Council must also be mathematical gen- iuses on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday nights when the Council sells food. The Council has furnished the sink plugs at Craig Cottage and soap dispensers in the New Dorm. Perhaps the most noteworthy achieve- ment was the installation of a milk machine in the basement of the New Dorm. The traditional girls' Christmas Party followed the Pageant dress rehearsal. The breaking of the Mexican piiata, caroling, and gifts for all en- riched the Christmas season. Every Monday night the chosen few met to discuss problems relating to the dorms and other phases of Oakwood life. Under the indis- pensable guidance of Joyce Biscoe, we have accomplished many obiectives and have passed on to other students our sense of responsibility for Oakwood's government.
