All senior high students were invited for games and melon, and a large crowd had a grand time. A lovely bronze plaque in memory of the late Principal Ralph E. Gowans was placed in the auditorium. For the first time in its history, O. H. S. had a football queen. The queen and a dance in her honor after the Emporia game were sponsored by the council. Bright spots in council activities have been the exchange of assemblies with other schools of the N. E. K. League. This year we journeyed to Atchison, Argentine, and Shawnee-Mission. Leavenworth and Lawrence presented assem- blies here. A beautiful new speaker's rostrum was presented to the school by the Student Council with the help of the Hi-Y. There were approximately 20 members in the Student Council. Officers were elected in the spring by the student body, and other mem- bers were chosen in the fall as class or organiza- tion representatives. Officers this year were: president, Marilyn Browning, vice-president, Johnny Harper, sec- retary, Delores England, treasurer, Jim Potts. The sponsor was Leroy Hood.
