Two members are selected to represent each class, and officers are elected from the members of the junior and senior classes. This year the Student Council has sponsored programs given by the Brooks Trio, an acrobatic team; Edward Reno, a magician; and James Dyer, an Armenian. An all-school party was given in March by the Student Council. Class basketball was organized by them, also, each class having a girls’ team and a boys’ team. Before the sectional tournament, the Student Council held a “pep” program in which several townspeople appeared and gave short talks. Miss Marjorie Strong is their adviser.
