Those in charge of Student Council--Shirley Jones, Alice Allison Krygier, June Lien, President; Rita Widmer, Peggy Todd. Caught informally, the members of Student Council seem to be getting a big kick out of something someone has or has not done. The result will be a student body meeting and the problem will be settled. The Student Council is made up of the President and Class Representative of the Senior Class; the President and Class Representative of the Junior Class; and the President of the Student Government Association. This organization acts in the interest of, and for the benefit of, the Student Body. Their purpose is to hear opinions and requests from either faculty or students, to consider them and come to conclusions most beneficial and suitable to all concerned. Problems arising are settled in the interest of all, and the rules and regulations of the school are enforced. Such a democratic system has proven satisfactory in the past and in the present.

The Sports Minded The main interest of the newly formed Athletic Club at the beginning of the school year, was the establishing of a Game Room in the basement. With the help of all the members, and the advice of Mr. Patronsky, it really was a big success. A well liked winter sport was ice-skating, which can be done near the school if the weather is favorable. The ping-pong tournaments were very popular, and members of the Club as well as other interested students participated. During the year various films were shown on Archery, Deep-sea Fishing, Winter Sports and Hunting. These were sponsored by the Club and very much enjoyed by everyone, including nonmembers. Another activity was the inviting of outside speakers from various sport-clubs to give talks on subjects such as Archery or Fishing. In the Spring, our tennis court got a lot of use when the tennis tournaments were held. The winner was awarded a cup. This was another popular sport for which it was worthwhile practicing. The ambition of the Club as a whole, was to participate in as many sports as possible, and to get more people interested in becoming members of this ambitious and fun-loving group.
