Three members represent our school in the County Council. They are Margaret Kuzeinchak, john Willialms, and Mary jo Lunn. Margaret Kuzemchak represented our school and the County Council this summer when she went to Leader- ship Training Camp to learn more about junior Red C ross work. The group has made it an annual project to hold .i Queen of Hearts dance each February with its dec- orative theme being Valentines Day. There is a court chosen, with members from each home room and a king and queen from the senior class. This is usually one of the best-attended occasions of the school year. The profits from this dance are used to pack gift something for the school, from which the council thinks the whole school might benefit. Bake sales are also on the list of the activities of this group. They have had several of these which have turned out very successfully. The members were also solicitors when they sent out a plea for blood clonors this year, for the blood which is urgently needed both in this country and the war-ravaged areas in other lands. Our council was also the sponsor of movies which were shown this year illustrating how the Red Cross helps in times of disaster, both at home and abroad. The club also sponsored a bulletin board contest with enrollment as its theme. This was done so as to increase the interest in enrollment and let people know what was going on in the j.R.C. The bulletin boards were beautifullv decorated and a prize was given for the one which was considered best. The group has had a very full schedule and is pro- gressing more rapidly each year.

Walter Friday, cap' tain of the Safety Patrol, is missing from the picture Sluafmlfa Khaled .fiaea The Safety Patrol is an organization made up of ten boys from the seventh, eighth, and ninth grades. These boys guard the lives of the grade school children. They lead the small children safely home twice each day. Through rain, sleet, snow or sunny weather, the Safety Patrol is always on duty to insure the safety of the smaller members of our school system. Wtilter Friday is Captain, with Kenneth Whitney and Fred Hannak as Lieutenants. Other members are Williriiii Gressley, Tom Ganoe, Tow Drahnak, David Lewis, Leo Maruschak and Edward Slanoc. The members of the Safety Patrol have been per- forming this important school service for the past sev- eral years. Although they have made hundreds of trips home with the children, there has never been a serious accident to harm any of the younger children of the school. These boys give up class time to keep the members of hrst, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth grades free from unnecessary danger or injury from passing motorists. They direct automobile and pedestrian traffic at intersections where these young students have to pass on their way to their homes. The community owes a debt of gratitude to the Safety Patrol.
