THE STUDENT CGUNCIL The students and teachers at Seminary High School have long felt the need for some form of student government, but it was not until this year that their hopes materialized. A Student Council was organized for the purpose of giving the students a chance to assist in the governing of their school. They receive valuable experience when they are brought in contact with the problems con- fronting their school. The members of the Council are to be elected each semester by their rc- spective classes. There are three representatives from the Senior class, two from the junior class, two from the Sophomore class, and one from the Freshman class. The ollicers of the Student Council are: president. John Goodridge: vice president, George VValkerg secretary, Helen McCord. The other members are Usborne Leonard, Tony Telago, James Bennett. Jerry Ashley, and Franklin Powers.

They A defeated every major team in the county with the exception of Lowell- L, 1 ville, but they ended the regular season with an average of about fifty per cent. ln the county tournament they upset Springfield and Canfield but lost to Greenford in an overtime game. They were defeated by Canfield for consolation honors. The boys fought hard. especially against teams supposedly stronger than they, and they never gave up. The team loses four members: Dick Volosin, Bob Johnston, Bud Goodridge, and Louis Mather: however, the prospects for a championship team next year are very bright. The boys wish to let lllr. Heed know that they appreciate all that he has done for them.
