It had a successful and cooperative year with a number of notable accomplishments. The council and officers were chosen by the popular vote of the students. The council was then divided into committees each having a chairman and faculty advisor, so as to create more accomplishments. This method proved very successful. Among the duties of the Student Council were: the regulating of a safety control system throughout the school, the upkeep and improvement of school property, and encouraging anything from which the students might benefit.

SAFETY PATROL OFFICERS Captain James Teague Lieutenant Olin Elliott P ' ' aniiliai’ to the eyes of all the students was the sight of some of the members of the Safety Patrol at their posts in the halls between classes and assisting the students in getting on and off the buses.
