senate Officers: June Chambers, secretary; James Fuller, president; Charles (Chuck) Thomas, vice-president. One of the high lights of the Senate ' s ac¬ tivities this year was attending the District Student Council meeting at East Peoria Oct. 25. The senators representing Rock Island high school were June Chambers, Ronald Driggs, James Fuller, Barbara Goff, Daniel Munn, and Bonita Peterson. This year ' s Senate officers were James Ful¬ ler, president; Charles Thomas, vice-president; and June Chambers, secretary-treasurer. To build up good will between the students and the faculty, to improve conditions around the school, and to solve any problems con¬ cerning the student body are the aims of the Senate. Some of the new ideas introduced by the Senate this year were the tomahawk that is to travel between the Rock Island and Moline football teams and the stickers given for safe driving. The Senate also suggested the idea for the school ' s dance band and worked to get student prices at theaters. Choosing the varsity and sophomore cheer¬ leaders, sponsoring fathers ' night, supervising the record dances held after games in the gym, running all the drives during the year, buying Christmas baskets, and arranging the bonfire and street dance during Homecoming were a few of the Senate ' s many duties. A senator is chosen in each senate room and must maintain a C average. Meetings are held in the Activity room every Thursday. Principal Charles O. Austin, Jr., Dean Flor¬ ence J. Liebbe, and Counselor Herbert L. Wag¬ ner ore the Senate ' s advisers.

office and clinic assistants Row 1: Jacqueline Weinert, Nancy Strayer, Marilyn Mangels, Bethel Taylor, Mary Coolidge, Jean Williams, Betty Brimberg, Marilyn Miller. Row 2: Jane Beeson, Joyce Hains, Virginia Anderson, Nancy Young, Calla Scherrer, Frances Teros, Betty Makedon. Girls from the junior and senior classes who hove free periods ore chosen by Dean Florence J. Liebbe to assist in the office during class periods. There are four or more girls in the office every period of the day. They work under the direction of Principal Charles O Austin, Jr., Miss Liebbe, Counselor Herbert L. Wagner, and Registrar Helen M. Downing. The assistants deliver notes and detention slips, help take care of absence sheets, collect attendance slips, answer the telephone, and regulate the lights in the halls. The girls who help Miss Liebbe and Mr. Wagner may have various other duties, such as filing excuses and making out detention slips. The assistants do not have to be stenogra¬ phers or typists, but they must know some¬ thing about office routine. During the day many students who are too ill to stay in their classes visit the clinic. Here they may rest for the remainder of o period or until they feel better. The clinic aids those who need simple remedies; such students are admitted upon the presentation of an excuse slip. This year about seven junior and senior girls, with free periods, were chosen to work in the clinic under the supervision of Mrs. Matilda Bacon, school nurse. Each assistant is in charge of the clinic for one period, must record the names of the students who come in, and see that they get up in time to get dressed and make up their cots. The assistants also make sure the beds are made with fresh pillowcases and sheets. The clinic assistants are chosen for their re¬ liability and capability, and during the past years the organization has shown its worthi¬ ness. Row 1: Jo Ann Kieinau Margot Morris, Mrs. Matilda Bocon, Marilyn Richardson, Lois Bradbury. Row 2: Shirley Herbert, Beverly Strayer. 15
