Special meetings were held with the coaches and representatives of the various sports. lt was decided that one letter would be awarded during high school and emblems and service bars would be added to denote the sports. Five of the members-Carolyn Lamb, Betty Vaccaro, Evelyn Trafton, Melba Harrison and Joanne Page-attended the Maine Association of Student Councils that was held at Edward Little High School in Auburn. The Carnival Ball at which Shirley Morrow and Andre Chabot were crowned queen and king was held under the auspices of the council.

A publicity committee for the council was elected consisting of Ralph Travis, Mellva Har- rison, Raymond Gendron and June Brook. This committee sees that publicity is put into the school and local papers. A Junior Red Cross Drive was led by the council and S. H. S. had one hundred per cent enrollment. The council is planning by another year to have handbooks printed in which a plan of the school will be drawn, lists made of the faculty, subjects, activities and sports. The racks for books outside the cafeteria were a project of the Student Council and was carried out by the shop classes. This leaves much more room at the tables for trays. At Open House, when the parents and friends came to visit the school, the council mem- bers were stationed around the building as guides. The council this year continued its policy of visiting other schools to see how their councils functioned. The Student Council has been very active this year, and it is hoped that it may continue to he through the coming years.
