With the purchase of the motion picture projector, the Audio-Visual club was organized this year by Mr. Elwyn to promote all audio-visual work in Sault High School and to interest students in it as a hobby or vocation. The 17 boys have been taught to operate the motion picture equipment, set up the sound system, take care of the machine, splice film, and operate the auditorium drapes and switchboard. Projecting films is a highly specialized work, particu- larly to have the film and sound track run together. The boys have performed a valuable service to the school dur- ing the past year, said Mr. Elwyn, the originator and adviser of the club. Required to take both practical and written tests, the boys received operators' cards after they proved their abili- ty. Anyone may join the club if he shows skill in operating the equipment, dependability in taking care of it, and if two thirds of the members vote for him. Next year another class will be started to teach new recruits. Mr. Elwyn hopes to buy a Bell-I-Iowe motion picture camera soon and to teach the boys how to run it. Then a complete moving picture record of the school from regis- tration to graduation may be kept. At their meetings every Monday, work is assigned for the week. discussions are held on film magazines, and the technique of taking moving pictures is studied. Started for noon hour recreation, the noon movies were previewed, advertised, and chosen by the club. The five committees of the club are: Page fifteen Program-plans a program for each meeting. Executive-plans with the adviser the year's program. Projection and sound-cares for the equipment and sched- ules its use. Membership-finds and investigates new members for the club. Show-plans shows, carries them out, and raises money. President-Bill Hungerford Vice President-J im Boult Secretary-John Widenhoefer Treasurer-Dick Murphy. This is what some of the boys in the Audio-Visual club think of their work. DICK MURPHY What I have learned in the Audio- Visual club has helped me in running our motion picture projector at home. BILL HUNGERFORD I have gotten a lot of good ex- perience in this interesting work regardless of whether I ever use it again. JOHN WIDENHOEFFER I think that much has been done this year in audio-visual work, but many improve- ments should be made. ALFRED HANNA I have found the motion picture very interesting but a trifle complicated. PAUL STRICKLAND Not only have I learned to operate the equipment so that I could assist anywhere, but also I have learned from watching the pictures. .IIM BOULT 'iIf the school purchases a moving picture camera, the knowledge acquired could be used in other branches of future life.

Legislators Under the advisership of Miss Ruth Haddock, the Stu- dent Council has again completed a year of service, proving its worth as one of Sault High's most valuable organiza- tions. Started in l9Z7 for the purpose of giving students a part in school government and of developing in them qualities of initiative and responsibility, the Council has. since then, played a major role in school life. The organization began the year with an assembly at which officers were installed: President, Ennis Steffensg vice president, John Tremontg secretary, Shirley Atkins: assistant secretary, Elizabeth Bales: treasurer, Jean Barclay, sergeant-at-arms, Patrick Raffaele. One of the many regulation duties of the Council is the granting of projects, charters, and constitutions, some of which are ushering at assemblies, taken care of by room 10: cleaning up of school grounds, room 7: assisting teach- ers in the correction of papers and in dittoing. room 123 carrying announcements, room 31 Lost and Found, room 2. Before the Upper Peninsula district tournament at Ish- peming. the Student Council put on one of the best pep assemblies of the year, a send-off that gave the Blue Devils added incentive for defeating an old rival, the lshpeming Hematites. Another service of the Council was the provision of much-needed check room coat racks and hangers to be used at all parties given in the gym. A concerted drive against stealing and cheating in school was part of this group's work this year, a phase of which was taking custody of the master locker key and the ap- pointing of Council members to check lockers, morning, noon, and after school. ln an effort to further friendlier relations between Am- erican and Canadian students, the Student Council gave a party for the Canadian governing group. Members also sponsored two all-school activity ticket parties, one at Halloween time. the other. a hillbilly dance on April 28. Page sixteen Guardians of Safety For the second successive year the Safety Patrol went on duty the first of school last fall. The twenty-eight patrolmen and officers who comprised the patrol main- tained their posts throughout all kinds of weather in carrying out the aim of the patrol. to develop a safety consciousness in crossing Streets which will enable students to realize dangerous siutations and to act toward them accordingly. The organization covered thirteen posts dur- ing five daily patrol periods, each period being supervised by a lieutenant. With the arrival of heavy snows and cold weather the middle of December, the group suspended active operation. However, as soon as the weather per- mitted in the latter part of March, they again went on active duty and continued until the closing of school in June. The judicial branch of the patrol, the traffic court. also resumed its functions in the fall. The student judge, Richard Forbes, presided with a student jury of six, which returned the verdicts. The defendants and the patrol were represented b ytheir respective counsels. All students found guilty of violating the safety code were sentenced to the traffic school, where they had to study safety material pertaining to their particular type of violation. ln addition to their regular functions, the patrol assisted during the school election and various other school activi- ties. Mr. Honkanen, the safety adviser, supervised the patrol. ln the safety assembly of May 5, the patrol was hon- ored with the award of a safety banner, achieved by send- ing monthly reports of the patrols activities to its spon- sers, the Michigan A.A.A. At this time also, various members of patrol were presented service bars for their outstanding work done during the year. In conjunction with the awarding of the banner the school was presented a bronze safety plaque. This plaque was emblematic of the commendatory manner in which various phases of safety work were conducted in the high school throughout the past year, such as safety bulletins and films, the safe driving course, and the safety court as well as the activities of the patrol within Chippewa County. Members of the patrol are: Captain-John A. Dean. Lieutenants-J. Harold Ely and John Matheson. Sergeants-G. Venious, J. Paivinen, R. Hayward, J. Bah- ington, R. Mansfield, C. VanDyke, P. Perry, and P.
