19 STUDENT COUNCIL Betty Munill, ' 50 THE Student Council for 1947-1948 began its activities early in October. The representa- tives for this year are as follows: seniors — Pres- ident Gabriel Jacobucci, Treasurer Jon Flynn, Shirley Damon, Secretary Alette Dolan, James Fettig (succeeded by Stanwood Briggs ) ; juniors — Vice president John Stewart, Jack Mills, Edwin Veiga, Barbara Best: sophomores — Kath- leen Manning, Nancy Breen, Betty Murrill: fresh- men — John Cahir, Arthur Dunphy: grade 8 — Edward Stewart; grade 7 — Edgar Locklin. Mr. Froberger and Miss Harrington, the Coun- cil ' s advisers, have ably assisted the group in all its work. At the first meeting Mr. Froberger outlined eight points on which the Council should take action: school spirit, respect for school property, ways to earn money, formation of a Student Association, worthwhile lunch period activity, suitable football rallies, founding of an honor society, class advisers. As is plainly seen, the pattern of council work has closely followed those suggestions. During the year action was taken on many of these points. Rallies were held, and a newspaper was published, both promoting school spirit; programs were sold at one of the football games; a monitor system was installed in the locker rooms; delegates were sent to Stu- dent Council Conventions to see what other schools were doing to combat common problems, and to see if any other helpful suggestions were mentioned; and preparatory plans were made for a Student Association. It is hoped that in subsequent years the Student Council will continue to work on the ideas sug- gested by the Council of 1947-1948.

BAND, ORCHESTRA AND GLEE CLUB AT present our band and orchestra consist of twenty-five members and seven drum ma- jorettes, under the skillful direction of Mr. Donald Leach. Both groups are comparatively small, and many more members are needed to make a better band. Let ' s all see if we can ' t enlarge it so that Scituate High will have a band and orchestra to be extra proud of. The first major occurrence in the band schedule was to play for the blind men at the Children ' s Hospital on September 30. 1947. The perform- ance was very much appreciated. In November the Scituate High band played at the traditional Scituate-Cohasset Turkey day game, which was played on home territory. Having the band play added considerably to the excitement. At the Blue and White Varieties. the all- school production which was held in December, the band and orchestra played selections during the short intermissions. The glee club has now grown to the number of ninety-five pupils. It is divided into three groups, the freshman and sophomore girls, the junior and senior girls, and all the high school boys. Miss Gertrude Reynolds is in charge of all three groups. On the last day of school before Christinas holidays, the girls ' glee club sang Christmas carols in the corridors. This was enjoyed by both pupils and teachers. Recently Mrs. Glenn Wilson, a well-known voice instructor, offered a scholarship to a pupil in the glee club, the scholarship to be one year of free voice lessons. From several who tried out for the scholarship. Mrs. Wilson chose Laura Cerilli as the most talented singer.
