Q The fall semester of 1954-1955 was a busy one tor Sexton High School. One of the first responsi- bilities ot the Student Council this year was pre- paring for the Bellamy Flag Award. Members ot the council were hosts to the student guests, and several committees helped to make final arrange- ments for the assembly. The school spirit committee, under Art Cowens, was very active during the first semester. Under Artis capable direction, several pep assemblies were held throughout the year to build spirit among the student body. OFFICERS T. Knight, Sgt.-at-Arms President, C. Millionis, Secretary One annual highlight is the school talent assem- bly. Don Roose, chairman of the assembly com- mittee, did a swell job in getting this show together. The service project for the year was a Toys for Totsv dance, held just before Christmas. Response was excellent and the dance was a success in every way. Other projects for the year included the Home- coming Festivities, beginning of a school safety committee, sale of lnter-City Bus tickets, and many after-game dances.

STUDENT COUNCIL OFFICERS Standing: D. Ileeke, Vice-President, and H. johnson, President Seated: C. Brown, Secretary: Mr. Clark, Adviser, R. Neller, Sgt.-at-Arms Under the guidance of Dick johnson, the second semester Student Council accomplished many com- mendable things .... Among these was a twirp dance, which was sponsored jointly with the Girls' League. The twirp dance was the climax of a twirp week, during which the girl was requested to take over the fellowis job as the provider on dates. One of the highlights of this semester's council was the exchange talent assembly with Eastern High. Our own talent show visited Eastern and was well accepted as was theirs when it performed here. The assembly committee, under Don Roose, was responsible for the details of this exchange. Other noteworthy accomplishments were voting financial assistance to the school's Oracle, charter- ing a bus to send our Pep, band to Flint for the basketball tournaments, and acting as hosts to the Chelsea High School senior class on their visit to our school. Some sections of the school constitution were reviewed, and a few amendments were proposed but no definite decision was made. Buck Row: XVilson, Nelligan, Herbert, Hollis, McConigal, Ilenderson, B.
