The Student Council is on extremely octive society composed of the closs officers, repre- sentatives of school organizations and floor proctors who all together voice the opinion of the students and who work to bring about closer relationship between the faculty and pupils of the school. The Council has enjoyed a very profitable and interesting yeor under the guidance and leadership of our two affable ond competent odvisors, Miss Brown and Mr. O'Laughlin. Our able President, Eugene Nash heads the following staff of officers: First Vice Presi- dent, Doris Lovelli; Second Vice President, John McPhee; Secretary-Treasurer, Phyllis Berry. This yeor the council has accomplished numerous projects for the benefit of all. The President ond a committee mode a visit to the Student Council of a neorby city to observe their woys of doing various tosks. March twenty-ninth a delegation of eight was sent to Wellesley, and accompanying them, five representatives to be present at the Eostern Massachusetts Student Council Convention. Commendation is due George Henderson, an octive and prominent member of the Council who conducted admirably one of the four meetings held at the convention, when our President was unable to attend. Many worthwhile ideas were exchanged and will be put into practice in future years.

F 8rown It ADI ATOK STAFF The presses rolled the Radiator on to greater success this year under the capable lead- ership of George Henderson, whose energy and enthusiosm were an inspiration to the stoff. Celio Lindsay and Warren Syer were Associate Editors. Miss Olive B. MacPherson, foculty advisor, brought the magazine to o degree of excellence unequalled in previous years. Under her supervision the Editorial Room hos become o laboratory for student initiative and re- sponsibility. Most outstanding in these qualities wos the work of Virginia Scott, who man- aged the poetry work for two yeors. She wos conspicuous for her congenial manner and ability to give constructive criticism. The Humor Page reflected the wit and good toste of Phyllis Berry. Jean Fuller, in her unossuming, but efficient way, wrote the Exchanges, and sent the Radiator to oil parts of the country. Alden Greenlaw, Alice Nelson, and John North did fine work on Senior Class Notes; Marilyn Smith and Shirley Goodwin, Stories and Essays; Ruth Hayes, Alumni; Alice Louzon and Charlotte Pugatch, School News. Next year we shall mention the present Juniors, who include some invaluable workers. To Michael Stratis, for supplying the mogozinc’s greotest need, the Stoff gives thanks. Francis Hinckley's cartoons also deserve praise. Many poges of manuscript were skilfully done by three of the school's best typists, Helen Lord, Georgia Rigas, ond Edith Hort. Mr. Laurence A. Sprague's yeors of practical experience guided us through onother suc- cessful year in the business division, with Roland Bottis as student Business Manager.
