The student council is a busy group, and while it has a hand in many of the mechanics of school operation, its chief concern is the building of school spirit and the keeping up of school morale. Here we see the representative system of our America in action. The members are elected by their class to represent them in the affairs of the school. Here in Dyer we like to help govern ourselves by means of monitors and hall guards who are under the supervision of the Student Council. No incident is too trifling nor any event too serious for it to tackle, and its members are receiving experience which will be invaluable to them in future life situations. 24

t Lead Activities Planning programs, raising money, reading scientific literature,—these are only a few of the responsibilities of the club officers who are really the young executives of the school. They do their best to carry out the wishes of their club members, to introduce new activities, and to keep the groups functioning smoothly. Dyer students believe like Benjamin Franklin, that one should never ask, refuse, or resign an office.

Speech Clubs Present Programs LEFT TO RIGHT: Virgil Schiesser. Mary Kirk. Sandra Tucker. Pat Horner. Dwight Phillips. Travis Barker. Neva Piepho. Elaine Schutz. Jeanne Clark. Whether it's a dance routine for a Christmas program or a panel discussion for National Brotherhood Week, the speech classes are asked to provide the talent. They have become skillful at whipping up a program at a moment's notice, and the young speakers have become experts at making prepared or im- promptu speeches. Pictured above are the TANGLED TONGUES who participated in the discussion program given for American Education Week, and shown below are the girls from the SPEECH CADETS who made up the sparkling chorus line that was a part of the Christmas program. s p E E C H C A D E T S LEFT TO RIGHT: Char Kwiatkowski.
