Student Council Altered by New Constitution, Strengthens Sofzool Unity Operating under the new constitution, the student council experienced many changes since last year. Class councilors were replaced by homeroom councilors, elected by each individual homeroom. Instead of three candi- dates for each office, only two people vied for each position during election week. Another change was the barring of senior votes from the spring elections. This new student council was also the first to be installed in a ceremony in the stadium. The council's efforts to animate and unify the student body included class competition, with the new addition of spirit con- tests, and the sponsoring of such events as Homecoming and Teacher Appreciation Day. They showed concern for the poor by preparing Thanksgiving baskets and by putting on a Christmas party for underprivileged chil- dren. Student order was maintained by the honor and traffic courts. The Student Council moderators were Sr. John Kfarie and Nfr. Kelly. Senior class officers: Nfichael S 1 -lx. : X 1 s I X.
