STUDENT COUNCIL Feeling the need of at greater degree of cooperation among the various activities of Stafford High School, the idea of a Student Council was first conceived in 1956. This organization then functioned under the heading of the Pr1nc1pal's Cabinet. The first Pr1ncipal's Cabinet consisted of four student members and two faculty members to work with Mr. Irwin. The school organizations represented in this first governing body were H1-Y, G. R., WS' Club, and the music organizations. By 1958, representatives were being chosen from each of the three classes, in addition to the former representation. This year the organization has increased to twenty members: senior class--Ruth Boehme, Ted Faleng Junior class--Dotty Jean Kiefer, Jim Christie, sophomore class--T. F, Branaman, Rex Paulsen, F. F. A,--Edward Baar, Bud Metz, S.G,A.A.--Mildred Hayes, Norma Jean Titus, 'S' Club--Howard Soice, Byron Sladeg Alpha Club--Betty McConnaughey, Addie Leah Wise, Hi-Y--Harvey Tretbar, Roy Dunn, Music Club--Norma Hartnett, Ralph Woerten- dyke, G. R.--Vada Newell, Byrd Carey. Mr. Toland, principal, and Miss Spencer served as sponsors. Howard Soice was elected president, and Jerry Evans, secretary and treasurer. However, when Jerry left school at mid-year, Ted Falen was elected to take Jerry's former position. During the year the council changed its title from Princi- pa1's Cabinet to Student Council that it might be affiliated with the Student Council movement, appointed a committee to work on the problem of school parties installed a coke mach- ine in the basement of the building fthe profits to be taken for the sponsoring of school benefitsl. This efficient organ- ization also sponsored the annual of the year, appointed a committee to plan a vocational clinic, and originated the plan of exchanging chapels with the St, John High School. 5
