THE ECHO 19 4 5 STUDENT COUNCIL The 1944-45 Student Council of T. C. H. S. has been an outstanding organization of the year. Under the faithful leadership of both Miss Koch and Mr. Workman and the following officers: president, Joanne Koch; vice- president, Marilyn Getz; secretary, Velma Koch; treasurer, Bob Hender- shott, this organization has been able to function. During the year the most successful project was the selling of War Stamps. Because of the determined efforts of the council members our sales proved to be almost one hundred per cent. A new idea was presented by the Student Council. They sponsored an all-school dinner the day before the Christmas Holidays. The gym was decorated very attractively. Reverend Young of Peoria gave an interesting talk after the dinner. We hope that it will develop into an annual tradi- tion at T. C. H. S. Several of the schools in this local- ity, namely: Morton and Delavan, ex- changed assembly programs. This was not altogether a Student Council project but in a way we were respons- ible for it. The council also sponsor- ed other programs for our own assem- bly, several school parties, and a danc- ing teacher who gave five lessons to the entire student body. As usual, the Student Council, with the help of several persons from the student body, were responsible for the editing of the “1945 Echo”. Members of the council, who so de- sired, went to the District Student Council Convention at Pekin.
