GOLF This year, golf was inaugurated into the athletic department of our school. Granted the use of the Union City Country Club's golf grounds, twenty girls and twelve boys practiced the fundamentals of the game under the supervision of Mr. Carver and Mr. Burbage. Concluding the season, a tournament was held with John Sutton and Martha Jane Mangas having the best scores. Prizes were awarded all other contestants in this sport, which will probably become a definite part of the athletic program. BOWLING Bowling definitely became of age this year, entering its second season as a minor sport. Mr. Burbage was in charge of the entire season which was divided into halves. After the Yankees captured the first-half championship by a one-game margin, the teams were reappointed; the result was a three-way tie for first between the Yankees, Phillies, and Cubs. The Dodgers and Cardinals tied for second, only one game behind the leaders. Robert Brierly had the highest average in the first half, 148, while Elden Blackford was high in the second half with 163.

STUDENT COUNCIL EVERAL years ago the faculty found need of student ideas and opinions on various high school problems. So they conceived the plan of having a Student Council, the members of which were elected by the student body of the high school. This plan proved to be unsuccessful so it was forgotten for the time. A few years later Mr. McCullough himself chose twenty students and proceeded to reorganize the Student Council. I he next year the faculty adopted the following plan which is still being used. The faculty nominates a group of outstanding students from all four classes. The rest is then presented to the student body for the final election of a specified number of the nominees. The most important duties or purposes of the council are: being an advisory to the faculty, taking on certain responsibilities that are helpful to both the students and faculty, and setting an example for the w'hole student body. As this organization does not have a constitution it is flexible and easily changed if desired. The officers of the present Student Council are: George Hill, Jr., President: James Thokey, Vice president; and Martha Jane Mangas, Secretary and T reasurer. The members of the three major committees are: Social Committee—- Victoria Barth, Rosemary Harrison, Jean Parent, Mary Alice Boggs, Winifred Barth, Jane Jellison, John Minnich, Elaine Aukerman, David Kaucher, Martha Jane Mangas, Lois Veit, Max Hook, and James Patchell; Assembly Committee Adabelle Mangas, Betty Jean Shierling, Eleanor Harrison, Marthabelle Chenoweth, Shirley Carver, Ivan Keever, William Chattin: Yearbook Committee James Thokey, June Hart, Dale Hammons, George Hill, Joan Veit, Eloise Pate, Robert Chattin.
