STUDENT EUUNEIE ETHST SEMESTER President-Marilynn Williams Vice-President--Barbara West Secretary--Helen Kilmer Treasurer-Buthann Beyer Under the leadershinp of Marilynn Williams, the second semester Council carried out the plans for a rec-room set up by the first semes- ter Council. The recreation room of the gym was fixed up with card tables, ping pong equip- ment, candy and coke machines, and a nickelo- deon. Open each day from two to five o'clock, the rec-room proved to be an instant success and to fill a need that had long existed on the campus. Not satisfied with this accomplishment, the Council revised the Student Activity Ticket, dis- Marilynn Williams Barbara West continuing the Central Cultural Series and real- lotting the money from the Series to the various Student publications and organizations benefit- ting from theticket. Bevising the Student Con- stitution, passing on various decisions concern- ing student behavior, and sponsoring all-stu- dent assemblies helped to fill out the program for this very active Council. Last, but not least, the Council lent their financial aid to the Kangaroo and gave the very successful Kangaroo Hop.

STUDENT EUUNETE SEEUNU SEMESTER President-lames McCue Vice-President-lack L. Green Secretarye-Vivian Ritchey Treasurer-Barbara West Finding themselves with only one returning officer, Vice-President lames McCue, the Coun- cil had the difficult problem of filling the other vacancies and satisfying all factions on the Council at the same time. After much discus- sion, many compromises, and some very irri- tated nerves, it was decided that Mr. McCue, Dentist, would take over the Presidency, lack Green, also a dental student, would be Vice- President, while the offices of Secretary and Treasurer would go to L.A. Students Vivian Ritchey and Barbara West, respectively. With these officers at the helm, the Council gave the traditional Quad-Wrangle, cmd also sponsored a bi-monthly rec program on Eri- lames McCue lack Green day nights. To help all new students get ac- quainted, the Council gave several mixers. Not feeling content to continue a purely so- cial program, the Council turned to trying to convince the Administration of the need for inter-scholastic athletics. Failing at this Cothers have failed before themb, they asked the Admin- istration for a rec-room where students could spend free hours without the restraining dignity of the Browsing Room. Plans were drawn up and the Administration permission granted when election time interferred and the comple- tion of the plans had to be left to the second semester Council.
