Second row--JOE CALLAHAN, JEAN VANDERJACK, JIMMIE STAMPS, PAT TAYLOR, JIM RATHBUN JOANNE RIESCH, HENRY HOFFMAN. With the inspired leadership of Bill Hunnicutt, president, the Washington High Student Council completed another successful term. The organization, form- ed in 1925, is capably advised by Miss Lancefield, librarian. The purpose of The Student Council is to cut down the loss of library books. Locker and room searches are made regularly and by this systematic routine books are found and returned to the library. The Council is a court of its own. When a library book is found in the posses- sion of a student, who has not a justifiable reason for its possession, the Council tries the student and deals with him as seems fit. By this method, the number of stolen books is surprisingly reduced each term. Together with the locker and room searches, talks are given in registration rooms, asking the cooperation of students in conforming to the library regulations. Without this highly efficient organization the fine library that we now have would be practically impossible.

There was a marked increase in student body membership this term, which made possible these expanded activities. A much enjoyed and very successful dance was held prior to the Christmas holi- days. Bill Hunnicutt, president of the student body, has proved himself worthy of his high position in every way. Too much praise cannot be paid Mr. Windnagle. He has cooperated to the fullest extent to make this one of the most successful terms in the history of Washington High School student body organization.

GIRLS' LEAGUE First row-MARGIE ELLIOT, MARY LOU MOORE, FRANCES WILLIAMS, JANICE SHORES, MARY LOUISE ARMSTRONG, BETTY NEUNER, MURIEL SPEAR. Second row-CLEO STAMFER, BETTY CLARK, MAYBEL WILKINS, SHIRLEY JACOB, DE DE PAYNE, JOYCE BERCH. Girls' League has just completed a most successful and active term, and in so doing, has lived up to its high standards of scholarship, friendship, loyalty and character. Early in the term, the officers were installed at the traditional, inspiring cere- mony, shortly afterward the tea for the advisors was held. Vocational Guidance was decided on as the theme for this term, and was the subject of an assembly at which Miss Mahoney spoke on Positions and How to Get Them. The seventh and fifth term teas, sixth and third term parties, ring and pin sale, Hoo-Doo Hop and Sunshine Division barrels all followed in rapid succession. As a climax, Girls' League week was sponsored December 7-ll. The paper was published and a super-stupendous vodvil was produced. This, the first in several years, made another score for Girls' League, with the sixth term coming off with the laurels. But all of this did not just happen-no. Betty Durbin, president, and Miss Lamberson were always behind the girls, and all appreciate their leadership. BETTY FLORENCE BETTY BETTY MARGARET LOIS PLANKINGTON JARVIS DURBIN BAKER YOUNG DEAL
