Miss Brantley The Iunior Student Council, composed of twenty-five regular representatives, met once a week after school. The council served more as a contact between the faculty and the lun- ior High students than as a lawmaking body. Members served as guides for new students in the seventh grade, and helped the faculty to plan the assembly programs for the Iunior School. The council had several well defined responsibilities. lt was each council members duty to boost attendance at the team games, to promote the magazine sales cam- paign, and to act as a representative of the junior school student body.

various committees. The council also took part in an assembly cf the St. Louis County high school governments, where various common problems were discussed. This county coun- cil met monthly. Many traditional school events found their origin in the Student Council. Among the nu- merous activities it sponsored throughout the year were Hello Day, Football Week, Basket- ball--Wrestling Week, Color Day, Pep Rally, The Dance Carnival, and Spring Sports Day. Three parties' were given by the council dur- ing the year, the Faculty Tea, the New Student Party in the fall, and the Alum Party held after the Kirkwood-Webster basketball game in De- cember. The annual magazine campaign was also a student council responsibility, and was again successful. ln the line of service to the school, the coun- cil sponsored the Cheerleaders, the Activity Ticket, the coke machine, the lost and found, and elections. The council also worked with the guidance council in the choosing of lunch- room and hall guides. School assemblies also come under the juris- diction of the student council, and each year the group itself puts on an explanatory program to keep the students informed on the council plans and projects.

The boys main- tained order by preventing students from run- ning, from cutting in line, and from buying food for others. Another ot their duties was to see that the cafeteria was kept in good con- dition tor the second and third lunch hours. The Monitors gained the respect ot their telf low students by seeking fair play among all. Those students who had run for the otfice of Iunior School President automatically were Monitors. The others who served in this ca- pacity were chosen by Miss Brantley through recommendations ol the taculty members who had had the boys in their classes, and through the suggestions ol the Iunior Student Council. mdftlffdfld Trvvn I u - Ihre
