Of the many projects undertaken this year one the West High Girls Club Magazine Agency has proved to be an interesting experiment. It is hoped that through the years this agency may become very active in the community and valuable to the school. Dorothy Johnson has been the active director of the Red and Blue pencil sales of this year. The Christmas projects were conducted most successfully under the leader- ship of lane McGuire. With the aid of Mrs. Ritzman a large number of families were made happy through the efforts of the girls. A beautiful spirit among the students resulted in an overwhelming success. The last few months of the school year were spent in planning for a large delegation to represent West High at the annual Girls' Club Conference held on April 23, at Bloom Township High School. The girls of West High as members of the club wish to thank Mrs. Smith especially, for the fine work she has made possible through her suggestions and whole-hearted cooperation. We know that without her sincere interest our great success this year would have been impossible. Under her guidance the club is sure to prosper. Forty-Eight Z' -, 11 FRONT ROW tLeft to Right?

Howe. Out of the twenty years spent in teaching at West High Miss Howe has devoted eleven terms to teaching journalism and acting as head advisor for the school newspaper. She has always taken a special interest in extra-curricular activities being willing to cooperate with stu- dents not only on the newspaper but also on other student projects. The announcement of her resignation brought regret to those who knew her. Snappy feature stories and varied make-up have filled The Red and Blue s columns. As the school year drew to a clos the announcements of the Student Council elections were scooped by the paper and were dis- tributed to all who entered the building.

A. C. Ridinger was the faculty advisor. With the cooperation of the administrative authorities the council endeav- ored to set forth well-organized extra-curricular activities essential to an -offi' cient school system. The organization envisioned a monitorial system and further advancement of the activity ticket plan which would be entrusted to it in the future. The fact that the student body needed coordination in assemblies and pep rallies was recognized. With these ideals in mind a constitution was drawn up and ratified by the student body through the twenty charter-member organizations. The members of the council obtained wide powers in dealing with school affairs. It was their duty to supervise and coordinate activities. They set up the machinery that governed the elections in all organizations. Some of the foremost functions of the council lay in conveying student opinion to the ad- ministrative authorities of the school and acting as a legislature and a court of last resort in settling disputes between or within member-organizations. The student body retained the privilege of referendum in voicing its senti- ments When the students felt it necessary. While the association is still in its infancy the student body of West High realizes that therein lies greater student participation.
