It is being distributed to the student body, free of charge, on a monthly basis. The entire production of the paper has been taken over by the staff, as a new mimeoscope and mimeograph machine were purchased for the school. Edith Rye and Genevieve Scharine were the co-editors, with Miss Dorothy Onsager as the adviser. At the beginning of the year there was a volunteer staff of fifty, but after a short time it was narrowed down to a cap- able and workable staff of about thirty-five. In addition to its news stories there were illustrated covers, senior and cadet interviews, sports, activity news, gossip, fashions, announcements, and creative writing by City High students. The staff also took charge of the production of programs for the speech class play and the annual choir concert, as well as duplicating copies of the Student Council Constitution. The newspaper was supported through a school fund designated for that purpose. Other miscellaneous expenses were financed by the candy and pom pom sale at Homecoming. Page Nineteen

at-ravi TIES 'Hein The newly organized student council of City High is a result of a petition circulated during the beginning weeks of school. As school- wide interest was shown, five class officers with Miss Kanable and Mr. james, attended a regular meeting of the Janesville Student Council on October 4. The following day, a general assembly was called to ac- quaint the student body with the operations of a council. The assembly was dismissed to class meetings to elect representatives to draw up a constitution. Representatives, numbering two from each class, included the following: Jerry Liden, Edith Rye, Harry Ambrose, Donna Baker, Delores Chamberlain, Kay Cummings, Steve Ambrose, and Wally Peterson. Copies of the constitution were distributed to the student body on December 12. The constitution was ratified by a unanimous vote of the students. The constitution provides for an election of representatives by classes, according to the population of each class. The following fifteen class representatives were elected to the council: Freshmen: Earl Wohlust, Marilyn Monn, Wally Peterson, Steve Ambrose, Elizabeth Roe, Sophomores: Pat Bartelak, Kay Cummings, Delores Chamberlain, Juniors: Harry Ambrose, john Adsit, Donna Baker, Miriam Chapman. Seniors, Edith Rye, jerry Liden, and Bud Ardelt. Mr. Garriott, the appointed adviser, met with the Council members at the first regular weekly meeting on January 12. The following officers were elected by a secret ballot and compose the executive board. President-Bud Ardelt Secretary-Miriam Chapman Vice president-jerry Liden Treasurer-Harry Ambrose A suggestion box was placed in the study hall as a means of students voicing their opinions and desires for matters to be brought before the Council. The Council through its four standing committees CNoon-hour, Service, Ways and Means, and Publicityb has taken definite steps toward the betterment of our school. Various matters including assembly programs, selection of the Junior Prom and Homecoming Court mem- bers, support of a pep club, and a good citizenship campaign which included locker inspection are only a few of numerous matters which came before the Student Council. The Council also organized and directed a pro- gram for a P.T.A. meeting in March, at which time this group was informed as to the work of the Council. Although it has been in operation for only one semester the student council has done outstanding work. Its organization has been a big and important step toward co-ordinating the students and faculty of City High. , ,A,,.,- Student Council lint-it Row: Mr. Garriott, J. Iiiden, A. Ardelt, H.

THE BAND The City High School Band had another successful year under the direction of Mr. C. A. Part. lt had a part throughout the year in many high school assemblies and athletic events, and gave excellent musical train- ing to many grade and high school students. On October 14, which was our Homecoming, the band, in dress uniform, led the parade through town and paraded on the athletic field between halves forming a B for Burlington and a for Wliitewziter. A pep band, made up of a selected group of musicians, played at football and basketball games throughout the year. A junior band was reorganized this year to give younger musicians experience. It had a membership of about forty or fifty. On January Sl the grade and high school students were entertained by a band concert. Some of the special numbers during this concert were a mirimba solo by Kay Spuhler, and a comet solo by Diane Krejci. On February 20 ten members from our band played in the Mass Band concert which was held at Lake Mills, with Dr. Sarig, director of the University of Wisconsin band, conducting. During the spring months the band spent a great deal of time on selections for the Music Festival, held again in Wliitewater with City High as the host school. I'up:v Twenty
