Sidney Herman Secretary .... . . . . . Ann Mahoney Treasurer ..................... Charles Orcutt Representatives of Executive Board Arthur Howard, Shirley Ferris The monitor system was changed this year to a more efficient method. Many complaints were brought to the Council, and as a result, the new system was begun. Delegates from our Student Council attended the Southeastern Massachusetts Student Council Conventions held at Plymouth and Rockland. Each delegate brought back with him some new methods of operating the Council and also some ways by which the Council can be a better organization. This year the Council iilled and sent some Ameri- can Junior Red Cross gift boxes to the needy and homeless children of the war-torn countries. A committee was again appointed to publish a Freshman Handbook for the incoming fresh- man. Many new items were added to make this book a more helpful tool during their first days at Whitman High. The usual projects, such as carol singing, the Red Cross drive, and the Infantile Paralysis drive. were successfully ca1'ried out by the 1946-1947 Student Council.
