The freshman boys have shown great promise in basietball, football and other sports, and the girls show promise in athletics and dramatics. The class has developed a spirit of unity and has a capable group of class oihcers. The sophomore class, graduating from Wadleigh, threw itself wholeheartedly into the whirl of events in the main building. Participating in the Dramatic Club programs and the Vaudeville Show, the sophomores helped to make both the finest we've had in years. In the s orts world we have many candidates for Iirst'team letters next year. In spite of their many social activities, tliie sophomore class has also proved its worth in the classrooms. The junior'Senior Class Play this year found many juniors taking leading roles. The juniors have made a record in sports with such fine football players as Sammy Bellino and Alan Switzer. jean Munson, Norma Bergquist, Marguerite Derro, and Ann Albree have been wonderful cheerleaders, full of pep and vitality.

Halm Lawmakers The Student Council, by virtue of those it includes, is the most truly representative organization in Winchester High School. Homerroom representatives, club representatives, class presidents - virtually every organization in the school is a part of this organization. Because of a late start, the Student Council, headed by President Francis Powers, ably assisted by Peggy Holmes as vice-president, Dorothy 0'Connell as secretary, and Mario Buzzotta as treasurer, did not hold its first meeting until November. Several important programs, however, were sponsored by the Council this year. Foremost among these was Vocation Day. This project was the result of the work of the Winchester High School Guidance Department aided by the Student Council. A selected committee of Student Council members helped to carry out many of the details necessary to the smooth running of this important conference. Next on the list is the Aberjona Club. An organization created to recognize and reward our student leaders in extracurricular activities and our highfranking scholars, the Aberjona Club was once again sponsored by the Student Council. A new honor society in our school is the National Honor Society. Introduced with the aid of the Student Council, this society will doubtless prove an honor and an incentive to those students who are admitted as members. Honor study halls, an experiment whereby student monitors rather than teachers supervise the study hall, received Student Council attention this year. It is to be hoped Winchester High School will realize the importance of honor study halls and continue them. The Student Council is one ofthe most useful organizations in the school, for it gives the students experience in self-government.
