I tudenl Council WOODLAND HOSTS STUDENT COUNCIL CONFERENCE The Student Council's big event came in the middle of the school year when an Inter-School Relations Council meeting was held here February 21. Twelve schools, including guest school Beaver- ton High, were present to talk over school problems. ASB president, Ron Nelson, presided over the day- long session. In March the council decided to obtain informa- tion on receiving a foreign exchange student in this school, either in the year 1956-57 or 1957-58. The reason for some uncertainty about when this might get under way is that a considerable amount of money must be raised for the transportation and support of a foreign student. The goveming council also voted to purchase, in conjunction with the 'WV' club, a public-address system for the athletic field at an approximate cost of 8500. A plaque system was set up to give recognition to seniors for four years' performance in scholar- ship, dramatics, athletics, music, publications and student leadership. The two-party system of elections was again held C this being the second year of suchj with lots of competition for student offices. Throughout the year Edith Blair served as secretary-treasurer of the Southwest Washington Association of Student Councils. Officers for the past year were Bon Nelson, president, Edith Blair, vice-president, Ioyce Iohn- son, secretary, Melly Cregorious, member-at-large, Laura Pittman, treasurer, and Jim Iolly, assistant treasurer. .
