Previously, the Student Council has
been faced with two bills of major in
terest and has approved and passed
them. One pertains to order in the
halls during change of classes and
marching to and front chapel. This
bill is not new but a complete collec
tion of the many former laws passed
concerning order. The Council rea
soned that one bill containing all the
laws was far more useful and handy
than many scattered regulations.
The lattei bill, the Morgan-Weblt
Mediation Act, relates to a problem
causing coi.sideiahle friction . this
school term.. That is, who is to sell
'-refreshments a; the different athletii
programs for the purpose of raising
funds for class or organization:'!
needs. Realizing that this will a!
ways be a problem until something
■ is done about it, the Council has seen
fit to authorize a committee made up
of the President and Faculty Adviser
of the Council, plus four councilors,
chosen by the President, to use the
bill and 'ht it judgement in deciding
who shall sell refreshments, et cetera.
This bill is to go into effect the next
school term.
Again the Student Council will
sponsor Sunshine Sue and her Com
pany in the school auditorium. Al
ready posters have been received, but
the date of her coming i.s uncertain.
For solid laughter and entertain
ment Mr. Terrill’s section of the
ninth grade presented a program
last week titled, “Uplifting the
Heathen”. The cast was made up
of one boy and sixteen girls seated
in their meeting room of their club.
To hear the conversation among them
no one could refuse bursting into
laughter.
Monday morning the High School
students gathered in the auditorium
for the purpose of selecting a school
song. For sometimes the school has
been without a song and recently the
Council aroused interest among the
students. Six students were interest
ed and had initiative enough to put
words to a tune. The remnant of
the former Sextet. Beverly Moore.
Nelle Perry, Charlotte Bunch and
Ruth Goodwin, sang four of the pro
posed songs while the authors of two
of the songs sang their own. After
hearing them read and sang the stud
ents decider that their school song
■should be the one written by Pete
Manning to the tune of Carolina Col-
