Whiteside, chairman, with the
other members of the newly-
formed Evaluation Committee is
now compiling the remarks from
Student Council members concern
ing each project; however, we
want to hear from the whole stu

1960, you will find a suggestion
box in the main hall. Please place
any suggestions concerning Stu
dent Council projects in it. We’ll
welcome your ideas.
How do you like our new way
of giving council reports? You
probably noticed that our last two
reports have been in outline form.
This way the council members can
add their own choice bits of in
formation and talk informally with
the homeroom members. Let us
know what you think.
Christmas is a wonderful time
of year! At Senior there seems to
he a special air that fills us with
“that Christmas Spirit.” The Stu
dent Council has really enjoyed
working with you this year, and
weVe looking forward to the new
year.
Hope that little fat man who in
vades our homes on Christmas,
Eve is good to everyone.
Merry Christmas!
—Carol Smith
