something I could spray on

from drying up and shedding
so quickly? I wish to dress up

places for Christmas and could
do it very much earlier if ever

Also, I'd like assistance on

wipe off with slightly crumpled

Babe Ruth Award

: Babe kuth Award
The elections for the Babe
Ruth Good Sportsmanship Award
were held last week. All seniors
were eligible with one boy and
one girl to be chosen. The win
ners were Shirley Cunningham
and Fritz Watson.
This is not an award given Tor
how many points made out Oh
the ball field or such items as
that but it is based on the gem
!. eral actions and all around
attitude of the student-good
sportsmanship.
Congratulations To both Shir-
ley and Fritz-they are both
good representatives for this
Babe Ruth Award
Student Council
In a general election held in
the school last Monday al noon,
Robert DeVolld was elected the
new vice president of the Stu
dent Council
The campaign speeches Of the
nominees were given last Friday
with four sophomores taking
part.
Each year in the spring sop
homore is elected to this post
and the former vice president
automatically becomes the preSl-
dent for the following year. This
system helps to make certain that
person with some council ex-
perience will be at the head OF
it for the following year while
the new vice president can be
gaining experience. Room rep
resentatives are not elected until
the fall,
The president this year was
Gary Davis and Gary Lyons was
the vice president. Gary Lyons
will, of course, take over the
presidential duties in September
with Robert DeVolld being the
vice president.
