Lehi Lions Club Hosts Zone Party Members of the Lehi Lions Club were hosts at a Zone Party last Thursday evening.

Bantam Basketball Results, Benefit Game Sat., Feb. 5 18-1- 3. 768-269- 2, 1 improve the school from the student' s point of view, Mr. Burgess said. During his years at the school a student should have the opportunity of being a representative at least once. The Council, which is composed of two representatives from each class, with the exception of the kindergarten, Includes 32 students. From this council, the group elects a president, vice president, who is president-elec- t; a secretary and a historian. The representatives are named for a 12 week period, of alternating so that one-ha- lf the group is new each six weeks. During the year three sets of offices will be named, inasmuch as the kindergarten does not send representatives, the vice president serves as their delegate. The Council meets each week with their advisor, Mrs. Helen Bowcutt, and discusses and works on various projects. They have set up a code to operate under and have worked on various safety projects, assemblies featuring student talent and have formulated a rule book for the various playground games. A project that has been completed and was deemed successful was that of Improved behavior in the lunch room. Ideas were received from students on what should be done to make the lunch room a more -- desirable place. From the ideas submitted, a list of rules was drawn up by the council, and the students were invited to draw pictures or pos-te- rs illustrating them. These drawings have been displayed in the lunch room on a class level throughout the year. Mr. Burgess said that discontent on the playground was a disturbing factor because everyone could not agree on the rules for a particular game. The Council decided to have the rules for the various games, such as tether ball, soft ball, soccer, touch football, square ball, witches hat and dodge ball, printed into a booklet and distributed throughout the school so that each class has access to a copy. In this way when aquestion arises as to the rules of a particular game, they can refer to the booklet. Another advantage is that everyone at the school plays by the same rules. Several copies of the booklet are also in the school library and the students are welcome to review them at any time. Teachers at the school cooperated in this project by looking up the rules for the games and typing them on master sheets for the students. Current officers of the Council are Kay Christofferson, president; David Dorton, vice president; Jay Christofferson, secretary; and Gary Carlton, secretary. Immediate past officers were Jay Christofferson, president; Kay Christofferson, vice president; Kenley Donaldson was secretary and Rebecca Kirkham, historian.
