The convention was held in the Janesville High School which is very beautiful inside and out. I left Madison at 3:00 in the afternoon on Sunday, June 19, with Mr. Wendt. his wife and a foreign exchange student from West. We arrived at the school about Diitemefan 5:00. Shortly after we arrived, we registered. This was the last time I saw Mr. Wendt until we left on June 23. After registering, I was taken to the house where I was to stay during the convention. The first meeting that I attended was a general assembly. This was held at 10:30 on Monday morning. This meeting was very colorful when the state flags were introduced. Although this was the most important part of the first general assembly, we were also entertained by a few distinguished speakers. In the afternoon we had group discussions which lasted from 1:30 to 3:30. From 3:30 till 5:00 most of us were in the recreation room where there were records, ping pong tables, and free refreshments. Between 5:00 and 6:00 we ate in the school cafeteria. After that we had another assembly.

I had a swell time down there and I have learned a lot of information that will be useful to me as Student Council President this year.

Central also had two touchdowns called back-one in the third quarter and the other in the fourth. Both times the team was called for offside. Don Harris, Central's speedy halfback, is a doubtful starter against Beloit,according to Coach Pollock. Harris was hurt in the West game. At first it was feared that he had a broken ankle.
