A strong and active movement to make our school more democratic I through student participation, more effective through student-faculty co-l^ operation, and better institutionally for developing student responsibility i ^ is the goal of the members of this year’s student council. | C_^ If the student council is to become a vital factor in the life of the i school, it must have some real work to do. This means work that has to be done and that can best be done by students or at least with the assistance of the students. “What is the student council d o in g “What are your plans.’ ” | To accomplish things worthwhile it takes time. In September, the j officers of the student council were introduced to ihe freshmen. At this I assembly the purposes of the student council were explained. Therefore, we arc clear on the functions of the organizations. Remember— In order for any organization to function properly it must have some kind of financial assistance. Do not forget your assess­ ment that you voted on October i8. Plans for the month of November. The organization is planning to purchase some new equipment for the student union. The caps, in school colors, for freshmen will be avail­ able soon. And, the coronation of “Miss Homecoming,” which is a pro- j(ct of the student council is scheduled for November 8, 1957. You a;e invited to attend the meetings of the student council, which is icheduled for the second Monday of every month. The officers of the student council are: Ted Lewis, president; Bernard Neal, vice president; Lucie Boulding, secretary; Samuel C arter, representa­ tive at large, and Adelaid Jackson, treasurer. Each class also has one representative.
