Seq-Qauefznmenl' A self-government system has been in opera- tion at Boys Town for many years. It is a Mayor- City Council form of govermnent. It helps give our citizens of Boys Town practice in governing and knowledge and respect for our democratic American system of government. A new mayor and city council are selected each six months on the following basis: From among the twenty-five cottages commissioners are selected five council- men. One of these five is elected by his fellow students in the high school section to the position of Mayor. The city clerk is appointed by the May- or and is usually the latterls campaign manager. Membership on the council is a high honor for it indicates fine ability, willingness to assume re- sponsibility, and the confidence and trust of fel- low students. Seniors VVayne Maski and James Brady ser- ved as Mayor during the two six-month terms of the current school year. Members of Mayor Mas- kils council, who served from July, 1957, to Jan- uary, 1958, were Robert Cross, Mike Trevino, James Brady and Iames Cordon. Clifford NVil- liams was city clerk.
