Student Council The Student Council of East High School was organized in 1926 to promote a closer co-operation between the faculty and the student body. It was the oppor- tunity for students and teachers to main- tain discussions common to both. The Council in 1926 felt that if students could participate in school government, they would be better equipped to be good citizens. The Council of 1941 has the same purpose. During the first semester in November the All City Council was formed. It was composed of the president and vice- president of each Kansas City high schoo1's Student Council. The objective of this council is to unite the schools of the city, and to provide a common ground for them to meet and discuss problems. In order that there may be a person to represent East while our elec- tion is going on next year, a lunior was elected to go with the president and vice- president of the second semester this year. After serving this last term, he will be present the first semester of next year. In this manner East will always hold one person over for the following year. With the sponsorship of the junior Chamber of Commerce of Kansas City, the All City Council held an All Students Day at the City Hall. A mayor was elected from all the schools. There were 108 oflices held by that number of students from the different high schools. At 9 o'clock Friday morning, March 28, the students elected or appointed to their positions reported to work at the City Hall. That evening a banquet was held and those participating in the All Stu- dents Day were guests. This plan was in- troduced by Dr. Hunt and is to be an annual observance. The first semester Council appointed a committee to rewrite its constitution so as to bring it up-to-date. A new form of election of the presi- dent and vice-president of the Student Council was adopted. It is a more demo- cratic method in that the whole student body votes instead of just the represen- tatives. Walter Copowycz was the first Student Council president to be elected this way. The rest of the election was carried on within the Student Council as usual. Several successful mixers were spon- sored by the councils of both semesters during the course of the year. 1271
