The members of this highly important organization are chosen from the homerooms. One representative and one alternate are elected from each third-hour class except for the study hall and chorus, from which two representatives and two alternates are elected. Special preliminary meetings were held for the benefit of the representatives in order to acquaint them with parliamentary procedure and their responsibilities as Student Assembly repre- sentatives. When a student is selected to be a represen- tative, he automatically becomes a member of one of the Student Assembly committees. This year the Student Assembly committees included a division of the Publicity Committee into Art and Articles, and a special committee formed to supervise the collection for our two foster chil- dren, six-year-old Yum Kwang Sook, a Korean war orphan, and Regina Zigmunds, a twelve- year-old Latvian displaced in Germany. Pat Wehking was chairman of the Special Commit- tee for War Orphan Collections. ln the spring of the preceding school year the Student Assembly officers were elected. They were Dave Young, president, Don Luke, vice- president, JoAnn Geiger, secretary, and Bob Duncan, treasurer. The Student Assembly met every other week to learn and practice democratic principles in discussing all problems which arose in the home- rooms and which were brought to the meetings by the representatives. The sponsors of this year's Student Assembly were Miss Ellen Smith, who has been working with the students for the betterment of Ferguson High School since T944 and Mrs. Marian Sniffen who has also been a sponsor of the Student Assembly since T952 STUDENT ASSEMBLY REPRESENTATIVES Back Row: Paul Plavnick, Harold Kohrs, John Schultz, Dave Pope, Howard Hamlin, Ned Lips, Hutson Carspecken, Tom Hamlin, Dave Crocker, Fred Krieger, Don Farmer, Larry Bollinger, Dave Killmer.
