Moon. tudent Council It was decided that the membership of the Student Council should be en- larged this year. After the Associated Student Body president, Jack Swain, had chosen his council for this year, an initiatory meeting was called to inform the members of their purpose and duties. All the business which goes through the Student Body is first brought to the Student Council to be discussed and then presented to the Student Body as a whole. After the first meeting the vice-president, Bobbie Biller, took over as offi- cial chairman, since the Constitution points out that the vice-president of the Student Body shall serve as chairman of the Student Council. The wheels of the council began to turn as work got under way. The first project of the Council was the proposal and drawing up of two amendments to the A.S.B. Constitution. One of these amendments was passed by the Student Body vote and immediately put into effect. The' amendment stated that the Student Council should be enlarged to contain the president and one representative of each club or organization, the Buzz staff, the Cardinal and Gold staff and the Student Court, in addition to the class presidents, two representatives from each class, and the Student Body officers. Thus the num- ber of the Student Council was increased from 16 to 30 members. Four representatives of the Council, accompanied by Jack Swain and Mr. Floyd Browne, attended each of the Santa Barbara-V e n t u r a I n t e r-school Council meetings. One of the other activities of the Council was to revise some of the Student Court rules. All in all, those of the Student Council feel they have done their job well for the year of 1947-48, and they appreciate the cooperation of students and faculty members, because without their help the work of the Student Council could not be successful.
