Student Congress Early in October of 1939, a new student body president concocted a plan for the formation of a governing body to assist the Executive Committee and better represent the students. Today, two-term President Art Baird's brain child, Congress, is the most respected and efficient ruling organization in the school. Among the many things the assembly accomplished during the year, the outstanding action was the revising and correcting of the Student Body Con- stitution Which had become obsolete with the changing times. Principal E.E, Wood Was Well pleased with the activites of the group and expressed his favor in an address at the first meeting of the spring semester when he closed With, l know what you are doing is Worth While! Representing the students at the semi-monthly meetings were presidents of classes, organization officers and the student heads of school activities. The congressmen closed both semesters with a Congressional Banquet to which school officials were invited. BOARD OF SCHOOL TRUSTEES Ernest E.
