Few of us realize the extent of the duties of our student council. Planning interesting activities is not the only service which it performs. Students can freely express their opinions and air their grievances in regard to school regulations through their home room representatives. The representa- tives serve as a connecting link between students Ruiz' 2: lluirller. Heiver jim. Srlwcl, Gr.1l'l7ef. fllerzxr, R.

The student council is truly a democratic group which promotes the best interests of the students. XY'e hope that in the future it will continue to develop into an im- portant influence in the governing and adminis- tration of school affairs. Rllll' is Krueger, Skeefx, Il4lNll'1'ld. K. Kmfw.
