GUARDIANS OF DEMCDCRACY The motivating power behind the Astoria l-ligh School student body is the Student Council, which plans the avtivities and outlines the policies for the school year. Mr. Towler is the high council, with the students headed by the student body prexy, l-larold Oja. Completing the council were the other student body officers: First vice president, Wesley Anderson, second vice president, Earl Fedje, third vice president, Dick Bumala, secretary, Grace Elaine Gulhaugen, treasurer, Phyllis At- wood, and athletic manager, John Verschueren. These Student Body officers have successfully carried out their duties and have been privileged to be the ruling council over a student body housed in a new building. Since the reconstruction of the school building, the student council has had an excellent meeting place in Mr. Towler's inner office. There, in an atmosphere made businesslike by appropriate furniture, many important matters were discus- sed, from amendments to the Constitution to the advisability of breaking worn-out traditions. Besides controlling student activities, the Student Council has the responsibil- ity of overseeing the financial status of the entire student body, including the bills macle by individual clubs. Through exercise of their power-to provide assemblies, to guard the consti- tution, to encourage student activities-the council is getting a taste of the func- tions of a representative body in a democracy.
