XY Ti -LE X fy X Government ot, by, for Students STUDENT COUNCIL To guide and direct BHS activities is the main purpose of the student council. This governing body stimu- lates interest and cooperation in all school activities, and strives, in gen- eral, to improve our high school. The student council consists of one representative from each home room chosen by popular vote, and is pre- sided over by the student body presi- dent, George Patterson. Meetings are held whenever there are matters to be discussed or decided. The student council is a cooperative organization working for the good of the student body, and gives each stu- dent a chance to voice his opinion of the school government through his home room representative. MEMBERSHIP Members for this year were: Sen- iors-Donna Dyste, Priscilla Hill, Ruth Norgaard, Helen Schilling, and Tom Wright. Juniors-Harriet Case, Priscilla Gilbertson, Elaine Klein- sasser, Gene McCarty, and Marjorie Wheeler. Sophomores - S t a n l e y Brackenwagen, George Flittie, Lila Mae Lake, Esther Madsen, and Stuart Stevens. Freshmen-Gerald Brown, James Moriarty, Gloria Stratton, Marion Risch, and Yvonne Franzke. PROJECTS The main project of the year is Bobcat Day. For this, the following committees are chosen: Banquet, Dance, Bonfire, and Pep Meeting. The members of these committees are chosen from the student council. This year, through the recommen- dation of the student council, a new project was undertaken in order to obtain money for new bankboards. Under their able leadership it proved to be very successful. 16 Left to right, top to bottom: Esther Madsen, Elaine Kleinsasser, Pris- cilla Gilbertson, Yvonne Franzke, Marian Risch, Stanley Brackenwagen.
