This year has brought the school something new besides the Victory Corps. 'Pbc old schedule of assembly programs has been altered beyond recognition. Now each presentation is given twice during the day set aside for assembly, and that day is interchangeable with any of the other four when it is deemed necessary. Therefore we often have Wednesday before and after school but Friday while we are in school. This plan eliminates controversy over the qualities of pro- grams seen by different sections, one of the outstanding but unimportant difficulties existing in former years. For several years the School Council lias promised an open meet- ing to enable students to see bow plans such as those for the assemblies arc made. This year one of the very few open councils was held — 20 —

We would like to express our gratitude to the many students who worked in Helen Lynch’s Eligibility Committee to gather data for the Mirror. To train the nation’s youth and lit them for defending their country has been the problem of education since December Seventh. 1941. Now the most universal change to come over education, with the exception of the inauguration of secondary schools, is the now Victory Corps, effective in Columbia since January. This elass is the first to have the advantage of preliminary training in Pre-Flight Aero- nautics, Radio, Theory of Machines, and many other courses. Seniors of '43 have not only spent a year and a half in school under wartime — 19 —

Students came to the meeting and watched the order of business, though for obvious reasons were requested not to take part in the discussion. In the homerooms council meetings are more thoroughly discussed. At the insistence of the council officers ami the faculty, Monday pre-council and Wednesday post-council meetings are scheduled on the bulletin for every homeroom. These have more closely united the homeroom and the student council. An- other improvement appearing this year has been the practice of holding no other meetings on «lavs set aside for school council. In this way the greatest problem of the more active students who are members of committees, clubs, and the council has been solved and the work accomplished is of a finer calibre and vastly more useful.
