STUDENT LEADERS First Semester BENNY KWONG RUSTY BENNETT LEE SIMS Cheers! to the Student Officers and Council for the first semester. Jordan has benefited from their fine leadership and dependable work. The Executive Council consisted of Student Manager, Rusty Bennett, his assistant, Lee Sims, Council President, Benny Kwong, Vice President, Ted West, and Clerk, Emily Teale. The main things that the Executive Council and Student Council did to improve life at Jordan were to pass a law stating that any damage done to bikes while on school property was to be paid for by the Student Body Fund and the Social Fund, the supplying of services to the school such as the pen machine, which was purchased this year, the pencil machine, book covers, pompons, and the fruit machine, the help they gave to clubs finan- cially, and the successful operation of the Halloween Carnival. Their main fob was to keep up the payments on the Milkshake Machine fknown as the 'Electric Cow'i, pay salaries, and repair equipment. They directed the work of the commissioners and planned the rooting sections for games, arranged the games and transportation to them, and planned air raid and fire drills. Rusty and Lee did an excellent job and passed the government into the able hands of the second semester officers in February. STUDENT COUNCIL TED WEST .lg7W W .Y Y

' STUDENT LEADERS Second Semester TIM DOLAN BENNY KWONG The second semester Student Council and student officers continued the fine leadership of the first semester council. The Council consisted of one student from every homeroom. Student Council met every Thursday and there was a i5-minute homeroom period every Friday morning to allow the representatives time to report to their homerooms. Student Council officers for the second semester were President Phyllis Lyon, Vice President Thomy Robison, and Secretary Jeff McCraken. These officers, along with Student Manager Benny Kwong and his assistant Tim Dolan, constituted the Executive Council. The second semester Council was concerned with the revision of Jordan's Constitution. Rusty Bennett, first semester student Manager, worked with Mr. Stone in revising the constitution. They brought the articles up to date and reviewed the duties of the commissioners. Student Council was also concerned with repairing the public address system, completing the purchase of the milkshake machine, and working with Benny in selecting the commissioners who served ably throughout the semester. The Council worked closly with the Honor Code Commissioner, Julie Sims, and her committee to strenghten and preserve the Honor Code. Early in the semester the section concerning smoking was brought under discussion and agroup of students went to the Palo Alto City Council to ask them to enforce a law requiring that cigarette machines be kept in view of an adult at all times. Benny and Tim helped with the election of an 8th grader to become student manager next year. Student Council PHYLL15 LYON ws YPD! ,gsm-. THORNY ROBIS ON
