SClIl'llllllDllE5llNlVJllf fIl3GDlIfllIl5lll4l3lIlllf9 The year 1945-1946 was a most successful one for the Farm School Student Council. bnder the able leadership of Phil Hoffman. the council was most influential in keeping up the school morale and in keeping our campus beautiful. Because of the small numbers of the student body one council represen- tative Was dropped from each class. After deciding to give the veteran a voice in the student council, it was pointed out by the administration that the Vets would soon become regular students and therefore will not need separate representation. The council was instrumental in bringing to Farm School a regular intra- mural athletic program, something new in the school's history. It was due to the councils action that better laundry facilities were placed in our wash- rooms. The council, as usual, was prominent in the social aflfairs of the school. Several shindigs and two dances were sponsored by the council. The record of this student council was unique in that all Hllutts' turned in for breaking freshman rules were given a fair trial. Vie feel con- fident that under the junior college setup the student council will continue to show that Farm School is a model of democracy in action.

MACY BRENNER , POULTRY Age 18 Brooklyn, N. Y. JUNIOR YEAR: Varsity Football, Basketball and Baseball. Student Council, Varsity Club SENIOR YEAR: Varsity Football and Baseball. Student Council, Var- sity Club Macy Wins the title of class lover hands down. He leaves behind him a trail of broken hearts extending from Philadelphia to Doylestown, east to New York, and north to Connecticut. lVlacy was potentially the most intelligent student in the class. Unfortunately, however, he turned his talents to the art of money making and spent most of his time checking up on his laundry concession. VVith his vivid imagination, he discovered many little ways of saving labor in the poultry department. He took part in all sports but excelled on the football field. ln basketball, he obtained the nick-name of the Brains C?D. When he leaves school Macy expects to be employed on a poultry farm in Connecticut, that is, if the army doesn't seek his talents first.

cdlllllllllqllllllllijlllig Farm School was honored by our arrival on hlarch 22, 1944, starting with a class of twelve fellows, comprising pool sharks, football players, and soda jerks, we steadily worked our way up to a strong little band of' over forty, featuring scholars, diplomats, athletes, poets, and what-nots. Our now greatly depleted ranks show that we were a war class. Our enviable service record shows that over one-third of our class, when it was at its full strength, has seen or is seeing service in our armed forces. Our representation on the varsity teams is noteworthy. It was this class that was instrumental in the building of the school canteen. It might also be well to mention that as both Freshman and Juniors, we won the Fresh- man-Junior games. The class of ,47 has done its best to hold high the school spirit for which Farm School is so famous. We have been with Farm School during its darkest moments. VVe are most proud to be with it as it starts its wonderful ascent toward a Junior College. It is regrettable that we consist of only eleven and it is inevitable that we shall soon grow smaller. Whether' we have one or eleven, we shall strive to uphold the traditions of the Old Schooll' and fight and sacrifice to raise the standards of the new.
