Seemingly impossible for the entire student body to meet and discuss problems that may arise within the school, the pupils of each home-room elect two representatives to voice the students opinion. The results of the bal- lot casting and elections produce the STUDENT COUNCIL. The council is under the capable and efficient direction of our super- vising principal, Mr. Frank Keller, and is headed by the officers elected by the council members themselves. When the student council is called to meet, immediately the student knows that there is a difficulty to cope with or a special assembly to be planned. After the meeting comes to a final climax the student council members relate the results to their respective home-rooms. If the point dis- cussed was a planned activitiy, the home-rooms then vote on the question. The results of the voting determine whether or not the activity will take place, this gives the entire student body a voice in all school activities. We the Seniors of 1952 congratulate the representatives of the student council, and we feel sure that those who cast their ballot in electing this won- derful little group need not regret the results.

The activities are depicted by the Reflector staff as the branch of the rose bush for a very good reason. Just as the branch carries life-giving food from the roots to the rosebud which quickly bursts into a full bloomed rose, so the activities help in making a sophisticated senior out of a frightened freshman. The activities help the new students feel more relaxed and at home and help them get into the swing of things. The activities are just as indis- pensable to a school as are the branches to a rose bush.

On this particular branch of our rose we find a group of seniors who deserve laurels as well as roses. This fine assem- blage of students is our Audio-Visual Staff. Morning after morn- ing their familiar voices bring the news of the day consisting of world, sports and school events. Not only were their efforts cen- tralized on reporting alone, but during the course of the year they sponsored programs that condemned Communism and aggression and all such teachings and ideas. Mr. Robert Warren is the excellent and eager instructor of this group and his effort to produce an outstanding Audio-Visual Staff was seen in his plannings of the above mentioned programs. Each member of the club was very conscientious in perform- ing his part in the bringing of the news and there were very, very few days that station F. H. S. failed to broadcast. To this group of fine seniors we again say they deserve laurels as well as roses. Seventeen
