To work out a new system for conducting elections was the principal project of Gran- ite's House of Representatives. Under the sponsorship of Mr. Bird, the fifty-seven dele- gates, selected from each home room to repre- sent the student body in all governmental affairs, discussed plans for setting up voting procedures similar to those of the Federal Government. For the first time in the school's history, Granitians experienced the obligations of a voter to register and vote at specified precincts for the candidates of their choice, just as voting citizens of the United States. Led by Steve Stewart, speaker of the house, Barry Bingham, vice chairman, and Colleen Ellertson, secretary, the House sponsored a door decorating contest during the Yuletide season to increase holiday spirit. 23, l I
