Student Association The Students Association originated for the purpose of stimulating and developing school spirit, encouraging participation in school activities, promoting personal initia- tive and cooperation, and preparing us more fully for an understanding of our national democracy. Our Constitution provides for a Senate, headed by a President: a Supreme Court, presided over by a Chief Iusticeg and a House of Representatives, composed of mem- bers chosen by the students of each advi- sory section. Each section is entitled to one Representative in the House. Other ser- vices are rendered by the Six Footers and Five Foot Femmes. MICHAEL I. LOPUSZANSKI S. A. President One of the governing bodies of the Stu- dents Association is the Senate, composed of one boy and one girl from each of the four upper classes. The President of the S. A. is the presiding officer, who is elected by a majority vote of the students. It has the power to direct and control stu- dent activities. Proposed regulations and laws must first be voted upon by this body, then by the House of Representatives, before they can become official laws.
