D iw Aoiiow One of the basic tenets of American democracy is the con- cept of representative government. Therefore, it is not surprising that the young people of Jen- nings Junior High enjoy experimenting with this vital phase of American government. The junior High Student Council is the organ of the experi- ment. The organization offers students the op- portunity to participate in school government and experience as effi- cient leaders. Officers for the coming school year are elected in the spring. One representative from each counciling group is elected to the organization in the fall. The purpose of the organization is to main- tain respect for law and order, sponsor social activities, and to closely bind the students into a well-organized student body. fxfgffkg X FIRST ROW, QL. to RJ: Greg Calame, Jim Yust, Bob Verseman, Charles Evans, Richard I-Ieideman, Jane Tatum, Danny Colpi, Mora Steinbruegge.
