Sophomore Class Cfficers If Marshall was to be an effective and dynamic high school, an effective and dynamic stud- kent government was imperative. The organization of a student government was not something to be rushed: perfection was the Student Body's goal. Marshall's first Student Council was M' ' organized early in the year under the auspicious leadership of Dick Ross, president pro-temp. A feasible constitution was necessary fora good student government. This constitution had to be practical, workable, and yet at the same time, an inspirational tool capable of upholding the high ideals of Iohn Marshall High School. This constitution would have to be workable, not only for one or two years, but for at least fifty years. It had to cover all possible angles ment at Marshall so it had to be set, and provide means for maintaining, the high, lofty stand- ards desired by the students. To meet these exacting demands, a constitution committee of nine students was organized in mid-September. This committee, consisting of Carolyn Stover, Marilyn Lesher, Candy Lawrence, Nick Iones, Stan Koltsch, Mel Griffin, Marilee Dudgeon, Tom Bailey, Barbara Buck and three students from each of the classes, was guided and super - vised by Mr. Proppe, former Marshall vice principal. While the constitution committee diligently labored, the rest of the students concentrated on making money to build a student body fund--at first non-existent. The problem was part- ially solved when we received contributions to our Student Body fund from seven other Portland high schools. Madison, Franklin, Benson and Washington each donated five hundred dollarsy Roosevelt added S200.00. Girls' Polytechnic and Lincoln donated one hundred dollars: and Grant contributed S600 - total S3,000.

ml i 'Stir ,ms -,gif At the first Student Body dance, Kick-off Kapers , September 9, the fund was increased -fp, by seventy dollars. Robert Loop was presented at the Kick-off Kapers as the holder of Mar- shall's number one Student Body card. sf Another important source of income was the tremendously successful Miniature Model T Citi contest drawing. Lipman's in Eastport Plaza arranged to obtain the Model T for which enthus- iastic Marshall students sold tickets. All of the profits, six hundred sixteen dollars and 50 ' ' jf cents , went to the Student Body fund. ', W W'hen the constitution was finished, all Marshallites were impatient to put it into use. The student body quickly approved the constitution for it was a flexible, well-planned and demo- cratic document. Ianuary 24 was a milestone in Marshall history - Marshall students went to r Mi the polls and carefully selected their first executive cabinet. Upon hearing the announcement at the Washington game, Ianuary 24 , the student body quickly pledged their enthusiastic sup- port to the newly elected cabinet. Ierry Betts was elected President: Marilee Dudgeon, vice- president: Kathy Lesher, secretary: Pat Wahl, treasurer and Millie Matthews, activities dirf ector. This initial executive cabinet was presented at an all school assembly when Mr. Proppie,:iff'lE' duly installed the five student body officers. With the student body elections out of the way, the voters set to work February 3to select their first class officers.
