STUDENT COUNCIL As the year draws to a close, another Student Council prepares to close its books, and pass into memory. The Council of T936-37 leaves behind a record of achievements and improvements in student self-government which equals that of many past Councils, and sets an example for future ruling bodies. Adhering to the principle of its immediate predecessor that democratic government in a school should be one of leadership and logic rather than one of fear and punishment, this year's Council has tried to maintain discipline, to arbitrate fairly in all matters within its jurisdiction, and to instill respect in the students for the leaders they chose to represent them. The Council feels that it has been successful in these attempts. Several innovations were introduced this year in student government at l.atin, of which the most important were the creation ofa junior Council, and the adoption of an amendment to the Constitution. This amendment provides that hereafter a vote shall be tal4en by the members of the Council at the end of each school year to determine whether or not the Sophomore member shall retain his position, or whether he shall have to be elected again by his class-mates the following year. The purpose of this amendment was to lessen the possibility of the loss ofthe Sopho- more's training and experience by his non-re-election. The junior Council, com- posed of representatives from Classes Three, Four, Five, and Six, was created to give the younger students first-hand experience in student government, and to acquaint them with its worlcings and problems. ln closing, we wish to extend our congratulations to Charles Ford, Senior prefect, and his Council for the intelligent, sympathetic, and honorable way in which they conducted student government at Latin during T936-37. .HU
