Wednesday is a happy day for students when alternates distribute the Hdvocates. Taking absence slips to the office is a daily task of both representatives and alternates. Wizany X awe Hn important branch of the student govern- ment is the home room representatives and al- ternate body. Consisting of the elected repre- sentatives of each home room in the school, this group keeps in close contact with the stu- dents and faculty. Numerous important duties are performed throughout the school by the representatives and alternates. During this year's Red Cross drive a considerable sum of money was col- lected for the suffering people of the World. Student and faculty contributions for the bronze plaque which commemorates the Lin- coln high war dead in World War ll, were also taken by the representatives. Responsibility for producing an enjoyable l-ligh Spot is a heavy one, and the alternates and representatives work together on the many committees, Ftnother committee on which HOME ROOM HLTERNHTES Fifth How: Mosher, Eno, Qmen, Schwartzzrnan, Chuman, C. lohnson, Stoddart, Mueller, Moore, McLartd Fourth Row: Barnard, Peterson, Leinbergrer, Hoy, Dugan, Cox, Powell, Day, Rasmussen, Burden, Nelson Third Row: Clark, Hamilton, l-leermann, McCormack, Hicks, Steven, Scott, Hnderson, Schacht, Kehlrng, Marsoli Second How: Qndrews, Fletcher, Colhapp, Walt, Klein, Kimball, Peters, Yos, Leadley, B lohnson First Row: Burgess, Wagey, Wilson, Bradden, McKay, Unland, Mann, Moslander, Egbert, Hedke, Bell L -- ,L ,

We tlze eop e Government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth. Hbraham Lincoln's noble words have proved their wisdom. Those countries under the rule of one have too often failed, govern- ments in which the people take an active part rise in their stead. So in Lincoln high school, represented by the student council, the student body has a voice in the policies and activities of the school. The council is composed of twenty students gtwelve seniors, six juniors and two sopho- mores. Prospective members of the law making body file preliminary petitions, then proceed to the primary and final elections. The latter faithfully imitates city elections. Thus members of the council are decided upon fairly by the pupils. Services rendered by the council are many. This year, in addition to the maintenance of activity records, and producing loy Night, Lin- coln high's popular talent show, the council has again published the Red and Black hand- book. Using the question-box method as a medium, the council and student body have worked together, showing the spirit of cooperation, which is the basis of sound judgment.
