Under the new methods, our elections were run like national contests. Persons wishing to run took out nomination peti- tions and collected titty signatures. They were then eligible to campaign for the primaries. If chosen in the primaries, the candidate then began to campaign once more. On a set day, at polling places administered by the student council, the final elections were held. The winners were named class officers. Another example of democracy in action was the student council itself. Elected representatives from classes, clubs and home rooms met and discuss' d the problems of the student body.

CONSULTATION is very helpful to many seniors who are uncertain as to their future. Here Miss Sunstrom aids Richard Rolkoslly. Where should I go to college? What subiects should I take? If these questions taxed your mind during the year, chances are you did not take ad- vantage of the excellent guidance program which existed. Mr. Marlon Batterman, in his position as Dean of Boys, helped many young men to decide what plans they will make for the future and what they can do about them now. Miss Alice Sunstrorn, as Dean of Girls, helped many girls with their problems. She also interviewed every senior and discussed his future plans with him. For those who wished to speak to representatives from the various schools of higher education through- out the state, there was college and career night. At this time, delegates from many nursing schools, liberal arts colleges, and state teachers' colleges spoke with those students interested in attending the school they were representing. Scholarships, courses offered, and housing facilities were explained and questions were answered. Every Thursday, another phase of the guidance program was executed as home room teachers had individual conferences with the members of their home rooms to solve any problems which might arise and to plan the courses which will be taken in fu- ture years. We Are Guided Towards The Future INDIVIDUAL ATTENTION which is essential in planning for the future is given to Tom Pfaffl by Mr. Batterman.
