Tlie Masuk High Student Council, a member of the Nation- al Association of Student Councils, is an organization of thirty elected student representatives and a faculty advisor, Mr. Alliert Buday. The student representatives are elected by their classes, and the vice-president of each class, as well as the foreign exchange stu- dent, is also a member. The six members of the executive board, who lead the Student Council, are elected at the end of each year. The purposes of the Student Council are to establish mutual under- standing lietween faculty, students, and administration, to promote school spirit, and to establish social activities in the school. Activi- ties sponsored by the Student Council, such as sock hops after bas- ketball games, Bermuda Day, Town Government Day, and the Holly Hop, help to promote school spirit and to create an under- standing between all members of the school by social interaction. The Student Council is a coordinating body which both leads and serves the school. The support of the student body is needed to make the Student Council effective. The only legal time to be caught wearing bermudas in school — Bermuda Day.

Making the world a little smaller . . . The purpose of the American Field Service is to create greater understanding between the world’s peoples by bringing foreign students to the United States to live and study for a year. This year’s exchange student is Rodney Stavert from Southsea, England. Rodney has easily fit in with American life, and is especially active in school functions. We hope that Rodney will bring back with him to England a good impression of the United States. The Americans Abroad is an outgrowth of the A.F.S. program, formed by the returnees of the program who wanted to give U.S. students the same opportunity to live and study in foreign countries. John D’Ostillio and Karen Johnson have been chosen as candidates for the Americans Abroad program this year. The A.F.S members for 1966 are D. Dake (pres.), W. Tramposch (v. pres.), J. Cooper (sec.), E. Hauenstein (tres.), R. Stavert (exchange student), J. Fieberts. G. Duefrene. M. Billig. R. Swasey, R. Atkinson. J. Rus- sell, P. Campbell. M. Desmond, B. Gerathy, B. Gus- taitis, K.
