-rf - vm. Student Council In the summer of l9fl9 a number of pupils trom each feeder-school met to establish a temporary student association. This original organization has evolved into the present Student Council. According to its constitution, the purpose of the Student Council is . . . through democratic stu- dent government to further provide for and promote student participation in all affairs concerning school and community and to acquire experience and efficiency in the practice of democracy. In addition to this, the Student Council has taken on the burdens of sponsoring nearly all extra-curricular activities in the school and purchasing many of the extras that are needed around the school, but which are not purchased by the county. The latter is accomplished through participation in the nation-wide Curtis Magazine Drive, which last year netted the school a profit of over 5H52,000.00, and the sale of Activity Cards to the student body. The Activity Caro supports the school teams, dramatic productions, dances and the club program. Among the many projects undertaken by the Student Council have been the purchases of the stage cyclorama, audi- torium curtains, stage curtain and the electric scoreboard.

Student Court I i The Student Court, established in 1950, serves as the judiciary branch of the Student Council. The court is governed by its own constitution and is com- prised of six student judges who are representatives of each class, and a faculty adviser. Cases involving major or minor infrac ud es C Schifflett A Filbey T . . . . ' J s 2 - YJ- - f - tions of school rules as affirmed in the Code of Ethics are Fitzhugh fchief judgey, G. Vlases, B. tried, and punishments are meted out according to the sever- ity of the violation. Offenses range from skipping steps or running in the halls, to defacing school property and smoking. Punishments include essays, cafeteria duty, loss of privileges, and recommended sus- pension. The court is at present a necessary and vital department of the school, but it is hoped that some day there will be no need for it, and consequently, it may be dissolved. gl Metzger, Mr. Clarence Hoddinott fsponsorj. Detention This class session is generally known as the eighth period. Enrollment var- ies but is at its highest peak immediately following the early afternoon games played away from school. QOh, that game at Towsonlj The outward appearance of detention makes it nothing but a study. Its true value is felt, however, while trudging wearily home after missing the last school bus. Our loyal law- breakers pay their debt to society aft- er the last bell. f V1 ,U GA I V uf wi B , 5 'MW 1 3-
