ll The official duty of the Student Senate is to share with the administration the responsibilities of student problems and to act as an intermediary between the administration and the student body. This year, with Ronny Kledzik as president, Eleanor Addison and Carol Owens as secretaries for one semester each, the Senate has undertaken many other activities. A few of them are competitive sports between the Freshman and Sophomore classes, the annual open-house for the surrounding high schools, sports contests between the faculty and students, and the election of class officers. Senators are elected each semester by the student body. LEADERS LEAVE IT TO THEM! Meeting together to plan one of their more popular duties, the selecting of Hall of Fame titles, the Student Senate does an efficient job just as in other chores. Serving on the governing body are, clockwise, Anne Hackney, Kathy Klak, Eleanor Addison, Jimmy Singletary, Ronny Kledzik, president, John Hightower, Tommy Hubbard and Carol Owens, secretary. Absent from picture are Skippy Hull and G. W. Whitehurst, sponsor. I Most freshmen, at sometime during their stay behind the Division walls, find themselves in contact with the chemistry department. It is therefore quite fitting that the head of this department, Mr. C. S. Sherwood, should be their class sponsor. Elected by the class to aid him in governing class policies were Mike Caprio, president; George Sarantis, vice-president; Jimmy Smith, class treasurer; and Yolanda Grant, secretary. This committee has charge of the balloting in subsequent freshmen elections, organizes freshmen parties, such as the farewell dance in honor of the departing sophomores, and presides over freshmen convocations. FOUR DIFFERENT POINTS OF VIEW. The Freshman class officers show their individuality in this picture as their attention could not be attracted at any one focal point. What are Jimmy Smith, treasurer; Yolanda Grant, secretary; Mike Caprio, president; and George Sarantis, vice-president, contemplating? I A

NO CASES TODAY! Photographer Bob Porter takes a respite from snapping pictures for the POW-WOW to appear with fellow Honor Council members, also resting from their duties. They are left to right: First row, Barbara Barker, Ann Uzzell, Margaret Ann Felton; Second row, Richard Absalom, Skippy Hull, Lois Shuey; Third row, George Sarantis, A1 Daw, Bob Porter. “Innocent until proven guilty,”could easily be the motto of the Honor Council. Having existed since the founding of the Norfolk Division in 1930, the Honor Code is held sacred by every student. Its essence lies in individual responsibility on the part of each student. The Honor Council is an educational and judiciary body and does not exercise police powers. Since the student body assumes the responsibility for the operation of the Honor Code the college does not practice supervision of examinations by proctors. Members of the Honor Council are elected for a term of one year by the student body. NO MAN SHORTAGE HERE ! With Carlotta Duncan, secretary, missing from the picture, it looks as if the boys dominate positions in the school. The Brave males are George Georgallis, vice-president; Fong Ark, treasurer; and Bob Sheetz, president. STUDENT The Sophomore Class is headed by four students who are elected by their fellow classmates at the beginning of the school year. They are under the guidance of Miss Virginia Lee Speer, member of the Science Department. These officers. Bob Sheetz, president; George Georgeallis, vice-president; Fong Ark, treasurer; and Carlotta Duncan, secretary; see to it that their class has a successful year. The first major project was a dance of welcome to the incoming students. This affair took place in September and is still remembered by all who attended it. These officers and their class help to make all new students feel that the Norfolk Division is a swell place.

ACTIVITIES WHAT’S NEW? As Robert Owens, Anne Hackney and Henderson Daniels rush through the hall of the Administration Building, they pause long enough to read the latest student notices. THAT COURSE IN BUD’S! Buddy Leatherwood, Nick Parker, George Bancroft dring soft drinks during their free hour while Howard Hubbard waits to get his from Bessie. Johnny Gray is more interested in getting supplies for his next class. Discussing school gossip are George Hylton, John Kingston and others. HAPPY IN THEIR WORK. Mary West Paul, assorts the incoming mail, while Virginia Sneed and Louise Bethea, head of the library, check the card catalogues and files. Miss Paul is in charge of the reference rooms upstairs and her co-workers handle the downstairs department. HOKI HOKI!
