The ig wheels Fall Student Body President Spring Student Body President WILBUR VLASTOS DON BERGSTEDT Participation in student government, in one oflice or another, is a valuable asset to anyone because it not only develops much needed selffconfidence and poise, but also acquaints the student with the well known task of having to make suggestions and decisions which will be acceptable and satisfactory to the majority of those represented. The ability to do this is an important achievement in the world today and should be practiced by everyone. To those of you who are in office now, and to those who some day will be, make the most of that opportunity while you may, so you won't have regrets, when it is too late, that you did not execute your office to the best of your ability. As for the cabinet of the fall of '46, I shall always be grateful to Grace, Leo, Barbara, Bill, Glenny, Harvey, Angie, Ernie, and Margaret for their excellent support and the fine representative ability they have shown, and especially I am grateful to the student body, who made it possible for me to become president, and to all members of the faculty. Our chief accomplishment during our administration was the amendment to the school constitution providing for the selection of the majorettes. Thanks to all. -Wilbur Vlastos. The spring cabinet of 1947 has had definite objectives in mind throughout its term of office. It has tried to increase interest in student government by encouraging active participation in student body affairs. A school paper has again appeared, and successful school dances have been held. The cabinet took part in the' Regional Council Conferences held in Petaluma and San Rafael. It has been apparent for some time that misunderstanding of the student body constitution and its principles, which provide for the governing of student body affairs, has resulted in lack of student interest. Although several amendments have been made to the constitution, the cabinet feels that this is not enough. It will therefore undertake to revise and bring the constitution up to date and feels sure of the hearty cofoperation of the students in this work. WDOD Bel-gstedtl
