GOVERNMENT... STUDENT SENATE 1948 The Student Senate is the highest student governing body on the campus, and is directly responsible to the student body for the con- ducting of its affairs and the disposition of its funds. The panel is presided over by the presi- dent of the student body, who is elected by popular vote in the spring elections. The senators are elected by the classes in their respective meetings. The group is responsible for our annual, our school paper, our student elections, and just about anything that comes under the head of Howard Activities. This is one organization in which there is all work and no play and every member of this highest honored group on the campus deserves a pat on the back for a job well done. Left to tiit ltt, seated: Neil Shepherd, h. T. Robertson, Joyce Griffin, James Merk, Genie Rae S locum, Stanley Howell Standing: James Hall, Fl oyd Yarbrough, Charles Martin, Davis O ' Kelley, James Stivender, Earl Brown, adi Schultz

A. CALVIN FORRESTER, President STUDENT The president of the student body at I Inward this year was a man known to all for his never-ending energy, Calvin Forrester. After a very hotly contested run-off between Calvin and Wade Schultz, in which Calvin emerged the winner by a very few votes, our president went righl to work to prove that we had elected the right man. Some of his deeds fur the year include the elaborate decorations for Navy Day, the organization of the nucleus of a hand for Howard, and the organization of a pep squad to accompany our basketball team on all their road games. There are many more too numerous to mention. We are very proud of our student body presi- dent, Calvin Forrester. STUDENT BODY OFFICERS The officers of the student body were one short this year due to the fact that the duly elected treasurer. Ilennie Jean Jones, assumed the duties of a married woman after the spring elections and left school. James Merk and (ienie Rae Slocum have given Calvin Forrester excellent assistance in his job and the entire student body is deeply grateful to them for a job well done. Left to Right: James Merk. Vice-President; Genie Rae Slocum, Secretary; A. Calvin Forrester. President

E. M. FORD, IK. Editor ].. T. ROBERTSON . Issistant Editor II. P. ( PAT) P vTTON Business Manager VL ENTRE NDUS Webster ' s Collegiate Dictionary defines annual as: 1. Returning or occurring every year. We of the staff believe that a student should receive his or her copy of the year ' s annual in the spring of that particular year. By giving you the 1948 edition of the Entre Nous this spring, the succeeding editor should be relieved of what- ever printing difficulties result from overlapping late editions. We hope we have sel a precedent for future dates of edition. 2. Pertaining to the year. You students and organizations certainly made this a lively year at Howard. The photographer and editors became weary at times following you hither and yon in an attempt to record your activities for posterity, hut it was good to know you had that intangible thing called school spirit. It was impossible to record events beyond Christmas. 11)4?, and still meet the printing schedule. For nexl year ' s editor, we did make pictures of varii us events which shall be included in his or her edition. You might refer to us as a scape-goat. 3. Lasting only one year. Add our hook to the other records of college life you ' ve accumulated. The staff will he greatly repaid if you prove Mr. Webster wrong by making our edi- tion a life-long, appreciated pictorial.
