THIRD ROW: David Savage Those at the helm of the student body government deserve much credit for the excellent work, they, as the executive committee, have accomplished. With David Savage at the wheel, as president, the Associated Student Body has had an extremely successful year. The season ticket, which covered all home athletic games and student body activities, was launched by the com- mittee. The season ticket provided subscription to the Tyro Weekly paper With the usual goal of one thousand easily reached. Two new .buildings, a commerce building and a cafeteria, were started in order to improve the over-crowded condition of the school. The cafeteria, building is to be used also for a social hall and a study room. An amendment was added to the Constitution. Under this new article there were fifteen members installed in the executive committee of which only four were elected by the student body. The others were representatives of the leading clubs and organizations in this school. The new amendment was written by Lincoln E. Moses, vice president of the student body last year, and revised by E. C. Cline. - A part time Vocational Educational program was introduced and super- Vlsed by Joseph M. Sharp. Complying with this new plan, students attend classes far one-half day and are employed in a down town store or office for the remainder of the day. . For the first time in many years, a senior girl, Ioetta Taylor, ran for the office of pre81dent but was defeated by Gordon Kaylor. A majority desire for a boy president was indicated when a run off election was held in favor of Gordon Kaylor, - - ,. 4 . . ,. H61
