The first general meeting involves the procedures and rules of the campaign. The mad vveek begins with a flood of floaters. Parades clog the early-morning halls. Candidates strive for attention v ith noise. Enthusiastic supporters may be carried away in the spirit of things.

Insanity subsides for a serious examination of individual qualifications. The primary results take on the voice of the civics committee chairman, Ernie Lindsay. I And then the final news: Hrones, Connell, and Bishop! 25 Then there is that time when the votes are cast, their de- cisions yet unknown. Election ' 59 A mad craze swept the school in the week before spring vacation. Parades, skits, floaters, and noise filled the halls. Campaigns ran wild! And then it happened: the 1960 student coun- cil officers were elected. Campaigning for office is a custom which has developed from the theory of a demo- cratic student government, in an attempt to secure truly representative officers, the mad week was introduced. It was modeled after traditional political campaigns — and has grown with the Student Council until it must now be controlled instead of encouraged. It remains as a period of examination; candi- dates struggle to find interesting and impor- tant issues to make an impact on the voting mind. And many a candidate has won with a dynamic platform. This year ends a period of student govern- ment history, for it is the last in the high school for Mr. L. R. Thrailkill, one of the founders of Shakers council. He has been a major influence through the years since 1926 in nurturing the evolutionary development of the council based on the philosophy of giving the students all the responsibility they can handle. He has seen the council grow in size, and face varying problems from the tossing of students into the then existent campus lake to this year ' s parking situation and he has lent the supporting hand in the establishment of the now complex and vital student fund sys- tem. Although Mr, Klyver has been the Student Council advisor for the past few years, Uncle Bus ' s help and good influence has not ceased. His presence will be missed and his personality long remembered.
