Evening meetings of the Forum were attended hy fifty- eight juniors and seniors who met biweekly in the school library. To become eligible for the Forum, a student must have attended a majority of the discussion group meetings. The discussion groups are preliminary training organizations formed to help prepare students for the Forum. The Forum has several purposes: to help members express themselves more clearly and forcefully, to promote con- structive thinking on the student,s part: and to allow thc students to discuss among themselves the problems and af- fairs which affect the world, the nation, and our city. Outstanding members of the Forum were initiated into the Forum Honor Group: this group, composed of twenty- two members, led the discussions for both the Forum and the discussion group meetings and graded the discussion group members on their performance in the attempt to gain future admittance to the parent organization. Members of the honor group received awards at the end of the year. Officers of the Forum were as follows: Charles Hubler, president: Donna Allen, vice-president, Trudy Haley, secre- tary, and Ianice Metz, treasurer. Ray Hinshaw is the spon- sor of this organization, and he is assisted by Ronald Abrell.

Its pur- pose is best stated in the preamble of the Student Councills constitution: 'KTO establish a medium of association and cooperation with the principal and the faculty on school matters, to encourage and promote a finer school spirit, to create respect and ambition for high scholastic attain- ment, and to further the general Welfare of this high school. The Council is composed of the elected home room repre- sentatives, the three class presidents, and the editor of the Squib. The officers for 1960-61 were as follows: Steve Keith, president, Don Thompson, vice-president, Georgiann Mar- tin, corresponding secretary, Faye Cole, recording secretary, Trudy Haley, treasurer, and Barbara Benefiel, parliamen- tarian. Rita Fern Comstock and Frank Barnes were the faculty advisors. Student Council accomplished many things in the 1960-61 academic year. It sold school directories, managed the class elections, endeavored to improve scholarship, and sponsored many social events, one of which was the Fall WVind-Up Dance. Students should appreciate the Work done by the Student Council because it is through this organization that pupils can participate in the governing of Shelbyville High School. 16 Steve Keith, president, addresses members of the Student Council and its sponsor, Mrs. Comstock.
