At last it has come to Tilden! This September, through the efforts of Mrs. Gentleman, former social studies teacher at Tilden, a program of extended student participation in school govern- ment was inaugurated in the form of a Student Council. Begun with the idea of bringing all the organizations in the school under one head, the Council has the support of every loyal Tildenite, student, and teacher. Since Mrs. Gentleman's transfer in Ianuary, Mr. Fewkes, physical educa- tion instructor, has taken over the duties of spon- sor. Aiding Mr. Fewkes in the all-important job of sponsoring the Student Council are Miss Murphy and Mr. Gammertsfelder. members of Tilden's faculty. Objectives of the organization are multiple. It aims to familiarize the students with the school's problems and to teach them how to handle these problems to develop student leaders, to orientate new students by contact with the upper-classmen to provide practical experience in the use of the tools of democracy, and finally to drive home the realization that every student and teacher has an important part in the building a better Tilden. All these objectives are accomplished by bringing about a closer co-operation among all the organ- izations in the school. The council is patterned somewhat after our national government. Each division elects a re- liable delegate to attend the bi-weekly meetings Olson, Kneen. Biedermann, Angus. Wickman, Strauf, Hesse. Castleberry. Kroc, Roman, Cundiff, Magnuson, Slier, Lurie, Ioneliunas. Dill. Moy, Wolniak, LaFlame, Sobczak, Markus, Halverson, Mossman, Stronaek. Catuara. Bioudo, Powers, Mihleder, Weiss. Otto. Gygantou.
