Council this term has achieved fame as one of the most active legisla- tures that has ever existed in Townsend Harris Hall. Guided by the capable administra- tion of its president, Walter Kaufman, the council has done work of much importance and distinction. Several new budgets were passed and quite a few service pins and school letters were awarded, class tournaments were carried out with precision. A new tournament was instituted in the form of a swimming contest between the different classes, all of whom entered their teams in the meet. Some long needed measures were adopted such as the bill for the re-organization of the club council, which was the result of the undiscouraged persistency of the Club Delegates. To distinguish their administration, the council made several long due amendments to the Constitution. All in all, the men have worked to the best of their ability to promote the general welfare and to guide our school in both inter-class and inter-scholastic events of this term. The members of the council, to whom Townsend Harris owes its gratitude and praise for so ably discharging its duties, are: GENERAL ORGANIZATION Preridefzf .........,..,...,..,.,.,................................. .,.........,..

It is a necessary and vital Part of our school, since in Harris, like in all other institu- tions of education, there are some students who insist upon violating constructive regulations. The promotion of orderly conduct on the stairs during the seven minutes recess between hours, the care of the lockers both on the concourse floor and in the basement during lunch hour, and the maintenance of discipline at assemblies, are some of the outstanding duties of this organization. The members of the Traffic Department are carefully selected and promoted in due time. The officers are not elected by the members of the squad, but are chosen for long and meritorious service by their superiors, with the consent, of Dr. Richter, the faculty advisor. As a result of this method only the most capable and the most ex- perienced students are chosen oHicers. No reward or token of gratitude is sufficient to offset the conscientious and suc- cessful work performed by the members of the squad, headed by Victor Ganz, the chief, and Arthur Eckstein, the recorder. Inevitably working in the interests of the department, Dr. Richter must be commended for his excellent advice to the officers. The Traffic Department has a magnificent and elaborate system of checking, which was instituted by Israel Feintuch and Samuel Ellman, former chiefs. The squad as a whole is composed of three companies, each supervised by a captain, who is responsible to the chief. Subordinate to the captain are two lieutenants, each of whom direct a local platoonil, which is half a company. The ofncers are: Chief ,,,.....,..... .....,.,..... V ICTOR W.
