The Big Guns oi the Student Council. Reading leit to right: Hortense Casady, Treasurer, John Mason, President; Ruth Ann Sheldon, Vice-President; Ruth Clark, Secretary. STUDENT CO Inaugurates During a hectic year, the Student Council has rapidly moved toward realization of an admirable goal — the cleansing of student elections, long a disturbing element on the campus. Another noteworthy accomplishment sponsored by the Student Council this year was the convention of student governing bodies of the Big Six Schools. At this convention common prob- lems were discussed. For the benefit of the heads of extra-curricular organizations, the coun- cil sponsored a meeting on parliamentary procedure and the fundamentals of leading meetings. In order to help orientate the freshmen in student ac- tivities, the council conducted several meetings for freshmen on extra-cur- ricular activities. Currently the council is interested in a student activities card which will be a combination ticket to athletic, dramatic, and Student Union activities, and including subscriptions to some of the publications. As the student governing body for all university students, the council approves and controls all student activities and elections. Eight of the thir- ty-three members who comprise the council are seniors who were on it the previous year. From these holdover members, the officers are chosen. [26]
