THERE'S A RULE ABOUT IT 4:5 fm' K, 3 .13 -.gem H I SENATE FRONT ROW: Willis. Admiral. tChairmcml Solow. SECOND ROW: Lewis. Krikoricm, Dobbins, Pelzer. Not in picture: Carole Frascadore The Senate, legislative power of Western, is composed of one repre- sentative from each group. This term, the foreman of our law-making body is Evelyn Admiral, who conducts the Senate meetings, sets forth new issues, and appoints committees. When the foreman is absent, Gerald Smith, vice-foreman, presides at the Senate. Taking minutes at the round-ups, which are held every third Friday, is the difficult task efficiently being done by the secretary, Carole Frascadore. If a matter requiring arbitration occurs, Dr. Mabel Haller, faculty advisor, is called in as a mediator. The functions of the Senate are manifold, and its powers include appropriating money for C. A. purposes, regulating, governing, approv- ing all by-laws, and granting charters to clubs and other school func- tions. All complaints or suggestions made in the group rooms are brought before the Senate for further discussions and consideration. These issues are discussed, decisions are made, and, when necessary, amendments are added to the school constitution. During the spring season and the Christmas season, the Senate solicits voluntary contributions from the student body. The funds re- ceived are given to organizations such as the Red Cross, Red Feather, and March of Dimes. The Christmas donations are given to children's hospitals and children's organizations. The Senate is divided into fourteen committees Working for the improvement of Western. They are: Activities, Attendance, Boys' Lava- tory, Boys' Lunchroom, Budget, Entertainment, Girls' Lavatory, Girls' Lunchroom, PTC, Safety, Servicemen's, Social Service, Student Council, and Ushers. The Senate of W. P. H. S. is a moving force which exists for the benefit of its student body. Its honesty and intelligence in handling Student affairs have branded it as an indispensable part of Western. gs 0 6. 3 ,I f l , t W Vj ' J 2 it nf xlitfl, 'I It.',, all 1 I ang., X iv?- .. --1-rf .. 59 tg fl, t .
