The purpose of the Council is to budget all student affairs, approve of any student flights and discuss matters of general concern to the student body. An innovation was the season ticket plan in which a student activity ticket of 33.25 was devised to be paid in weekly installments of lOc.

Mr. Fullam Mr. Meredith Mr. Dieringer Buokleu School Board HE BUCKLEY school district is controlled by a board of three directors elected by the people, one director being elected each year. The district requires men of extraordinary ability to conduct the affairs of its schools in a successful manner with the many and varied problems which must be met. These problems have been both numerous and difficult during the past few years and the district has been fortunate in its choice of men to meet them. Mr. james Fullam is the chairman of the board and is now serving his eleventh year as a member. His long experience is invaluable to the board in its deliberations on its many problems. His re-election to the board for four consecutive terms in- dicates the efficiency of his service and the confidence the people have in him. Mr. W. H. Merideth is the clerk of the district and is serving his first term on the board. He was elected to membership on the board at one of the most critical times in the history of the schools of the state. He has sacrificed time and personal interests to aid in bringing the schools to the strongest position they have known for many years. He stands consistently for those measures which will maintain and im- prove the efficiency of the school and its service. Mr. Bernard Dieringer is serving his second term as a member of the board, having been first elected for a term of one year and re-elected for a term of three years. Mr. Dieringer's sound judgment is invaluable to the board and the appreciation of the people is evidenced by their continued confidence in him as their representative. MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD As chairman of the Buckley school board in their behalf I wish to take this opportunity to mention and express appreciation for the wonderful spirit and cooper- ation we have encountered in our efforts to improve and upbuild our school system. For the past three years the school board has labored under difficult financial cir- cumstances. Through the splendid cooperation of the faculty, the parents, the tax- payers, and the students we have maintained the efficiency of our schools and have emerged from a serious condition of debt to a net cash basis. We especially wish to thank our superintendent, Mr. Daniel, for without his loyal support and cooperation this grand achievement could not have been attained. Nor can too much credit be given Mr. Phillips, Miss Partlon, Mr. Van Cruyningen, the faculty, the students, and the patrons for the part they have played in developing a school system second to none and of which the district may well be proud. fm JAMES FULLAM.
