EXECUTIVE fi' Student Council 9 I 7 Lawrence Clark Sue Ogden Fl0Yd WUTT Rachel Peck t Our Officers FIRST SEMESTER-The wisdom of a group of people is well demonstrated by their choice of leaders. Chrisman, consequently, points with pride to its student body officers of this year. The duties of the president are numerous and varied. He must help to plan the assem- bly programs, make announcements, and take charge of the assemblies. To keep an ac- curate record of all programs is the duty of the secretary, and the editor-in-chief of the Envoy works many long, hard hours putting out a paper which will please. The officers of the first semester were chosen only after an extensive campaign was staged to point out the qualities possessed by all of the candidates which would quality them to fulfill these duties. Likable, hard-working Lawrence Clark was chosen as president and the excellent leadership he showed justified the public vote. Little Sue Ogden, everybody's friend, made a charming and efficient secretary. The Envoy, with Marilyn Mcliim as edi- tor, contained much news and lively gossip. SECOND SEMESTER-The new Student Body Council went into effect at the beginning of the second semester. Besides the three offices already existing, two new ones were created which were filled for the first time. The new offices were vice president and parlia- mentarian. ' The school's wit was used to best advantage previous to the election, and many clever publicity stunts won the public's attention for the various candidates. On the Friday of elec- tion the customary assembly was held in the Memorial Building. The campaign managers gave each candidate his final build up. The outcome of the balloting that afternoon showed that capable Floyd Warr had won his battle for president, the vice presidency was filled by the energetic Bruce Coffin, a full measure of ability was chosen for secretary-Rachel Peck. For parliamentarian the popular voice declared Virgil Owens, and to secure an Envoy which would continue its high quality in news and English, I. R. French was chosen as editor. The efficient leadership of these officers during the first half-year of the Council, started our new system of student government out in a way that gives promise of much accomplish- ment and a rosy future. 8 --:,::'f1i 1-f A . - .
