Spencer, Mr. Dietz, R, Vfalczak, H. Hegedus As this school year comes to a close, your Council marks its seventh year as a member of the National Association of Student Councils. We feel that this in itself is both an honor and an accomplishment but we feel thatwe have acheived an even greater success locally. In these few years we have forged an invaluable chain between the students and the faculty. Each time a student's problem was solved through the combined efforts of this body, another link was fitted into place to make the bond more indestructable. Up until the past few years the Council functioned mainly on the person- al efforts-of its officers and representatives. We are now proud to say that every class has shown an active interest in most of the meetings, being anxious to have their problems discussed and if possible solved. We feel that at last the students have realized the purpose of their voting for a Council each school year. They have found, through personal ex- perience, that the Student Council is merely atool which is to operate to their advantageg but just as any mechanical device human effort must be applied to enable it to function. Here. in 1951. we express our thanks to the many students and faculty members who have helped to make our organization a success. We 3159 hope to encourage the future members and students to work toward our specified B03-1, and make a lasting understanding between the students and faculty. 7

Such neglect could well be more disasterous to all our freedom than the most formidable armed assault on our physical defenses. Where our schools are concerned, no external threat can excuse negligence: no menace can justify a halt to progress., H In meeting the challenge we will face inconvenien- cesg we will see person- al activities curtailed. But we must never waver in our resolution to keep our educational program on the highest level. We will face difficulties, but there must be no let down in the quality of the offering. We must not permit the philosophy of despair to enter our schools, but rather im- bue our boys and girls with faith that by de- veloping their lives to the highest level both intellectual and spirit- ual, they are best serv- ing their country.
