Henry Boost Our Advertisers They Boost Us VOLUME XI GREENSBORO HIGH SCHOOL, OCTOBER 2, 1931 Governing Body Inaugurated; House of Representatives Holds Its First Meeting September 23 The newly organized House of Rep resentatives held its first meeting on September 23 in the Glee ehib room at the regular ehapel period. Jack Nowlin, president of the student body, presided, and first conducted an elec tion of orticers. Bill Venning and Mar garet Knight were nominated for the side and Phyllis Hagedorn were nomi- ofiice of chairman, and Martha Biirn- nees for secretary. Bill ^’enning and Martha Burnsides were elected. Then the president and the two faculty ad visers, Miss Sara Lesley and Miss Nora Chaffin, spoke to the representatives, welcoming them and explaining the purpose and the duties of the organi zation. Althougli the Student Council has been functioning for some time at G. H. S., the members have known their classmates and their opinions in a general way only. The need of a more direct representation of the stu dent body therefore, was felt. The idea of a House of Representatives was conceived and presented for the approval of the student body, which voted for it unanimously. The first duty of the representatives, as pointed out by I'resideut Nowlin, was to work up some enthusiasm for the football games; if possible, to have the entire student body and the fac ulty present to cheer the team, A discussion of the activity cards was then held. For the satisfaction of all present, the number of were counted and the results were found to be less than 500, It was de cided to give the students one more chance and if the outcome was more satisfactory the activity cards would be put on sale. It was thought that the number would come nearer that required if each member would talk to his session room aod urge his class mates to put in their votes for the activity cards, which prov-ed their worth last year. The membership of the House of Representatives consists of represen tatives from every session room and every charter organization in the high school. The following students were chosen as representatives of their ses sion rooms: 1. Ruth Couch, 2. Charles Banks, 4. Lois Russell, 5. M’ayland Fickling, G. Owen Cooke, 7. Virginia Carter, 10.
