She gives a coy smile, A wink; He answers her flirt With love; A kiss; timid vows Of hope. Then comes a cold look, A word Gall tipped, a closed door, A sigh As soft as worn string That parts, And life again black And bare. — Theodore Troy Will Student Government Live? By Harold Hamilton Now that the officers of our student government have been elected in the persons of William Breeding, presi dent, and Marlene Dobbs, secretary; and all of the praising of their virtues and accomplishments by the orators is over, the tendency now, I suspect, will be a loss of interest among the students. 1 hope that an active interest in the student government will continue and that the need for backing the organization wholeheartedly will not be overlooked. It is for us, the students, whether we are members of the People’s Party or Liberal Party, to insist that the Platform on which the party won be carried out. If those elected do not carry out their promises, some ex planation is due those who elected them. We cannot afford to tolerate any laxity in the student government. I propose that there be an amend ment to the constitution of the Stu dent Council providing for the im peachment of the officers and repre sentatives if they are found derelict in their duties. If such must be done, I suggest that until another election time a temporary student council — composed of the president of each class, represent the student body. I propose that alleged inefficiency, which would lead to impeachment, be determined by a committee ap pointed by the respective classes and composed of one member of each class. The duty of this committee, as has been suggested, should be only to investigate the charges against the student council administration when there appears to be evidence that the council is not functioning properly, and report its findings to the student body. All of this, as I see it. is to make certain that student govern ment succeeds.
