Why did you decide to run for
this particular office?
The office of Treasurer in
volves the monetary end of
Grant High School business. As
Assistant Treasurer I would not
only be given a chance to con-
tribute, but would be able to
learn how money is earned and
spent in an organization of this
size and type of Grant. This is
why I chose to run for this of
fice.

school function and Assistant
Treasurer was one in which I
could do well. I also wanted to
be better informed on school pol
icy and procedure.
—Barry Emard
I enjoy being an active mem
ber of the student body. The of
fice of Assistant Treasurer offers
a chance to work with other stu
dents, handle money responsibili
ties, and learn about student
government.
—Patti West
Another term of office has
passed and the proposed system
of poll Voting has not been in
vestigated by either the Execu
tive or the General councils.
Time ras run out on another ad
ministration.
A detailed outline of proce
dures, locatons, and restrictions
necessary to make poll voting
effective was published in the
January 13, 1967 edition of the
Grantonian.
For all responsible purposes
this public information has been
left on the shelf to gather dust
beside the promised yet untried
campaign pledges and many
time-consuming suggestions.
The shelves ought to be dust
ed, and the ideas and suggestions
made to past councils revived.
Students may revive their inter
est in student government if
they feel that their ideas would
be considered if proposed.

SUMMER TERM
How do you plan to alleviate
the problems that are slowing
the General Council down?
Through encouraging and pro
moting more participation with
decisive and controversial bills,
we will attract qew people with,
hopefully, new ideas. This will
alleviate the problem of repre
sentative inactivity. As has been
shown in the past, students and
representatives come and par
ticipate when controversial mat
ters are being debated.

What do you consider the most important job of a G.L. President?
To make sure that all girls
have a chance to participate in
Girls’ League through the vari
ous projects and activities and to
bring in and accept new ideas
for the benefit of Girls’ League.

it’s important to be able to co
ordinate various committees, so
that they work as teams. Yearly
activities need to be run smooth

siastic girls.

If elected Girls’ League Secre
tary, I will work closely with the
President in getting new ideas
for new activities that will in
terest all the girls. The tradi
tional Big and Little Sister Party
will be great, outside activities
plentiful, and Girls’ League
Week will be top on the list.
—Olga Honchariw
If elected I would try to em
phasize how much fun Girls’
League is and can be. I would
try to continue the fine tradition
of past secretaries of doing an
efficient job by contributing
some new and interesting ideas
and getting more girls involved
in Girls’ League activities.
—Jean Yakymi
I would encourage the council
to bring up more constructive
legislation. This would be legis
lation which would help the
school and the surrounding com
munity. I would encourage the
council to discuss student com
plaints on present school prob
lems. I would try to discourage
the council from discussing top
ics which would not effectively
help the student body of Grant
high school. —David Hytowitz
Reason suggested
for poor turnout
of fall candidates
With the upcoming spring
elections for next fall’s student
body officers, we take this time
to note that only twenty-two stu
dents are running for nine exec
utive council posts.
Why are so few running for
offices that represent the entire
student body of over 2800? Is it
because the elections have be
come a popularity contest with
only a select few destined to win,
thus eliminating other competi
tion? Or is it because the Grant
constitution sets up qualifica
tions that few students can meet?
There are points for both sides
of contention on qualifications
for student body offices. Some
say that if a person wants to run
for an office badly enough that
they will strive to attain the
grade point average and unblem
ished school record desired in
candidates.
Maybe one of these reasons
are why so few ran this timé.
Perhaps it’s simply disinterest.
