Competitors Selected For UIL
Two Of Three Proposals
Win Votes For Approval
BY JOANN TIERNEY
Lacking only about 80 votes to
achieve the required two-thirds
majority, the final section of the
proposed constitutional amend-
ment, naming class cheerleaders as
non-voting members of the All-
School Council, failed to pass. •
SECTION A, raising the grade
requirements, and Section D, de-
tailing a new method of electing a
boy and girl cheerleader if inter-
est warrants, passed. As the con-
stitution now reads, the cheerlead-
ers are not officially members of
the Council. The remainder of
this year, the policy of their at-
tending meetings without voting
will continue.
Mr. Knox Williams, Student
Council advisor, points out that an-
other movement to present the
second alternative, making them
voting members, may origiinate in
the Council. However, there was
no discussion of this at Monday’s
meeting.
INSTEAD debate centered around
two other controversies; the prob-
lem of inadequate representation
and the selection and reimburse-
ment of Rough Riders.
Junior Eldon Reynolds comment-
ed, “I was approached with the
suggestion that class vicerpresi-
dents be abolished. The student
felt the present system was not an
adequate means of representation.”
FOR INSTANCE, in the senior
class of 17 homerooms, the two
class officers are in one homeroom,
while two other homerooms host
five vice-presidents. Nine senior
homerooms have no vice-president
and, therefore, no direct line of
communication with the Council.
Further discussion was postponed
until some concrete plans could be
presented.
The Council then turned to the
problems revolving around the
Rough Riders. The group voted to
reimburse the Rough Rider taking
his car to out-of-town games 8
cents per mile. Next week the
Council will discuss methods for
their election.
Students have been selected to

sions of Interscholastic League
