The need for such a revision became evident when certain school government problems arose recently upon which the Constitution was silent. Upon looking further into the interior, other, alarming discrepancies were found which were potentially confusing, the proponents claim. OVERALL REVISION The first major overall revision was drafted by Larry Christensen and was submitted to the BY High administration' on Jan. 4. Official revision will be made by them, after which, final wording problems will be resolved by the sponsors. The finished product will be presented to the studentbody in displays and through other media. The revised version is known as Thirteen Articles for Good Student Government. According to a statement by the sponsors, The newer document is entirely more complete than the older version. The older document, for instance, gave absolutely no purpose to the Executive Commit- tee Council, which it formed, and two clauses nulified each other in giving power to the School Council. There were no provisions for registration, impeachment, or for filling offices vacated by these means. The overall language is confusing and misleading. So much necessary material was left out that it was not sufficient to govern a school or school council at the present time. LEGAL OFFICER In the newer version the student body office of Attorney General has been established. He, according to an entirely new and complete system of checks and balances, can veto any unconstitutional action by the school council, subject to older document, self out. cancelling it- TO BE AVAILABLE Hopefully, copies other than display copies will be availaule to students along with an explanation of changed parts. Because of the complexity of the revised document, the proposal for change will likely come through number 3 of this school which states, Any member of the school has the right to appear before the School Council and voice any complaints or opinions that he feels need immediate attention. By-La- w IN STUDENT HANDS The administration - revised document will be presented then to facilitate getting the proposal into the hands of all of the students as rapidly as possible. Candidates for the honor are Mike Bullock, Jon Hatch, Bill Miller, Steve Rich, and Ken Smith. Voting will take place today, and the winner win be announced at the assembly. A cloudy false ceiling and a truly Misty evening is planned, reveals Colleen Kimball, president and head of the dance committee.
