Crimson and White YOL. XXIX, ELECTION ISSUE THE MILNE SCHOOL, ALBANY, N. Y. PRESIDENT VICE-PRESIDENT By ARTIE COHEN By KEN BROOKS Progress is not achieved merely through doing a good job and efficiently carrying out one’s alloted duties. True success is gained when an individual expresses his own character and ability in his position, and in doing so produces new ideas and programs to the benefit of all concerned. In our case, those concerned are the stu­ dents of Milne, and the candidate with the qualities to succeed as President of the Senior Student Council is Mike Brodie. Because Mike Brodie is inter­ ested in the workings of your Stu­ dent Council and wants to become fully acquainted with the Presi­ dent’s responsibilities, he took it upon himself to go to every council meeting, even though he is not a present representative. Leadership and experience are the qualifiications that Mike offers for the Presi­ dency. Mike has been President of his class twice, and of his homeroom three times, and is also a member of the National Honor Society. Even though he is a member of the Varsity Basketbal team, Co-Cap­ tain of the Varsity Baseball team, and a member of the M.B.A.A., Mike ha3 been active on various Council Committees such as the Foster Parent Committee, Sports Nite Committee, and the Committee for the Revision of the Constitution, which proves that Mike is eager to spend extra time for the Council. Voting for a candidate with ex­ perience allows you to have a smooth, efficiently run student gov­ ernment. Mike Brodie offers this experience to you. Let experience and leadership be behind the wheel to run your government—vote for Mike Brodie. T is for talented Tim is very tal­ ented and would use this great gift to improve our Senior Stu­ dent Council. EXPERIENCE IS MIKE I is for imperial.

Over his years at Milne, Tim has possesed very clever ideas. We need a person who can produce clever ideas and present variety to Milne’s activities. N is for natural.

You will get the best if you vote for Tim McNally. He is by far the best choice for Presidency of Milne’s Senior Student Council. FRANK MARTIN STEVE PATENT By LOUIS ROVELLI In our modern society, the suc­ cessful leader is the individual who can combine and display a wide array of talents thus becoming the well-rounded citizen. In Frank Martin, we believe we have found such an individual. This is why we present him as our candidate for the Vice-Presidency of the Senior Stu­ dent Council. To justify our contention is not a difficult task. You need only look at Frank’s record. It illustrates the qualifications and devout citizen­ ship which make him a respected member of his community and therefore an excellent candidate for the office he seeks. In his com­ munity Frank is President of his Explorer Scout group. He was the Director of Boy Scout activities at the New York World’s Fair. He is also activity planner in the Fort Orange Council, a large regional Boy Scout Organization. Frank is also an accredited Senior Life Saver. In his church, Frank has served as President of his Youth Fellowship Organization. In school, he has been an active member of the Riding Club and the band. He has also played baseball, is presently on the track team, and has participated in many intramural programs. In ad­ dition, he has been a devoted spec­ tator at a great many school sport­ ing events. Earlier this year, he served as an Alumni Ball Commit­ tee Chairman. Scholastically, Frank has been a solid student maintain­ ing a B plus average in his years at Milne. From these accomplishments, Frank has learned and illustrated his leadership and responsibility. One can easily see the great experi­ ence he has gained which will en­ able him to perform the duties of the Vice-President efficiently. His position as program director well qualify him to head the Council Assembly Committee. His prior experience in Presidental positions qualify him to assume control in the absence of the president. We feel well justified in saying that there is no individual better suited for the office of Vice-President. We urge you to cast your ballot for our candidate, Frank Martin. By ABE ANOLIK In 1962 John Glenn orbited the earth, the world approached the brink of nuclear destruction, the New York Yankees won the World Series, and quietly and unknown to the world, Steve Patent entered Milne. Since then he has con­ tributed more and more of his talents and interests to the various organizations of the Milne School, particularly the Student Council. It seems quite natural, therefore, that Steve Patent has decided to run for the important post of Vice President. He is certainly qualifiied for this position. Steve has respresented his homeroom on Student Council for the past two years, and served on the Student Faculty and Sports’ Night Committees. He is a mem­ ber of the National Honor 'Society and Milne’s Little Red Schoolhouse team. Even more important, Steve is a vice-president at heart. He is the Vice President of his homeroom, of the Milne Chess Club, of the Class of ’67, and of his youth group. His participation in baseball, bas­ ketball, bowling, and even pingpong illustrate his wide range of activities. Besides bringing all this experi­ ence to the office of Vice President, Steve will bring a sincere interest in, and desire to serve the Milne student body. I hope that, on elec­ tion day, you will consider all of Steve’s qualifiications and vote for the candidate who will best serve the Milne School. Elect Steve Patent PAGE 2 CRIMSON AND WHITE SECRETARY CAROL MICHAELSON By PAT CALI Carol Michaelson is running for secretary of your Student Council. Carol is often seen in the halls of Milne and at numerous school spon­ sored activities. Carol is presently a member of the school’s Leaders Corps and active in G.A.A. She has also served as acting secretary of Sigma. Carol is an “A” student in English and maintains at least a “B” in all her other courses. She has been on the Honor Roll con­ tinually since at Milne. Carol has also demonstrated her ability of leadership outside of school. She was secretary of her youth group as early as her sophomore year. This year she is president of this group and first vice-president of the New York di­ vision. Carol is a hard working girl with the rare qualities of intelligence, dependability, and originality. Milne needs Carol, Council needs Carol, and YOU need Carol!! A VOTE FOR CAROL IS A VOTE JUDY LAVINE APRIL 27, 1966 TREASURER JOCK FORD BARBARA PROCTOR By SALLY BUTTON By CAROL GRAHAM The council meets . . . the coun­ cil sits . . . the council talks . . . and talks . . . and talks . . . [AC­ TION] is what our senior student council will need next year, and Barbara Proctor is the girl to spark this action. Action can be initiated only by people with good ideas, and Barb’s originality when she chaired com­ mittees for the Alumni Ball and the Card Party undoubtedly helped the success of these activities. When she served as class representative on G.A.A. council last year, Barb’s voice was never raised in idle chat­ ter; she had worthwhile suggestions and new ideas. When judgment was needed, Barbara often pro­ vided the insight that solved a problem. Even people with good ideas can’t always drive a council to action, but responsible leaders who work hard and live up to their obliga­ tions can. In her Girl Scout troop, Barb has served as secretary and has been entrusted with various positions of responsibility. Perhaps you’ve'met Barb in the halls while she was selling Girl Scout cookies and/or calendars. If you have, you know she’s a girl willing to give time and effort to worthwhile activi­ ties, and she will bring this will­ ingness to work to the student council. Experience as treasurer of FHA has acquainted Barb well with the intricacies of the Milne banking system. Surely this asset is essen­ tial to anyone hoping to handle nine separate accounts as student council treasurer. If you want Milne’s student coun­ cil to be “where the action is” next year, you’ll vote for the girl with originality, drive, devotion, and ex­ perience. She’s the kind of person who would help make Milne’s stu­ dent government oner’ to be proud of. Remember these things, fellow students, when you mark your ballots.
