JOHN BLEHARSKI is most sincere about his work in Student Council. The Council means a lot to John, and it shows in his every action.
When he becomes better acquainted with the routine and responsibility of being president, he should be able to communicate with the Council. John is very idealistic, and this idealism has placed him slightly aloof from the average Council member. Perhaps this does have its benefits: John's idealism may place everyone's goal a little higher.
The following letter was sent to the Westerner by last year's foreign exchange student, Ursula Krome. Student Council and The Westerner both hope to be hearing from her in the future.

The Westerner,
During my five-day stay in New York, I got the school newspaper book. I was so excited about it as it was such a surprise.
I am sitting in the waiting room of Lufthansa, and my plane is waiting outside. In 45 minutes I'll be seeing America for the last time. It is sad to think about it, but it is nice too, to know that somebody is waiting in Frankfurt.
About five days ago all the 2,800 students met in Washington. We had a full and very exhausting program. The highpoint was Johnson's talk to us.
When Bobby Kennedy talked to us the next day, I think the students yelled so much more than before. The name Kennedy has a big influence on everybody.
The plane is ready to leave; they just called our flight. I hope everything goes all right.
I'll be leaving now. Good-bye America.
Love, Ursula
