Gm swam Q my At Commerce We have a Senior Control, Senior Council, and a Student Body Court which function as our agencies of self-con- trol. Most students are familiar with the Senior Control. Few students are familiar with the Student Court. lt is the duty of the Student Court to deal with the students who receive tags for vio- lating school rules. The ludge attempts to enable the guilty students to see their errors, to realize their responsibility to themselves, to others and to the school. The primary aim of the court is to correct rather than to punish, ln this Work the ludge is assisted by the Prosecuting Attorney and Defense Attorney. lt is their function to aid defendants to bring out the facts in each case. The Student Court had a Clean-Up-Cam- paign this semester, which Was very suc- cessful. The personnel of the Student Court for the Fall term of 1940 Caccording to the photos belowl are as follows: ludge, Tom Savasta, Chief of Police, lames Woods, Defense At- torney, Louis Paponis, Prosecuting Attorney, Mel Semi, Bailiff, Ben Levin, and the clerks, Kay Paulin and lrene Gerard Kno photol.
