Functioning smoothly under the respective administrations of its presidents, Kenny Gardner and Bob Gray, the A. M. S. made its presence felt in its attempts to raise the spirit of the institution and its pro- motion of fellowship and welfare among the men. Excellent constructive and entertaining assemblies were held during the year, which featured such speakers as Major Jeffers, World War ace; Coach Joe Pipal, track mentor at Occidental College; Harry Rimmer, archaeologist; and Bert Lloyd, local mine expert, who demonstrated the methods of mine rescue and life-saving work. The Associated Men Students were concerned with two major college activities in the Revue of 1029 and their dance given in honor of the local co-eds. The details of the A. M. S. dance for the Associated Women Students were completed by Bob Gray, who headed the committee for the arrangements of the event. The dance was held near the end of the first term and was attended by the college leaders, who contributed to its unusual success as a traditional social function.

One of the first pieces of work done by the organization was the securing of a room for the exclusive use of the women students, and the furnishing of it. The room is open to the women at all periods of the day. Several parties were sponsored by the organization, the reception and party held early in the semester; and a Kid par gym later in the term. Interesting assemblies were held throughout the semester, the four most out- standing ones being those featuring Mrs. Schweiso, Y. W. C. A. Secretary of Glen- dale; the Christmas program; hygiene class stunts; and the final installation service. Completing the furnishing of the room which was given over to the organization was one of the principal undertakings of the A. W. S. during the second semester. As a result of the interest and efforts of Miss Shibley, Miss Schrader, and Miss Seiwell, the room has been made more attractive and cheerful. Perhaps the outstanding event during the term was the informal May dance given in honor of the men students. being the Freshman held in the women ' s

£j GALLEON I he first number of the Galleon was issued last year during the third week of school under an editorial board composed of last year ' s staff. After the first three issues a staff was chosen by .Miss Murphy, faculty adviser, and Jack McChesney, secretary of publications. This staff continued to function until the end of the first six weeks ' period of the second semester, when a change was made which seemed for the best interests of the paper. The staff during the first semester was: Lorraine Huber and Kenneth McComb, editors; Marian Morehouse, associate editor; Carl Seybold, sports editor; Bob Bar- ragar, columnist; Bill Hail, busine:s manager, and Fay Youngblood, exchanges. Dur- ing the second semester, Kenneth McComb requested that he be made sports editor, and Carl Seybold was made feature editor. The staff during the second semester was accordingly as follows: Lorraine Huber, editor; William Goss, assistant editor: Carl Seybold, feature editor; Kenneth McComb, sports editor: Sam Clayton, assistant Sim N; 1 ' helma Wieburg, women ' s news; Bob Barragar, columnist; Bill Hail, business manager, and Frank Strickland, circulation. Although the paper did not increase in size, due to a lack of finances, it has been generally conceded that it has shown improvement and development over the past year. During the last semester an effort was made to increase the interest and value b running timely cuts of news events and personalities about the campus. This is prob- ably the main innovation attempted by the paper during the year. A] Van Gilse represented the paper on the executive board the second semester as secretary of publications. The work of Lorraine Huber and Kenneth McComb as editors of the Galleon was very efficient during the entire vear.
