Loyd Tutor Boys ' Vice-Pres. Margaret Cowan William Schmitt Phyllis Thompson Secretary President Girls ' Vice-Pres. Winter ' 35 Commissioners rO a group such as the W ' 35 Commissioners headed by a person of William Schmitt ' s ability, the handicaps which appeared soon after the opening of school in September, became, not obstacles, but a stimulus to great- er efforts and achievements. Believing that it was better to make an attempt and to fail, than to make no attempt at all, this executive group worked together as a cooperative unit and inaugurated many new Tei Sugi Girls ' Sports projects, a few of which are: the Community Contact Council, to establish a closer relation- ship between the school and the community; the Open Forum, where constructive criticism concerning the school government can be of- fered by anyone; and the development of a more democratic s chool government. This term, the increase from thirteen to twenty in the number of commisioners proved to be satisfactory. , Don Schaeffer Boys ' Sports Arthur Logue ,4 ccoumtant Leah Huddleston Finance Vera Pittenger Girls ' Personnel Robert Cluff i Boys ' Personnel Sol Cordoba Sociol Living Pres.

Boys ' Finance Summer ' 35 Commissioners rHE Commissioners of the summer sem- ester concentrated their efforts on the development of the activities begun by the winter group. Also, much of their time was devoted towards making the intra-mural organizations more effective. From two classes of Knights and Chate- laines were chosen the playground assistants and the leaders of the clubs then being organ- ized in the community. This term two sei-vice Lorane Allen Girls ' Sports clubs for the students of the ninth grade, call- ed the Lincoln Lads and Lincoln Lassies, were formed. The commissioners did a great deal towards providing the school with interesting enter- tainment which included after-school dancing, parties, assemblies, and motion pictures. As visual education has become more im- portant at Lincoln, a new commissioner was appointed to take charge of this activity.
