CHROMASCOPE JfeaOfeSSfcslQ GIRLS’ EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE U THE Girls’ Council, which is the governing body of the women of Austin College, is composed of all the girls of the student body who are classified as regular students. This orgnaization meets once each month to consider matters that pertain to the welfare of the co-eds and the College as a whole. One of the chief objectives of the Council this year has been the raising of money for the Girls’ Scholarship Fund that is being created, whereby some girl, each year, will receive a scholarship to the College. Under the direction of Naomi Giles and Martha Stormont the fund has been materially increased. The Girls’ Executive Committee, com' posed of representatives of the four classes, handles all cases of dishonorable conduct and discipline among the women of the Student Body. Besides working in every way for the welfare of the College as a whole, the Council has tried also to promote a spirit of good will among the girls themselves. The Freshmen have proved themselves good sports, and the upper classmen, cap able leaders. Page 31 Naomi Giles, President, Girls' Council

MEN’S EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Ba: Row: Springall, Scott, Felker, Firebaugh, Cockerell, Spencer Front Roto: Henderson, Teel, Shoultz, Jones, Bennett. AUSTIN COLLEGE believes in the things that will help the students most in life both in and out of college. On this account, the government of the student body is turned over to the students, who, with the coooeration of the faculty, make their own laws and enforce them. The nucleus of the stu- dent government is the Mens’ Executive Committee and the Womens’ Execu- tive Committee which co-operate in handling the business of the student body. The Mens’ Executive Committee is composed of four members of the Senior Class, three members of the Junior Class, two members of the Sophomore Class, and one member of the Freshman Class. The duties of the Mens’ Committee are to take charge of all cases of disobedience of the men of the Student Body, the procedure be- ing much the same as that of the courts of our land. Austin College has the Honor System because without the principle of honor in his life the work of a man is in vain, in so far as the greater and nobler things of life are concerned. The Executive Committee is also the center of the Honor System. Charles Shoultz, President, Student Body

MESSAGES FROM THE CLASSES MESSAGE OF THE SENIOR CLASS: The present graduating class feels that it has an honor which is of peculiar distinction to the class of '31 alone. Austin College proudly held her own during the period of development, which may be properly classified as the “Old Regime . The Class of ’31 entered and served under the “Old Regime”. The Soph and Junior years of this class wit- nessed a period of transition between the old and new Austin College. Consolidation and uncer- tainty were in the air but we did all in our power to see the consolidated schools located on the Austin College Campus. In our Senior Year we have seen Austin Col- lege in it new form, consolidated, and in addi- tion, co-operative in its work with Kidd Key. The College of four years ago and today seem like different schools, but this class has welcomed every change for the advancement of the school. We see nothing but bright things for the stu- dents of the future. Paul Sanders, President of Senior Class MESSAGE OF THE JUNIOR CLASS: The Junior Class of '31, the graduating class of '32, although not as large as some of the classes has been very successful. Members of the Junior class are leaders of every phase of campus acti- vities—athletics, musical organizations, publi- cations and scholarship. This year has been successful and the Junior Class feels proud of what it has done to keep the Kangaroo Spirit and the spirit of the combined student bodies of Kidd Key and Austin College. George Crosthwaite President of Junior Class MESSAGE OF THE SOPHOMORE CLASS: The Sophomore Class of '31 has been repre- sented in all phases of college life. It has given support to the literary clubs, to the religious organizations, to the band, and all athletics; and many other movements which have been en- gaged in by the class. Continued on page 58
