Rep Assembly passes on the minutes of the previous meeting Representative Assembly The government of Barnard ' s Undergraduate Association is built on the theory of representative government. Repre ' sentative Assembly includes in its membership representatives of all the associational organizations and activities of the classes, the residence halls and the college-at-large. It also includes Undergraduate Officers and chairmen of certain activities. Rep Assembly resembles our national organization not only from the positive point of view, but also from the nega ' tive, in that this year many students have not taken advantage of the privilege of participating in their own governing body. 16

Grace Barrett, Editor Bulletin Headlines and Deadlines — Bulletins scribes spend their time writing one against the other. But work on this, one of the most exacting of college activities, is in reality composed of all aspects of journalism, from the romantic to the technical. News staff members follow up assigned events — or exercise that nose for news in finding material on their own — and twice a week, under a managing editor ' s supervision, stories are re-worked, headed, and appropri ' ately placed in the dummy. Editor Billie Barrett inspired this year several efficient innovations. Given more re sponsibility than before, lower staff members have gained valuable experience as tempo- rary assistant managing editors. More de- tailed, professional-style news stories have made the paper a better journalistic organ. A reference morgue has been collated for the first time.
