THE GIRLS' COURT The Girls' Court is composed of nine judges, the Commissioner of Girls' Welfare, and a faculty sponsor. The judges and the commissioner are elected at every regular student body election. To run for judge, a girl must have been enrolled in Beverly for at least one semester, and must have all the grades and signatures re- quired by the Student Body Constitution, except that there is no certain number of service points required. The Commissioner must have satisfied all the above requirements and be a- senior with some court experience. She is an ex-officio member of the Girls' League Cabinet and the Board of Commissioners. The court has jurisdic- tion over all cases of girls off bounds, smoking, ditching, and any others that are recommended to it by the Girls' Adviser. All serious cases are referred back to the Girls, Adviser. The court gives citations to offenders found guilty, the number depending upon the gravity of the offense, the offender's previous record, and her attitude in general toward the court. The record of all citations given is kept by the clerk and is later trans- ferred tol the personnel sheets, A large number of these citations affect graduation and the ability to run for school offices. Commissioners of Girls' Welfare: Jane Hughes and Virginia Lee Wilkinsonp V Judges: Barbara Anderson, Belle Bendheim, Mary Lou Carlson, Claire Cox, Virginia Edington, Jane Forster, Ethel Hamilton, Joan Jordan, Anne Gillespie, Freddie Hatch, Patricia Loy, Ruth Mellinkoff, Anne Montgomery, Suzanne Reynolds, Rhea Wil- kinson, Evelyn Bard, Patricia Young.
