There are two organizations in our school which help to enforce the rules: the Hall guards and the Bounds patrol. They are under the supervision of the commissioner of safety and the faculty sponsorship of Mr. William C. Morrison. The Hall guards are usually lower grade boys who volun- teer to serve. They are stationed in the halls during the lunch period so that those areas will be clear. This year a new system was initiated. The doors leading from the outside to the halls were locked, thereby preventing the students from entering without having the guards resort to force. The Bounds patrol is macle up of cooperative members of the student body who have cars and who are willing to give up their noon hour each day. Their duty is to patrol the streets around the school to see that students who do not have permits do not leave the campus. A state law necessi- tates the school's having a Bounds patrol. Because of the noon programs which were especially helpful in keeping the students out of the halls and from going off bounds, the Bounds patrol this year was comparatively small. Congratulations are due the student body, which has cooperated exceptionally well with the Hall guards and the Bounds patrol. V 25

x S 1 f if V ,X W W, First Semester . ,t Y lllllllll if A Q , V w W. Second Semester ,M The student court is an excellent example of the extended student government at Beverly. Dur- ing the first semester the court was separated into two, a girls' court and a boys' court, but in the second semester the court was united. The court, more active during the second semester than the first, is made up of three appointed Senior A's, th ree appointed Senior B's, the presidents of the Al- phas and Knights, the president and vice-president of the Girls' league, and the president, vice- president, secretary, and treasurer of the Boys' league. The appointments are made by the student body president and are approved by the Student Council. lf the case concerns a girl, the chief jus- tice is a girlg if a boy is concerned, the chief justice is a boy. The faculty adviser of the court is Mrs. Mary Herron. The Court rules on violations ot all school laws. It passes sentence on students whose conduct is disorderly in assemblies, and who exhibit signs of poor citizenship, such as fighting, gambling, cheating, and incorrect hall behavior. Students who do not cooperate in air raid drills and who wear illegal athletic letters are also brought before the court. lt is felt that if delinquent students are reprimanded by their peers, the result will be moe effective. 24
