BILL LUC Chief Justice Judges Hear Major Appeals HEARING APPEALS from both the student body president and the Senate, the judiciary maintains a completely unbiased attitude while interpreting decisions. This branch is composed of five Associated Students Justices, one elected chief justice and four appointed associate justices. The structure of the judiciary is patterned after the Supreme Court of the United States. In all matters pertinent to the provisions of the A. S. Constitution and its By-Laws, the judicial branch has absolute authority. ASSOCIATE JUSTICES are Bill Bennett. Gene Borgna, Bill Luc (Chief), Dick Reese, and Dick Ross. SCRUTINIZING THE FINAN- CIAL MATTERS of the Associated Students is the primary purpose of the Board of Control, which functions under the executive branch. The board also supervises administrative and per- sonnel matters. This fiscal-personnel regulatory body meets once a week to discuss student body problems. Its membership in- cludes four students and two faculty- administrators. The A. S. treasurer serves as chairman of the board. MEMBERS of the Board of Control are Bill Tilney, Dennis Hasty. Glenda Cuthbertson, Bob Patcha. and Mr. Vernon Metzger (adviser). 17
