One of their most important pieces of work was the revision of the Constitution, bringing it up-to- date. The Court of Justice and the Hall Patrol have been greatly improved this year due to Commission- er efforts. Another achievement of this busy group was the republication of the Freshman Handbook. The re- organization of over twelve clubs was another step forward. They have successfully promoted the sale of War Bonds which amounted to $15,284.00. The Magazine Subscription Campaign was also under their management and a record total of $13,500.00 was brought in. Working behind the scenes, the Commissioners have assumed many responsibilities for which all too little credit is given. Their jobs are necessary functions in the life of the school and in the activities of the De- Vilbiss family.
