STUDENT couNciL Presided over by Wendell Bell, student president, the council this year appointed a com- mittee to revise the constitution. The revision, which was started last year, was voted upon by the student body but failed to receive the two-thirds majority required for rati- fication, although more than half of the votes cast were favorable. After further revision, the new constitution was expected to be brought up for another vote late this spring. The council also voted to join the United States National Students Association, which automatically made every Stater a member of the NSA. Bob McCoy, '48, was appointed to head the Fresno State NSA committee. Some of the major activities initiated by the com- mittee were a series of forum programs of moving pictures and lectures begun by Atomic Energy Week, a campaign to get students on the curriculum and other faculty commit- tees, an anti-discrimination program using exhibits and articles illustrating contributions of minority groups to world culture, and an intramural bowling league tournament as an all-campus unifying activity. Sub-committees of the NSA are Frank Snyder and Leonard Hoff, racial discrimination, Gilbert Abcarian and Stuart Bryant, foreign study, and Dick Mallory, bowling league. Convention delegates were Steve Lagudis, Nancy Jorgensen, Hoff, and Mallory. Other members of the committees were Beverly Gibson, Bob Parrish, and Howard Hughes.

STUDENT COUNCIL HE Student Council is the basis of the entire government of the associated student body. It is at meetings of this council that any student may assert his views and state his gripes, that amendments and by-laws to the constitution are formulated, that student poli- cies on every subject from cheating in examinations to racial discrimination are made. The council is the backbone of representative government because each of the 60 ac- tive, recognized college organizations may send one member to council meetings. That delegate is entitled to a vote on any question brought before the body. Meetings are open, however, to all students. Voting members of the council, in addition to the organization representatives, are the student body officers and the chairmen of all standing committees of the association. President Thomas, Dean of Women Baker, and Dean of Men Beatty act as advisors to the body. Although the constitution states that the council will act in an advisory capacity to the student president, no case is known in which the president failed to abide by the decision of the council. Other powers and duties listed in the constitution are the power to act, subject to the approval of the Board of Directors, upon all matters not otherwise provided for in the constitution and by-laws, and the obligation to discuss all items of interest to the Fresno State College Association.

DATE COMMITTEE PUBLIC RELATIONS CCMMITTEE ALL organizations on the campus to hold a social at- fair or activity must submit their proposed dates, which the com- mittee then approves. All cam- pus activities are then prepared into a calendar tor the semester. The committee is composed of the Dean ot Men, the Dean of Women, and a man and a wom- an student. THE job of the Public Relations Committee is to promote Fres- no State College in every way possible by using every publicity medium available, both local and national. Under spring sem- ester Chairman Tom Lynch, the committee concentrated its et- torts on the all-school show, Varsity Varieties. Enlarging the college curriculum, further de- velopment of the Agriculture Department, and the conducting of numerous polls were other campaigns carried out by the committee. Spring members were Carol Norman, Jeanette Smith, Mar- garet Munson, Blanche Faddis, Herb Greer, Chuck Price, Tom Riise, and Ruth Mazman. Lett to right are Carlos Wilton, Nancy Wockner, Mildred Schmidt, William Forbes, Chairman, Lenice Lord, Bina Hilden, and Robert Casebolt.
