In George Washington the judicial department is called The Merit Board. The members of the board determine the merits to be taken from students who have misconducted themselves while on school grounds. The board is com- posed of the two self-government presidents, the two league presidents and two faculty advisers. Next year students who have a high standing in scholarship and a good merit record will act as judges on the board, replacing the cabinet officers who are other- Wise occupied with many duties. The fall semester merit board was composed of Fanchon Martinson, Worder Freeman, Marjorie Nickum, and Stanley Bryan. The spring term board consisted of Laura Chalker, Ed Henney, Lorraine Larkins, Fred Elliott. lVlr. Melzar Lindsey and lVIiss Margaret Willis have been the sponsors for both semesters.

From the days when thinking men, ex- perimenting with matter, coaxed their flames with bellows and sought to trans- mute dross to gold down to our century with the marvelous, research laboratories, science has been the living source of all progress. It has pierced the veil of super- stitiong it is waging war against disease, lightening man's labors, giving us new keys to the solution of life's mysteries, and push- ing farther and farther the frontiers of truth.
