SENIOR GIRLS' ADVISORY BOARD Organized for the purpose of advising girls of the school concerning problems of suitable dress and make-up, the Senior advisory board served the girls unselfiishly during the past year. The board met every Tuesday during the iirst classroom period. The members of the board are Lois Doucett, Alice Gribble, Elizabeth Gutterman, Roberta Moore, Virginia Richmond, Virgil Ripsinski and Mardie Shute. The work is under the sponsorship of Miss Sadie E. Sherman. JUNIOR GIRLS' ADVISORY BOARD This organization grew out of the Senior Girls' Advisory Board, with an aim of advising the junior high school girls as to the problems of dress and make-up with which they are daily confronted. The helpfulness of this board is unquestioned. Through it, many girls have been instructed as to the appropriate way in which to dress. The girls who served on this board for the first semester were chosen from the A9 class. They were: Dorothy Ovenden, Maria Salvi, Jean Bowlus, and Betty Yungling. The second semester the board was enlarged to include a representative from each class from the A9class. The board consisted of: Olive Anderson, Wanda Ryceak, Dorothea Arndt, Mildred Mower, Lolita Goff, Myrtle Baker, Olga Carlson, and Peggy Lewis. 1 Twenty-ive

FIRST SEMESTER JUDGES WASHINGTON J UDGES The Merit Board was organized four years ago as a permanent organiza- tion and is the judiciary section of our student government administration. All violations of the Washington code caught during the year were summoned, tried, and if found guilty, sentenced and imposed merit losses. According to constitutional amendment made last year, the Merit Board consists of two boys' judges and two girls' judges meeting a high scholarship requirement and a creditable merit record. The judges are elected by the cabinet and are non-Voting members of that body. During the fall semester the boys' judges were Edward Henney and Lowell McGinnis, and the girls' judges, Jean Barr and Ermil Boot. Those for the spring semester were: Alfred D'ArezZo and Harry Koons, boys' judges, and Dianne Malugen and Marie Mallonee, girls' judges. The sponsors for both semesters were Mr. Melzar Lindsey and Miss Frances Ludman. Miss Mignonette Miquel substituted for Miss Ludman during operetta rehearsals. This body has merited a definite place in our student body. It maintains on a firm basis the traditions and rules which are an essential part of school life. It is the duty of the Merit Board to interpret these rules and to enforce their observance. N On-TE: E P CJ' U C-ll E YD. www, fl -s I rx i A A Lok!-Q,,X SECOND SEMESTER JUDGES Twenty-four
