The dance this fall in Bennett Gym was the highlight of the first tcrm's activties. For the AA. show, city girls presented a picture of alumnae and pres- ent Goucherites, featuring a butterfly net and a soap box. In the spring the thoughts of city students turn to Mary Fisher and Towson campus. A country outing is just the thing. The year comes to a close at last with thoughts of the summer ahead and a year of fun and friendship just past. Gouchcr Ilouse is to all purposes a residence hall, but as any city student will be willing to tell you, it is not just like the others. During the day the big first Hoof rooms arc open to city stu- Of Our Hvllegc Wzfrlil dents for eating lunch, endless games of bridge and relaxation. Freshman city girls are introduced to Goucher I-louse at a luncheon given just before convoca- tion. The rooms are always openg on some occa- sions a city student may be found there studying for an afternoon exam. But everyday at lunch time the rooms are sure to be filled with hungry girls carrying lunches packed at home or bought at the nearest drug-store. VVhen the paper bag crowd has gone, there are usually some of the city setl' left playing one more hand of bridge before afternoon labs begin.

It requires a great deal of hard work and patience. Marjorie Gold, Steele Thomas, Dorothy Armstrong, Emily Haas, Ioy Kinneman, Dorothy Plack, Iacqueline Stiteler and Nancy Thompson, Presidents of North House, South House, Wfest House, East House, Cimle, i'2229, Goucher House and Alfheim, respectively, deserve more than a little credit and praise for the Ene jobs they have done. Their most important task is to watch over the freshmen, to make them feel at home. To accom- plish this end they must hold orientation meet- ings to acquaint the girls with Coucher's routine. They must instruct the freshmen in the social rules and administer the social regulations exami- nation. Most of all, though, they must be ready at all times to answer any question or to give comfort and advice on any problem which a frosh may have. In addition, the hall presidents must see that quiet hours and all social regulations are observed. They must appear with members of their halls at meetings of judicial Board. They must super- vise all activities which the dormitories undertake. The dorm presidents' duties are endless. Theirs was a job well done. t-lui' '- fl3i ' till' 53 - Darin Gmferliiifivizi l6'egii1s With flu!! Frcsideufs Right: Kinneman, D. Armstrong, S. Thomas, M. Gold, Sitlerg not pic- tured: E. Ilaas, D.

Armstrong fudmfs ' Organization - pvfifivus, affirm. he Students' Organization of Goucher pro- vides the students with their opportunity to con- trol to some extent rules and regulations and to provide for their own discipline and activities. Each student of Goucher is a member of this 'organization and participates in the elections of its officers. Here the Goucher student is given a chance to practice leadership and demonstrate her ability to follow. The enforcement of Coucher's Honor System lies under the jurisdiction of this organization. The freedom each student has in conjunction with examinations and all work is made possible by the constant efforts of Students' Organization to keep alive scrupulous adherence to the rules and regulations. Thus responsibility for the maintenance of high academic and social stand- ards has been entrusted to the students in co- operation vvith the faculty. Through mass meetings and elections, each student is allowed a voice in .this democratic 26 Kcsalufinus and kegulafivus aspect of our college world. Students' Organiza- tion is the means by which student opinion and reaction reaches the faculty and administration. Student Organization also handles many of the year's activities such as the NV inter Cotillion, May Ball and Thanksgiving Dinner. lt is the guiding force behind the major activities in the social life of the college. Students' Organization meets regularly three times a year. It functions through the Executive Board which meets weekly and the judicial Board which considers all cases involving a breach of honor. This instrument of contact between the faculty and the student body is a force very much alive at Coucher, conciliating administrative demands and student wishes and maintaining appropriate conduct in the Student Body both through the llonor System and the Tone Committee.
