iv? COURT Arnold Carnevale, Janet Tophimv Chief JU' tice Inez Jones, William Kotsch, Herbert Ro gove, Sylvia Zimmerman. ourt T HE Co11rt is also an important organ of the Students Association. The Court has a system of penalties for those students who, after trial, are found to be guilty of some infraction of the rules. However, this is not its main objective. It tries to guide the student by helping him to realize that he was wrong and to curb further misdemeanors. The Court consists of seven members, namely: The Chief-justice and two asso- ciate judges from each grade Qone boy and one girlj. These judges are elected only from the IIB, IZA, and IZZB grades. They are elected at the close of each term for the following semester. The Court meets each Monday afternoon for the hearing of cases. A very important committee which works under the Court is the Six-Footers' Committee. It is composed entirely of boys who are six feet and over and its re- sponsibility is to cover those portions of the school building and grounds not covered by other groups of monitors. It has come to hold an important place in the Stu- dents Association. This term, under the joint sponsorship of the Senate and Court, the Five-Foot Femmes were organized as a committee of girls to augment the Six- Footers. Though new. it has shown itself to be a valuable asset to the Students Association. The Court had one main project on which it concentrated its efforts- a big no-smoking campaign. With the cooperation of all concerned a decided change in the prevalence of smoking on school premises was noticed. VVe can only hope that the Courts in the future will continue to function as elliciently. This term our Chief-justice was Inez Jones and the 12B Associate Judges were William Kotsch and Janet Topham, all of whom must be congratulated for their splendid work on the Court. Tzccnfy-three
