STUDENT GOVERNMENT President Mary Belle Clark led the chosen few whose duty it is to guide the girls along the straight and narrow path and enforce penalties on the backsliders. They wrestled with the smoking problem again, but didn ' t succeed in laying the ghost satisfactorily. After going over the rules and the constitution, they decided to weed out the obsolete ones. The Council is con- sidering putting out a handbook of all rules, which will be a boon to bewildered freshmen. The girls rose to the occasion when January and semester exams arrived by serving mucli- wclcomed tea and cookies in tlie afternoons. Tiie boys were captained by f ve Stanfield, who attempted to continue the policy of settling till- pri ])li ' nis wliicli arose individually, rather than bringing them up in formal student govern- ment meetings. With an enrollment of less than .50 boys, the new Student Govermnent was com- paratively inactive. 29

STUDENT AFFAIRS BOARD This year, as al va s. the Stuck ' iit Aflairs Board kept its eagle eve upon the organizations under its direction, weeding out ineligibles and watching budgets. A new policy was inaugurated during elections, by having leaders of campus organizations announce their candidates and dis- cuss the (lualilications needed for the iiositions. The new budget was presented in iliapcl. and was approved by the student bodv. The Board attempted to distribute fairly the money available to the organizations. Cuts were made in the less active groups, while in some cases allotments were increased, in recognition if wartime price increases. t 28

Committee chairmen were Helen Lewis and Barbara Williams, espers: Pat Lockwood. Social Service; Margery Huber and Roberta Reid. Publicity; Anne Schneider, Membership: and Deedie Swisher, representatixe to the interracial commission. These chairmen attempted to use as manv of the Y members on their committees as was possible, so that the members of the Christian organizations might feel that thev were not a .-eparate group from that of the Cabinet. Open meetings were held the first Monday of each month, when ' members attended the Cabinet jneetings. It was through the efforts of the Cabinet that a new bulletin board was procured. The presidents encouraged attendance at con- ferences, and under their leadership seventeen Cuilfordians attended the conference on Ad- ventures in Applied Christianity held at Salis- iiurv in the fall. Ill the s]M ing the Caliinets held their aimual lireakfast retreat, at which animal reports were made by the committee chairmen, and the new presidents.
