Bob It Gaspich can't make up his mind whether to take his exercise on the field at the north end of school or to duck across the street to the tennis courts, or just sit and look pretty for the women. The background of the alcove with its ivyfcovered walls, the lilyfpadded fountain, and a statue of the soldier is dedicated to those who lost their lives in World War I. So, Lois Dempf sey and Cliver johnson think of the past, talk of the present, and hope for the future. Although jim Macdonald has numerous doors to enter in our two blocks of school, he chooses the ofhce entrance and finds out what's going on before he hits the college hall. In order to make things square for herself, Lois Iahneke parked in the parking lot, dashed over to watch experts on the tennis court, got bored and decided to have a coke, but had to stop off for a rest on the No Parking sign, and then made a desperate dart to the HG Shop. fShe'll complete the square when she gets her carl.

Dick Joutras lazily fumbles with a baffling lockg Mary Katherine Kelley stumbles out of the library, and others come tripping down the hall. Katie Gorey removes her glasses and attempts to decipher the traditionally darkened bulletin board. Marion brightens the hall somewhat with that famous smile of hers. We amble across the hall and peek into the Blazer room, and, as usual, a picture of intense activity and deep concentration is revealed. The Gloomy Gusesn are Gjessing, Anderson, and Petropolis.

All four officers automatically become members of the student council. Their duties, however, are not confined to those of a stu' dent council member. One of their important responsibilities lies in the formation and promotion of plans for a banquet in honor of the graduating sophomore class at the close of the semester, Aside from this they are well occupied in carrying out plans for numerous other social and educational functions thruout the year. The election this year was a very close and interesting one with Campbell and McDowall coming thru to give the engineers and chemists a voice in school politics, Cantu and Egan were members of the Bull Moose Party whose platform was for bigger and better social functions. Cantu repre' sented the teachers while Egan was a pre'com. All ofhcers had been active in high school as well as in other Junior College affairs. Vv'hile in high school, Bob Campbell was an active member of the National Championship Band, being its treasurer in his senior year. He was also chosen as a member of the National Honor Society. George was chosen as a member of the National Honor Society and was elected to the student council for four years. He was president of the junior class. He is a member of the Junior College golf team. The C. A. A. was Delores Cantu's main extracurricular interest. with an active membership for four years. She received several G. A. A. awards. She has carried on in Junior College in the W. A. A. Jack Egan was a member of the student council, Senior HifY club, debate club. and JfHi Thespians. He served as president of the HifY club while in his senior year, and also gave an Ivy Day oration.

Upon election to ofhce they became student council members where their opinions and actions were instrumental in the promotion of various functions carried on within the school. Art Hammel was the presiding officer of the council meetings, in which capacity he set a ine record of achievement. He presided at several student assemblies during the year. He was active in last year's school alfairs. The presidency of the freshman class, as well as the assistant editorship of the I. C. annual, belonged to John Hummel while in his first year.

Frisbie One of the wonderful advantages of higher education lies in the fact that students are given the powers of self-government. ln Joliet Junior College we have this privilege and exercise its powers to the greatest degree. Formal meetings under the parliamentary rulings were conducted weekly with the president of the student council presiding, a secretaryftreasurer recording the minutes of the meetings and taking care of the financial details, and the vicefpresident assisting in conducting the meetings. The council members included all the class othcers along with a represen' tative from every school organization, This provided a variety of ideas for all matters debated upon, and invariably brought out the best results. Student government has reached its highest peak this year under the super' vision of wellfmanaging officers. A great deal of credit must also rightly be given to the faculty sponsor. Mr. Frisbie, for he at all times counseled and advised the othcers and council on all matters of business where such were necessary. The council functioned as a unit at all times in order to be a success. VVith this in mind alone, the idea of student government for the student body and by the student body, success was assured.

Life-- Glorified for All It's a Wonderful World Kent and I, having finished talking to Mr. Ranne, swung around the corner on our way down the corridor. I had decided to drop comparative anatomy and was discussing the advisahility of such a move with my pal, A few steps hrought us to the edge of a moh of freshmen engineers. Several pushes, a grunt or two, and we had put this harrier hehind us. Before we had crossed three 'more floor cracks, a most heautiful creature passed us. A sliding stop, a quick turn of the head, and a sweeping glance revealed to us that this was certainly a sweet little dish. She was quickly engulfed in Douglass gang, and we were obliged to move on. I was dazed: I didn't even notice that my pal dropped into Dillmanls den. Aimlessly I shuffled past the J. J. C. oiiice and on down the hall. I guess it was the hell that awakened me and sent me up to anatomy. After we had taken our seats, I realized that my new find sat only three tables away. Whzit a chance! I eouldn't drop anatomy now. Of course, I did not dare let anyone in on my secret. For days I meditated. planned, and dreamed, until at last I suddenly remembered the big dance, which was only one week away. With pentfup hopes, I rushed into class the next day, only to find that I lacked the nerve to ask for a date. I didn't hear a thing the teacher said the whole periodg I was too excited waiting for the bell. I told Don of my intentions. He smiled as he said he'd gone through the same stages-until this morning, when he found out that she's going steady.

It was up to these people to make out the calendar for the year and elect cofchairmen and committees for the various events which had been scheduled.

It was just these assembly prof grams which the assembly board planned for us. Mr. Leinenweber who was chairman was assisted by Miss Esther Schwerman, Mr. R. L.

They consisted of publicizing all events of the college by writing articles for the Joliet Herald News and the Spectator as well as the two school papers-the jfHi Journal and the Blazer.

Miss Myra Mather, our dean of women and ma to all her friends, is our German teacher. She reigns like a queen, and believe us, she is. Mrs. Esther Richardson, a very prominent artist, has exhibited her work not only locally but in various salons. The students' favorite, the old personality kid, and the best group leader we have is Mr. Alex Zimmerman, alias Zimm . His wonderful musical abilities have enabled him to make I, C. better known by his choir, operas, and community singing. More expression, please are strains that are often heard from Room 251, the theatre of C.. conducted by Miss Esther Schwerman. This versatile young woman instructs classes in dramatics and public speaking. A very unpopular country has a very unpopular language which is taught by a very, very popular teacher-Miss Beulah Agnew. If you can't guess by now, her subject is German. If anyone has had the fashion plate, Miss Mary Scott, he will know the meaning of 'kParlez-vous Francaise as Scottie is our beloved French teacher. Mathematics Department True to the calculations of the junior College math staff two plus two sometimes add up to four. Sometimes it doesnt according to the same staff. Chl Well! ip.s. The members of this same staff have served as capable instructors for a number of years and are well grounded in their theories. ln the group we find Mr. james Skinner on the left side. He performs magic with wand and top hat as well as with mathematical figures. Mr. E. S. McLain supplies the future accountants with information relating to annuities, mortgages, bonds. stocks, etc. Mr. L. B, Aseltine amazes his students with his ability to give mathematics such a meaning and interest. His short cut method is very popular. Mr. E, L. lvlayo has long been a favorite.

George was known to his team mates as the brain man, for he was the man behind the plays set up on the floor. His position was guard. Golf-Dick Shambo. His ability to shoot consistent golf made him the number one choice for cap' tain of the great team. Dick was the mainstay of the J. J. C. team through his ability to take points away from the other teams. Tennis-Bob Roads. He was captain of this year's tennis team and the only letterman in the starting linefup. Bob was the number one man of the team and the most valuable, because of his experience. Baseball-Matt Rogina. He was baseball's leading representative. Matt was a hardfdriving, ever' talkative man, who sparked the team while on the field. He was the number one center fielder of the Wolves' staff. His great playing helped his team win many victories.

However, their attention has not been devoted entirely to scholastic attainf ments. The freshmen have proved a match for the sophof mores in many sports. They have sent a large representaf tion to all of the dances, getftofgethers, and basketball games. They have constituted a large portion of the student council and therefore have been influential in determining some of the year's school policies.

Another one of its achievements, and by the way an aim, assisted the school to a great degree in advertising plays, operettas, and athletic events by pictures taken and put on posters. Also many pictures ap' pearing in the yearbook have been developed by these hardworking camera fans. As a reward for their time and effort spent in tedious work in the 'idark roomn, the pictures entered by the members in the annual spring contest were acclaimed a great success.

Zimmerman in our auditorium was l'The Pink Lady . the Broadway famous musical comedy, presented on April 15, 16. and 17. Miss Elizabeth Mosiman, music instructor in high school, acted as assistant director, while Garland McCowan of ,UC and Robert Henderson were student assistant directors. Dorothy Maxwell. a freshman of our own Junior College, and Milt McK:iy of high school, played the leading roles. Dotty was starred as the Pink Lady or Claudine, while Milt took the part of the young and dashing Lucien Garidel about which the plot was centered. Lucien was to marry Angele fBetty Jane Jensen of .ITQ in six weeks, but was having his last farewell luncheon with Clauf dine at the forest inn. Angele began to suspect Lucien of deceiving her because of the true sus' picions of Maurice Duzac fplayed by Dinx McDonald, also of UCD, a friend. Lucien edged out of the touchy situation very well only after a great amount of planning with Dondidier fNick Radakof vich of HCI, owner of an antique shop, who had been quite a straightffaced, reserved man before this situation, but afterward turned out to be one of the leading hilarious characters. The fast moving score of events was brought to a climax when Lucien admitted that Angele was the only girl he cared for. Also taking part in this show were members of the choir besides the main characters and members of the orchestra and band. One of the outstanding attractions of the evening was the walt: danced by girls attired in pink formals and boys in tuxedos. Through the years this opera will be remembered for its theme song, Beautiful Lady . TO J. C.
