student Affairs It takes a great amount of time and patience to keep a school as large as Kansas State run- ning smoothly, as these campus notables can testify. Over a thousand coeds look to Miss Helen Moore, Dean of Women, for advice on personal problems and for friendly cooperation in stu- dent affairs. Every student ' s individual coughs and sneezes are the personal worry of Dr. M. W. Husband, whose official title is director of student health. When he isn ' t busy feeling pulses in the college hospital or the dispensary, he teaches a class in preventative medicine, a popular course. Veritable matriarch of registration is Miss Jesse M. Machir, who also keeps the records of students ' grades. To Kenney L. Ford falls the task of keeping Kansas State constantly before the eyes of the alumni, hence his many speaking engagements. KENNEY L. FORD (lower left), supervises student loan funds and also is in charge of alumni-college affairs. Miss Jesse Machir (center) rules each enrollment from her position as registrar. Dr. M. W. Hus- band (right) is in charge of student health. DEAN HELEN MOORE, new to Kansas State last fall, has already made a distinguished name for herself on the campus. Coeds re- spect her for her determined noble efforts. Page 25

Council Rules Undergrad Activities To GOVERN nearly 4,000 students is the re- sponsibility of the Student Governing Asso- tion, composed of nine outstanding students elected by popular vote. Headed this year by Bill Hickman, the group is composed of two members from each division except Veterinary Medicine, which chooses one representative. The other General Science student on the council, beside Hickman, was Mary Ann Bair. Engineers were Bill Bixler and Fred Eyestone. Roger West represented the Division of Veteri- nary Medicine, while Gene Fair and Charles Adams were chosen by the Agriculture students. Home Economics representatives were Jessie Collins and Dorothy Axcell. Enforce Constitution Laws It is the duty of the Council to see that no student violates the laws of the Student Govern- ing Association constitution. On rare occasions the Council acts as a court to pass sentence on the behavior of individual students. In the class elections this fall two students tried to vote twice, only to have the firm arm of the student law reach out and bring them before the governing body. Bill Hickman, as president, appointed the Kansas State Apportionment Board, and served with this committee to plan the amount dele- gated to each of many college activities, includ- ing the S.G.A. Selects Committee Members He also selects members of the Celebrity Series Committee, who arrange for outside tal- ent to be brought to the campus, expense financed by the student activity fee. This year proved a hectic one for S.G.A. Council members because of the campus con- troversy on the out-of-town dance rule. This law prohibited students from attending un- approved dances out of Manhattan unless writ- ten permission from their parents was filed in the office of the Dean of Women. The reason for the enforcement was twofold. Out of town dances are not chaperoned, and students attending t hem cannot keep College hours. For these reasons, the Council decided to check dances of this kind. Offenders were to be brought before the governing group, and were eligible for suspension or expulsion. MEMBERS OF THE Student Council cast reflections on the table ' s top before they get down to the business of the evening. Left to right: Fred Eyestone. Charles Adams. Mary Ann Bair. Roper West.
