Student Council HE Student Council is a legislative and judicial body composed of students representing the Freshman, Sophomore, and Prep School classes. The members are chosen by popular vote of the members of their respective classes. ln the past year the council has met regularly twice a month, but on various occasions special meetings were called so that desired action could be obtained. The council has functioned very efficiently and has undoubtedly proved of value to the student body. lt has been instrumental in improving parts of the campus, making probable a change in the conduct- ance of final examinations next year, and improving the conduct of the students. The council also engi- neered the faculty take-offs in April, and assisted the administration at the annual Career Forum. The prep school is represented on the Council by Norlaine Erhardt. The Freshman class elected Lorraine Moesel, Ruth Cairns, Charles lohnson, William Dowey and lra Stone.

Tribunal N the approved manner of all tribunals the Key- stone Tribunal did its best to instill into the hearts and minds of the lowly Freshmen the love of the Bible and the fear of the Sophomore. Appointed by the graduating Sophornores, they did their best to follow the examples of justice laid out for them by the tribunals of various foreign nations. The Freshman Was Wrong until he proved himself right, but he was not allowed to defend himself. They deserve especial commendation for the efficient manner in which they quelled the Fresh- man lnsurrection of October. Within four hours the Tribunal had concluded a treaty by which the Soph- ornores would not become too horrible, and the Freshmen would Wear their dinks and ties for an extra month. The first effect of the Tribunal was to cement the Freshmen into a strong, brotherly organization. Second it promoted college spirit. Third, it has en- abled the Freshmen to become better acquainted with the Sophomores. Childish as the penalties may have been, ,today they are seen in the same spirit of fun in which they were inflicted. First row, seated, left to right: Sweetser, Peck, Davis, Carpenter, C. Davies.

HE Keystone Women's Organization, under the excellent leadership of Dean Vivian L. Watkins, has proven an invaluable social asset.

A buffet supper and games followed. A supper and card party was held on November 22 in the Gymnasium. The Christmas Party, on December 14, was a tea and reading. Mrs. Salo Friedwald read Maxwell Anderson's Star Wagon . The Valentine Party, on February 14, was scheduled to be a skating party on the Nokomis, but because of weather conditions it was changed to a supper and card party in the Gymnasium. The traditional mili- tary ball was held on March 21. Half of the girls came dressed as men and escorted the ladies. The costumes were very clever and a grand march decided the prizes. It was fol- lowed by a buffet supper and program dance. The KWO April Showers Dance was held on April 23 and was proclaimed a huge suc- cess. A hay ride and supper concluded the social events for the year. The excellent cooperation of all the girls and the untiring efforts of Dean Watkins, and of Miss Dorothy Kay, who became faculty ad- visor upon the marriage of Miss Watkins, aid- ed in the Organizations very successful social calendar.
