ASSOCIATION The Student Association, that name given to the entire student body assembled, is composed of the Officers of the Student Asso- ciation, the Student Executive Council, and the entire roster of enrolled students. The Officers are elected by the vote of the entire student body from an unlimited number of candidates for each office. The mem- bers of the Student Executive Council are elected from their re- spective classes by popular vote. There are four members from the Senior Class, three from the Junior Class, two from the Sopho- more Class, and one from the Freshman Class. The President is assisted by the Vice-President and the Secretary in holding meetings of the Student Association as well as Student Council meetings The work of the Council consists in the running of student affairs and government, and in the taking of such action as they may deem best for the welfare of the students. During the past year the Association, under the splendid leadership of W. O. Willie Stone, made great strides in placing the name of Mississippi State higher in collegiate circles. Representatives were sent to the Stu- dent Union meeting held in Indianapolis, Indiana, in December; and the Maroon Band made the epochal trip to the Army through the influence and partial financial help of the Council. Special telegraph wires, leased by the Council, and managed by the Coun- cil ' s hustling Vice-President, J. E. Farmer Wade, brought to the campus the play by play description of the Maroon ' s successful conquests of foreign soil. Other results, some less tangible than others, have constituted a full year of action and accomplishment in the annals of the student government at Mississippi State. The Council in Session

THE BOOK IN THE MAKING THIS BUSINESS Uur Sponsor MRS. D. H. OAK LEY For almost three decades the students of Mississippi State have published an edition of the Reveille for the future pleasure and enjoyment of those included in its pages. Some editions have been very successful — others have not been so successful. Notwithstand- ing, all were planned with the cherished hope on the part of the Editor and the Business Manager of portraying college life in as real and unaltered man- ner as possible. So it is that this year ' s Editor and Business Manager and their associates have worked untiringly in an ef- fort to make this — the 1936 Reveille — one that will be remembered when others have been forgotten. If they could be assured that its leaves would become worn from wear and use, and that it would not be surrendered to the fate of moth balls and rats — ■ then would they feel that their work was not in vain.
