gre., 891176 CWQII NE of the reasons why violators of school rules this year could not get away with it is pictured at the upper right of the page. The Student Control ofhcers spent much time seeing to it that other students spent theirs properly. The Supreme court, whose job it is to handle students who fail to conduct themselves as decorum decrees, are at the upper left. This court tried only a few cases all year. Below them is the ,Lower court. Those who kept the books for the A. S. B. and took in the money in the office cage?-the student body cashiers-are at the immediate right. Seen on the fire escape are the ushers who served at the school's funct- ions. V l TUDENT Control is here to stay, was the statement Walter Ingle, adviser, was enabled to issue after having guided the plan through its hectic two years of infancy. Student Control, another step in the advancement toward student government in high schools, was instituted to give pupils better training in citizenship, and to give teachers time which they formerly spent in patrolling halls for other duties. Approximately 40 students volunteered for patrol during the year. These were voted upon by a com' mittee of faculty members and students and, if elect- ed, were placed on reserve until called. The judiciary division of Student Control consists of a supreme and lower court. The supreme court tries all students who have been convicted more than four times in the lower court. Members of the supreme court this year were: Chief Justice, Jamse Bohleg Justices, Miss Anne Irene Johnson, Walter lngle, Dan Blom, George Fliiiet, June Austin and Maria Locke. Lower court judges were: Chief Justice, Robert Cahoon: Justices, Prudence Wilson and Lorenz Goetz. Signa Gustafson was clerk. Bob Anderson was student head of the project during the lirst semester, Curtis Stebbins during the second. Kenneth Baldwin was assistant. 77, W ,

Qfzeaf Linen LTHOUGH this page is devoted more or less to the odds and ends of Associated Student Body life, they are important 'iodds 'n' ends, for within the scope of their duty is contained a large number of most important reasons why student functions do function. The Executive Council, in the right corner of this page, is the big gun of A.S.B. policy. Among its key functions are the nominating of mana- gers, choosing of A.S.B. committees, and legislating on matters concern- ing the student body as a whole. Controversial problems between func- tions of organizations and students are settled, and requests for formation of new clubs or appointments to clubs or for school events are passed upon. The council consists of A.S.B. officers, class officers, and Girls' and Boys' club presidents. At the right, the yell staff is all up in the air, where they spent a good part of their time this year, leading students on to louder and more uniform cheering for the boys in blue. Under the sponsorship of Bill as King and Sandy as Duke an outdoor rally and several peppy pep assem- blies were achieved, and class yell contests were held. 23 O the left are the committees re- sponsible for the ticking of the A.S.B. timepiece. Reading down the first co-lumn of pictures are the publicity, apportion- ment and assembly committees. Dean Grainger, rally chairman, is the lone figure at the top of the right row. The other groups are the point and trophy committees. The publicity group concerned itself with seeing that Olympia high received credit where credit was due. The rally committee, consisting only of the diminutive Dean Grainger, proves that good things do come in small packages. The rally boss led in keeping the Bear mark highest. The apportion- ment committee oversees the dividing of A.S.B. funds among various school organizations. Another bogey-man of high school life is the point com- mittee which checked up on cases of over-active students.

The class above, believed to be that of '88, was one of the first high school groups to graduate in Olympia. An interesting contrast is presented between this small but enter- prising class and that of 1937, with its 265 members. WM, KB..-.:,5N f Ek
