THE STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION OFFICERS President . L. L, TIEMEYER lst Vice President , L. T. JORDAN 2nd Vice President H. CURTIS Secretary-Treasurer , . , B. M. AVERY HE Student Government Association has completed another active year, and its accomplishments have been significant of its purposes. During the past months the Association has succeeded in solving several problems which have been subjects of discussion and dissension for some time past. First it procured keys for all rooms in Maxwell Hall, a sore need sad to say. Next it revised and enlarged upon the Welcoming Ceremony for the newly- capped and gave to the school the lamp to be used in this rite. The Asso- ciation has been especially pleased that it was able to present to Miss Young this Florence Nightingale lamp, and we feel that it is a gift to be cherished and used by all students in succeeding years. A new committee has been established to fulfill the needs of the Hall, a Music Committee, whose duty it is to provide talent for entertainments and to insure a 'pianist at prayers each morning. In order to gain coopera- tion with other groups as far as possible the president of the Glee Club is automatically elected chairman of the committee. This past fall the Association sent its President as its delegate to the New York State Nurses' Convention held here in New York and in addition financed the presence of six other members of the school at certain sessions. We feel that the contacts made herein were worthwhile and interesting, The many and various committees of the Government have worked tire- lessly at their individual tasks, and the Hall has been enlivened by the tunes of three very successful formal dances sponsored by their members, our last and finest being the Christmas dance. The Lending Library, passing its first birthday, has surpassed the fondest hopes of its founders. Our kitchen- ettes have come to mean more than just a cupboard for pots and pans- there's food on them thar shelves! ' And now one more joy is about to be added to life in Maxwell Hall, Senior students are to be granted the privilege of owning radios and a project is under way for wiring the rooms of the lOth and I Ith floors, to gain better reception, prevent a fire hazard, and further our antienoise campaign. We have now spent our last days as members of the Student Govern- ment Association and proudly proclaim that the past year has been a success- ful one. To the councel of our officers and the loyal support of our School do we owe this success. May others to come enjoy like benefits by their membership. Thirty-three
