e ommLssL oners George Dole, who has served as President of the Student Body and presiding officer of the Commission where he acts as ex-officio member, has capably filled his second term on the Commission. Renee Holden, Vice-President of the Student Body and President of the Girls League, has also very ably served her second term on the Commission. The Commissioner of Entertainment, Bill Mills, has been very successful in obtaining fine and entertaining assemblies this year. To Jimmie Pinkerton, Commissioner of Boys ' Wel- fare, goes the due credit of the promotion of athletics in the school this year. Charles Lamke, who has acted as editor of the school paper this year, should be congratulated for his fine work. Ross Herrick is largely responsible for this annual, and therefore highly recommended. The two juniors, Arthur Gore, Commissioner of Finance, and Martha Cunningham, Commissioner of Records, have credited their class in the efficient man- agement of the Commission funds and the A. S. B. store. George Dole Bill Mills Renee Holden James Pinkerton Charles Lamke Ross Herrick Martha Cunningham Arthur Gore

Roblee MRS. CAROLINE ROBLEE €A e e m m i s s L Yi At the end of each year the members of the student body select eight representatives to serve them during the following year as school Commissioners. Each Commissioner is assigned an important duty which requires long hours of hard work. As a body the organization has strived to meet the problems of the student body to their advantage. Each member of the Commission has fulfilled his particular post to the best of his ability and has in return enjoyed the honor and prestige of the body. Again the school is able to accept the year ' s work of this Commission as successful, but what- ever credit is due the Commission for achievements should go to Caroline Roblee and H. K. Young, faculty advisers, who have never failed to cooperate and help the organization support Poly ' s ideals.

All the activities worked out well and proved highly beneficial. Among the activities were two conferences of great interest — one held in San Diego in the fall and one in Huntington in the spring. The first regional conference was held in January, at San Bernardino, with girls from Colton, Redlands, and Riverside in attendance. Several exchange programs were attended, and one was conducted here in February. The annual welfare drives at Thanksgiving and Christmas were well handled by Phyllis Button. Monthly assemblies were put on by Betty Lackey. The girls also arranged for Junior High Day refreshments; and new girls in school found their strange surroundings easier because of a Friendship Committee, headed by Naomi Coons. A great deal of the success must be credited to the girls ' adviser, our Dean of Girls, Dr. Mary Mendenhall, who was a good helper and a dear friend to all.
