The past history of the college shows that this accomplish- ment is something worthwhile, as it has been most difficult to arouse in the students the idea of the importance of these student body assemblies. School talent chiefly was portrayed but several talented people in the community were obtained to add variance to the programs, Outstanding also this last semester was the fact that the elective members of the Com- mission were composed entirely of men. The men outnumber the women in general enrollment but it is perhaps unfortunate that the women are not represented on the Commission by one of their own group. A woman's point of view is--a woman's point of view. It is hoped that the earlier precedent of a mixed Commission will guide our selections. The Santa Monica Junior College is proud of its government. With Dr. Sandmeyer to aid with his willing counsel, the Corsair crew feel that the student affairs are wisely guided.

It is com- posed of seven elective members: President, Vice-President, and Commissioners of Records, Finance, Publications, Arts, and Athletics. The President of the A. W. S. is allowed to sit in on Commission meetings. Any funds granted to various organizations must necessarily be sanctioned by these members. , During the first semester this year the Commission successfully carried the arduous bur- dens that fell to it. Its social affairs sparkled with charm, and financial help was given to the worthy college calls. The second semester was even more successful than the iirst. A few new precedents were set by this last group of students. Most outstanding was the auspicious fact of carrying out, without fail, bi-weekly assemblies that were attended not by a small per cent of the student

ZO 4 The SPIN COUNCIL GF CLUB PRESIDENTS iDOROTHY MURRAY, of the graduating class of 1931, organized the Presidents' Club and was its first president. The Commissioner of Arts, to which position she was popularly elected, becomes automatically the head of the Presidents' Club. X . The Council of Club Presidents is a semi-official organization composed of the head of- ficers of all student organizations, under the leadership of the Commissioner of Arts. Its prin- cipal function has been to prevent conflicts in the social program of the college and to coor- dinate the activities of the students. The Council chooses one of its number to serve on the Committee on Ceremonies, which body supervises all of the social, dramatic, forensic, and other activities sponsored by the Student Body and not otherwise provided for. Duska Kirkpatrick served as the second supervisor of the Presidents' Club during the first half of the year at which time she was succeeded by Clyde Grant. I X I I X XX im 't N ' ay,-
