TH ody commissioners, from the very first of the term, are actively at work. A few days after registration, the Howdy Hop is held, which serves to introduce the new members to the rest of the student body and begin the semester in a social way. Other dances are sponsored from time to time. ranging from the penny hops to the big affairs of the season, the Alpha-Beta dance and the Graduation dance. Phonograph records of the latest popular tunes are played, and recently experiments with the Professor Quiz and the Man On the Street ideas have proved popular on the A.S.B.-sponsored noon broadcasts. One of the big events of the spring season is the May carnival. Booths are sponsored by the different clubs of the school and competition is great. Some clubs choose games and contestsg others serve refresh- ments. Supervising these activities is the Associated Stu- dent Body commission, functioning so quietly that its presence is almost forgotten. Santa Monica students elect a group which serves them, the school, and the community in a way of which all may be proud. E STUDENT b Spring Marge Crandall A.W.S.

PRIOR TO I938, the men students at Santa Monica junior Colle had no organization of their own. They were represent dent body commission by an officer k tive. ln the tall of th ilar to ge ed on the stu- nown as the Men's Representa- at year, the men decided to for ' the Associated Women Stude Dean of Men, as the' ' organ' ' m a society sim- nts, and with Mr. Ruenitz, the lr adviser, they made preparations for the new ization. A constitution was drawn up and the first election of officers was held. For their first project, the men worked for a bungalow, to be used for both study and relaxation. When the building was ready, the men's lockers were moved from the old Field House into these new quarters: tables, comfortable chairs and a radio were addedg and the Men's Bungalow soon became a popular place. h Since that time, the AMS has cooperated with the AWS and the ASB in promoting the interests of the Santa Monica student body, as well as carrying on activities designed solely for the men.
