ASSOCIATED STUDENT BODY To interpret and enforce the con- stitution drawn up for South Pasadena High School is the duty of the seven persons who make up the commission. Each year these seven are elected by the student body to represent them in matters pertaining to school life, and to be re- sponsible for the student body activities. 1 This year Lowell Whiteman proved to be one of our very flnest commissioner- l generals. The duties of this office are to preside over all commissionefs meetings l and student body assemblies. Lowell, besides arranging many interesting assem- blies, maintained and upheld, to the highest degree, the traditions of our school. E Jane Leeds served as commissioner of publicity, faithfully keeping the min- utes of all student body and commissioners meetings. She furnished weekly ac counts of all Associated Student Body activities to various newspapers, and kept S. P. H. S. in the public eye. The commissioner of athletics, Luther Hiltner, aided by Mr. James R. Carpen- ter, supervised the athletic activities of the school. It was also his job to take charge of the annual assembly at which athletic awards are made. l ' Betty Ford and Larry Thompson were commissioners of girls and boys re- l spectively. Besides being members of the commission, they were presidents of the Girls League and the Boys League, and presided over all meetings of thOSe or- ganizations. Miss Jessie T. Oldt is dean of the girls and adviser to the Girls, League, and Mr. Elmer J. Erickson, dean and adviser to the Boys, League. l l One of the newest ofhces in student body government is that of commissioner l of interior. This experiment was begun in the fall of 35, and because of the fine l work of Barbara Dean, holder of the ofhce, it has ceased to be an experiment and has become a necessity. Barbarak job was to see that the grounds were kept l in trim, to supervise new decoration projects, and be responsible for beautification l of the school in general. l i The exacting job of handling A. S. B. hnances was handled very echiently by Martha Johnston, second girl to hold the position of Commissioner of Finance in the history of the school. Martha handled all checks to go out of the school, l and managed all ticket sales, including plays, dances and A. S. st. t Although they have no direct vote on questions that do not concern their l classes, Bill Love, Dick DeGolia, Tom Judd and Dick Newton, freshman, sopho- more, junior and senior presidents, are automatically ex-oH'icio members of the commission. It is their duty to consider the interests of their class in regard to certain questions that come up before the board. W13
