Rollins. Absent: Betty Melendrez. Outstanding for its promotion of friendship and understanding between the students and faculty, the Girls' Board of Hearing plays a significant part at University l-ligh School. The purpose of this board is to help the girls with their prob- lemsg to discuss each situation thoroughly and sensibly, with all members of the board contributing constructive view- points of the problem and how it can be solved. ln this way a broader knowledge of the case is obtained, enabling the decision rendered to be just and helpful in every way. This method of straightening out difficulties tends toward making a more co-operative student body. Sponsored by Mrs. Lombardi and headed in the fall by Katherine Moore, in the spring by Patsy Weiss, the board has competently carried out its duties. The girls who served on the board this year proved them- selves more than worthy of the responsibility which was given to them. The fine quality of the service the board gave was an essential factor in promoting harmony in our community. i8 6

Commis- sioner of Publicity, Clarence Boyle, alias C. B., besides breaking up the Commissioners' meet- ings with his wit and bodily faux pas left lit- tle to be wished for by his handling of the publicity. His most memorable performance bears repeating: C. B. rose to make a motion, and in his haste stepped in the wastebasket. The resulting melee found Boyle and his mo- tion in a horizontal dilemma, to the delight of the Commissioners present. Bill Irish O'Brien, a more agile and diminutive officer, worked long and unceasingly to press-agent the events in which University participated, namely, Warrior campaign, Senior play, and the Chieftain campaign, achieving the pleas- ing results of selling more subscriptions and more tickets than ever before. Ever-smiling Bert Perkins, Commissioner of Student Em- ployment, may point with deserved pride to the new tables which now grace our cafeteria. Bill Dixon, in the same office, worked to keep University gainfully employed. Likable john- ny Bush gave Hearst a scare when the circula- tion of the Warrior jumped to a new high through his efforts as Commissioner of Pub- lications. johnny also got those sharp Com- missioner pins. lim Mathis, while he didn't say boo to any tycoon of the gazettes, did sell plenty of Chieftains. The board was graced by two competent Commissioners of Athletics, Lloyd Ellis and Frank Moulton, in that chron- ological order. Lloyd handled the season tick- ets and both took charge of their respective awards assembly and rallies. Two special awards should go to Sheila Nelson, and Kay Leyden, who, as Commissioners of Records, ticked off the minutes without missing a beat. Money for carrying on student body activities was raised by a few well-chosen pay assem- blies, chiefly dramatic and musical, thereby combining education with entertainment. The Toy Loan assembly, at which the contribution was purely voluntary, was the most successful of all, l,5OO toys and a sum of thirty-two dol- lars being collected. Supporting their chosen leaders, the entire student body enjoyed mak- ing University high a going concern, sparked by that intangible phenomenon known as school spirit. l7
