fs Student Body Prexy Hans Wolfe Historian Pat Ussery Secretary Marjorie Menu A S. U. N. Much of the credit for the suc- cessful completion of the 1945-47 school year should go to A. S. U. N. President Hans Wolfe. Wolfe realized the necessity of a better student administration and through his efforts many re- visions Were made to benefit the Greatly increased enrollment. During his term of office there was a revival of many Campus traditions, refinement and revi- sion of the A. S. U. N. constitu- tion, and the reactivation of dor- mant Campus organizations. He was instrumental in forming the A. S. U. N. Improvement Com- mittee and the one-Way parking system, and as presiding officer at student Senate meetings he undertook the clarification of the athletic award point system. Nevada took a more active par- ticipation in Coast student con- ferences, With President Wolfe attending the Pacific gathering at Vancouver, British Columbia. Over the Mississippi affair, when Nevada cancelled a game with Mississippi State rather than not use her two Negro stars, the local Campus became involved in several inter-racial discussions ....

A Campus one-Way street to expedite traffic, divorcing the Wolves Frolic from the Homecom- ing celebration, a ban on indiscriminate Campus soliciting, and lengthening of the assembly periods were among resolutions passed by the A. S. U. N. Senate this year. The Wolves Frolic will now be held at a later date, since Homecoming comes too early in the fall semester to properly prepare the skits. All Campus organizations which desire to solicit funds must have approval from the Senate executive committee, and individuals, not groups, must be contacted to contribute to fund drives. Four regular one-hour A. S. U. N. assemblies per semester Were scheduled, no class to be dismissed more than once. A new social group, the Highlanders, living in veterans' quarters, was granted representation in the Senate. This governing body also backed the Student lmprovement Committee, which fought for additional funds from the state legislature. Two meetings with the Administrative Council to talk over mutual student- faculty problems were held during the year. Presiding over all A. S. U. N. Senate sessions was l-lans Wolfe, student body president. Senate members gather after a Wednesday meeting it? ski wt rx z-is ' . S. U. N - S NATE
