THE FlflflnCE BORRD The difficult task of deciding upon the budget for student organization, and the al- lotment of funds for special needs falls to the Finance Board. It requires an open mind and an understanding of die interests of both the students and the administration. THE ELECTIOnS BORRD There is never a time in the spring when this group isn ' t busily working away, unknown to the majority of the student body. Scott and her cohorts do much more than make die post- ers that identify the candidates for each elec- tion. For weeks before election days, the committee checks on the candidates ' records, and after giving approval, checks all the names on petitions for validity. We give credit to a job well done.

student government associatioi JUDICIAL BORRD State your case, please, begins Chief Justice Kirby as the defendant takes her seat facing the nine black- cloaked members of the Judicial Board. The judges wear their most becoming austere expressions — as a rule, but, occasionally, the situation has been known to develop comic tendencies, and it has been said the Judy Board has smiled! The cases are tried in the Judicial Board room of the Alumnae House. Every Monday night at 7:30 the Board meets around a long, green-topped, horse shoe table. A house president will come in and present the case of the student to be questioned. Behind closed doors the mem- bers of the Board debate each case and many times this question comes into the discussion. Was it a case of gross carelessness or was it a deliberate defiance of the honor code of the cam- pus? Each case is considered individually, and the penalties are decided on the basis of what will help to strengthen the honor of this particular person. Nancy Kirby, as president of student government, acts as chairman of the Board. Betty Styron, who is secretary of student government acts as clerk of the court. Miss Alexander with years of legal f experience to her credit sees to it that the Quality of Mercy is not strained or neglected. Carolyn Harward, Mary Moling Kirkman, Evelyn Anderson, Betty Styron, Nancy Kirby, Claire McRoberts, Mary King, Frances Bryant, Irma Siceloff, Miss Alexander. Where power lies. ♦ 20

counselors and house OW Ljuidin cJLlakh Winfield — Mill Geise, Margaret Johnson. Who ' s the center of life in your residence hall . . . the girl who makes all the wheels run smoothly? Why, it ' s your house president, of course. You know her . . . the attractive girl who lives in 201 who is always ready to sympa- thize, to hear your complaints and suggestions, and sometimes to scold when things get too rough . . . who is anxious to answer questions, carry your ideas to legislature, bring you reports on the campus at house meetings ... the girl who plans the parties you want, the open houses, who helps you dress for that big dance, who has the amplifier fixed and who fills in when you need a fourth for bridge . . . the emergency gal who burns her light late because she ' s been doing things for us, from calling the plumber to helping compose that first letter to your prospective mother-in-law. Sure, you know her . . . there ' s one in every dorm . . . she ' s your friend. And how about your counselor? Those friendly advisers we have to go to when all else fails . . . when we want some worthwhile chats, and per- missions for all-important week-ends . . . Many of our old friends returned to the campus to guide us this year: Mrs. Funderburk, Miss Martin, Miss Grogan, Mrs. Hunter, Mrs. Carter, Miss Taylor, Miss Giese, Miss Garner, North Spencer- Mn. Kathi, Jo Whitley. New Guilford — Min Martin. Doris McRoberts. Woman ' s — Miss Sberuin, Alison Rice.
