Since 1900, there have been many improvements, but College Government does not rest upon its laurels, for, as old problems are solved, new ones arise. The aim of student government is not only to work out a better system of government, but also to keep offering more opportunities to the students for earnest study and free time that tend toward a richer life. If College Government has a sense of humor and is happy, friendly, hard-working, and humble, its influence will spread by contagion. This is our goal.

At Wellesley, it is handled by the Press Board, a group of approximately thirty students, headed by a director, two assistants, and a student chairman. Through their efforts, news and pictures of campus events are sent to home towns, or to local papers. Having articles appear in the New York Times, earning an occasional pay check, and receiving practical training make Press Board an exciting and valuable experience. 18 OJb O. CjdA c

M eu 4 ' Tho sensational scoops were lew and far between — no murders al all — the News did its best this year in the world of collegiate journalism — silhouetting outstanding campus figures, reportinglectures, and splurg- ing with pages of snapshots and giant type for Proms and Wellesley Formals. A few campaigns of vary- ing success were launched in the editorial columns, while Free Press sizzled with readers ' controversies. W hile the editors were covered with glory and printers ' ink, the business board played a vital role. This year ' s board is very proud of the fact that it has dispelled many doubts about students reading ads. They read them all right, as one advertiser, who questioned this, found out, at the expense of several hundred free plants given to all those who saw his notice. The business board ' s work in the Vil is not in vain, and, in- cidentally, as yet, no bottle of red ink has been added to its expendi- tures.
