10 The Chipmunk SENIOR CONTROL BOARD The Senior Control Board was organized in 1931, under the super- vision of Coach Emery Curtice. It was originally the “Traffic Squad”, with the duty of merely regulating hall traffic; but the duties of the newer organization have so widened as to include within its jurisdic- tion anything detrimental to the school. This group takes care of the conduct of the students at any school function, such as a free show, a basketball game or a dance The membership consists of twenty seniors and ten juniors, the juniors automatically remaining members in their senior year. The halls are divided into ten posts, and for the five minutes be- tween classes a Senior Control member stands at each station to direct traffic. Any offender is summoned to appear before the committee by white slips stating the place and time. He is brought before the board and his offense stated. If he is proven quilty he is sentenced and put under the charge of a Board member, who attends to the carrying out of the offender’s penalty. It is the aim of these students to make the attitude and conduct of our students a model for other schools. Many other schools of small student bodies have never satisfactorily solved the problems the Senior Control faces It is inevitable that, as the student body comes to more and more appreciate the aims and ideals of this organization and to co-operate for its success, the Senior Control will reach its final goal.

These positions were filled this year by Bill Barry and Beatrice Martin, to the satisfaction of the entire school. These officers are elected by the active members of the student body and they serve for one school year. EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE All student body officers automatically become members of the Executive committee, which has as additional membership one or more representatives chosen by the members of each class. The seventh, eighth and ninth grades each have one representative, the tenth and eleventh grades have two, and the twelfth grade three.

The Chipmunk 11 ART CLUB The Art Club was organized early this year, in order that all members might get their Christmas cards made before vacation. They made their own designs, cut the linoleum blocks, and then printed their cards. Some were experts in the line of finishing and filled several outside orders for Christmas cards. Meetings were held every Wednesday evening from 7 :30 to 8:30 until Night School started, when the meetings were discontinued for the rest of the year. A few members of the Club have done work for the Annual Staff, and have made many posters for class parties and other activities. INTERNATIONAL CLUB The International Club is the only Junior High club of the school. It is under the supervision of Miss Kettlewell. The purpose of the group is to acquaint its members with the ideas, customs, beliefs, and habits of foreign countries. The countries with which the members have communicated are Italy, South Wales, Japan, Holland, Germany, England, Spain, France, and Ireland. Many candy sales were given during the noon hours at school this year, together with a sale at one of the football games. A delegate, Jimmy Jacobsen, was sent to the International Con- vention in San Francisco. The advisor was also able to attend. This club is well supported by the Junior High, since it is very interesting and worth while. OFFICERS President ...........................................
