STUDENT CONTROL The Student Control, under the supervision of Miss Smith, has been doing such exceptionally fine work In mainfalning order In the traffic lanes between classes that the faculty has been entirely relieved of that responsibility. Of course fhey feel that a great measure of their success has been due to a very evident desire on the part of fhe sfudents to cooperate In the enforcement of every measure advanced for fhe best Interests of fhe school. Due to the opening of fhe gymnasium the force has been enlarged fo take charge of the pupils during games and dances. Since our assemblies are now held In the gymnasium Instead of fhe yard, they have assumed responsibility for the seating situation at the weekly gatherings, a task of no small proportions since the Student Body Is large and the seating capacity of the gymnasium limited. Two more lieutenants and two new sergeants have been added to the force. Experienced subsfifufes, who step Into a vacancy when a regular officer Is absent, have received the new appointments. The members of our Sfudent Control are doing an excellent piece of work and merif the praise of faculty and students. Officers: Francis Allen, Manuel Ambrose, Charles Apgar, Meta Baird, Frances Baldwin, Tom Barber, Don Bartlett, Floyd Becker, Dorothy Betaque, Eileen Blackwell, Orva Blaine (capt.), Roy Bobo, Andree Bonno, Roy Bradshaw (lieut.), Barbara Brightfield, Beverly Bruning, Allen Buckingham, Margaret Buck- ley, Donald Campbell, Chip Cheney, Naylor Cole, Jeannette Connick, Donald Cook, Shirley Cooke, Edward Coulon, Melba De Mingo, Aliceday Downing, Dick Duhring, Annabella Elkner, Clifford Elwood (lieut.), Lynn Farrar (capt.), Clarence Felt, Melvin Gielow (lieut.), Edward Gilman, Jay Guenthner, Edna Haggerty, Alvin Hambly, Holly Hammond, Harold Hibbard, Hisashi Higashi, Barbara Holmes, Ed- ward Howell, James Hoxie, Peggy Hurt, Mona Janney, Fred Johnson, Richard Johnson, Earl Jones, Mlt- suko Kambara, Marjorie Kight, Bernal Kirwan, Kathleen Kreitler, Ray Kruschke, Robert Laning, Delbert Laudel, Mary Kathryn Lee, Walter Lucas (sergt.), Elva Lynch, Malcolm Magruder, Virginia Merchant, Yvonne Michelson, Marylee Miller, Audrey Monahan, Carolyn Moore, Polly Morgan, James Moulton, Chester Murray, Audrey Jean Myers, Ronald Naess, Merritt Neale (lieut.), Harriette C ' Shea, Nancy Payne, Eleanor Peet, Frank Pepper, James Pepper, Beverly Perry, Fern Pruden (sergt.), Russell Rawson, Bob Ready (chief), Richard Reinhardt, Donald Remig, Edmund Richard (sergt.), Peggy Lee Robertson, Phillip Robinson, Rosalie Roderick, Leslie Rogers, Fred Rohde, Nicholas Rose, Mary Rosenkranz, Alma Roth, Erna Roth, Ruthelma Rowe (sergt.), Barbara Russell, Edith Savin, Dorothy Sayles, Ben Schuler, June Setterlund, Irving Short, Douglas Sinclair, Barbara Smith, James Smith, Betty Jane Soules, John Sproul, Arthur Starke, Elizabeth Stewart, Billy Thompson, Don Treadwell, Betty Udall, Ruth Vawter, Gordon Veaco, Robert Veaco, Jack Wallace, Stuart Watterson, Benjamin Weir, llene Wilkinson, Van Williams, Dorothy Wilson, Don Wood, Georgena Wood. STUDENT CONTROL COURT Improvement Is whaf we at Willard strive for at all times. With that thought ever to the fore, our sfudent court strives for Improvement and better traffic system In congested halls and corridors. The court continues to function under the supervision of three teachers who give generously of their time. The students feel that they are justly treated and have a wholesome respect for the organization. That the court Is a success Is proved by the constantly decreasing number of offenders who come within Its juris- diction. Considering the size of the school, there are very few sfudents arrested a second time. The court ' s officers are picked from oufstanding members of fhe Student Control and perform their duties with promptness and skill. A few of fhem, together with Judge Harrison, were heard on the Willard program at Station KRE recently. Taking one case, they exhibited the deftness of court judgment very efficiently. Reports from Interested parent listeners confirm our own belief that our Student Control Court Is an excellent way of handling school discipline. Court Staff: Jean Alexander, Babs Du Puy, Bill Gracey, Ruth Grove, Fred Holling, Frank Kruse, Jack McCullough, William McDonald, Arthur Morgan, Jean Paul, John Sproul, Gerald Whipple, Eleanor Jean Wood. Judges: Mr. Dunkum, Mr. Harrison, Mrs. Ivelsky. TRAFFIC RULES As you travel down the road of life, Obey the rules, keep to the right. Remember that others will travel this v ay. And courtesy ' ll make more pleasant a day. Jeannette Connick. » 9 «

W. B. A. Every Willard boy is aufomaflcally a member of the W. B. A. Each advisory has a representative at the executive meetings that are held under fhe guidance of Mr. Baxter and Mr. Harrison. The boys have been assisting most efficiently in the maintenance of order around the bleachers during the noon period. Now and then a boy skids off the road of school life and proves a menace to himself and others. It is then that the W. B. A. lends a hand and gives a tow in the right direction. Recently they participated in the program of welcome for the Low Sevens in our district who are expecting to enroll at Willard next term, and they played their parts most successfully in the afternoon plans of sightseeing, entertainment, and refreshments arranged for the pleasure of fhelr guests. The W. B. A. ' s aim at all times to do their best to keep school spirit on a high level and to make the life of the veteran Willardite as well as the newcomer a profitable and a happy one.
