WILLARD COURT WILLARD JUNIOR TRAFFIC POLICE BULWARKS OF LIBERTY La- v s are the very bulwarks of liberty. They define every man’s rights, and stand between, and defend the individual liberties of all men.” The great majority of Willard students is of this opinion, and Willard Court aims to impress this fact upon those who appear before it. Some Willardites, however, have not been convinced of the value of the statement, and Willard Court has been kept busy. Chief Clerk Wolfe states that the charges most frequently appearing on the records are discourtesy, speeding, and disobeying signals. Nothing costs less or is more valuable to the individual himself than civility, and traffic laws of school and community are for the safety of all. Keep these facts in mind, fellow students, and lighten the labors of our judges, Mrs. Ivelsky and Mr. Harrison, who have served us so well and faithfully throughout the term. Court Officers: Rafael Ahlgren (Sergt. at Arms), Alvan Altman (Sergt. at Arms), Melvin Bacharach (Clerk), Stanley Behrends (Detention Clerk), Virginia Berg (Sergt. at Arms) , Jane Bickel (Sergt. at Arms) , Richard Dorst (Detention Clerk) , William laconetti (Sergt. at Arms), Cornelia Levis (Sergt. at Arms), Graham Moody (Clerk), John Oshida (Sergt. at Arms), Donald Stewart (Bailiff), Frank White (Bailiff), Jack Wolfe (Chief Clerk) . « 8 »

TO WILLARD Oh great and noble Willard High, We’ll think of you as years roll by, And, though a dreary day may pass. You in our hearts will always last. This fortress that we build today Will never crumble or decay. To make the finest school out West, Then we must try to do our best. When we are striving for the right. Then we are truly Willardites. Bruce Salomon TO THE CITIZENS OF WILLARD: Some one has said, Cooperation means so working that others may work with you.” Our school organization, with its emphasis on personal responsibility, promotes better citi- zenship as well as a more complete socialization of the individual citizen. These goals of student self-government can only be met as you strive to work so that others may work C. K. Haves, Prmrip., . THE WILLARD SENATE The Senate, the most recent arm of government at Willard and the branch that com- pletes the three-point governmental system of the school, has had a very busy term. Vice- President Wayne Hooper has presided at the Senate and has guided it well. Miss Chace has been the sponsor and through her help and encouragement the Senate has always moved forward even when the going was a little rough. With our new form of Student Council becoming effective the beginning of this term, another chance for the Senate to be felt in school affairs was scored when the head of the Senate was included in the new Council. This tieup was an asset to both bodies. Because of the many changes in our form of student government since the signing of Willard’s first constitution, it became necessary for the school to have a new one. For that purpose President Schauppner early in the term appointed a committee that started at once to draft a new constitution, and in a short time it presented its plan to the Student Council. With a few minor changes the Council approved the constitution as presented by the com- mittee and sent it to the Senate. There it was debated and passed on by the senators to their respective advisories for discussion. It was then referred back to the Senate with the remarks and questions submitted by the different advisories. The remainder of the term was mainly devoted to rewording parts of the document and shaping it for final passage and submission to President Schauppner and Principal Hayes. The Willard Senate may well be proud of its term’s work. Senate: Richard Bartholomew, Wesley Bowen, Winifred Burnham, Nadine Chester- man, David Cole, Irene Cooley, Jean Davies, Nancy Gloor, John Grosh, Nola Hansen, Nancy Haven, Dick Horne, Ray Kruschke, Elizabeth Marshall, George Moller, Eleanor Moore, Marjorie Morrow.

STUDENT COUNCIL WILLARD SENATE WILLARD JUNIOR TRAFFIC POLICE The cooperation of the students with the Junior Traffic Police has meant another perfect safety record for Willard this term. Monday and Friday are drill days for Willard’s traffic force, and they have turned out to be a crack” squad both in drill and service. They have recently taken over the Flag Raising on Monday mornings. For the first time this semester three representatives from each patrol in Berkeley were elected by their fellow officers for official inspection by members of the local and state police departments. The inspection was held in San Francisco. Willard was represented by Sergt. Maj. Richberger, Sergt. Le Quatte, and Sergt. Bowen. At the annual review of the Junior Traffic Police of Berkeley held on Edwards Field, Willard again made an excellent showing. Thanks and praise are due Mr. Christensen, who has spared neither time nor effort as director to prepare Willard’s Junior Traffic Patrol for the efficient service they have rendered the school and community this year.
