1947 May Page 1


May 7th, 1947


The meeting was called to order at four-twenty by Don Packard, and the 
minutes were read and approved. Gloria Carey reported on the recent 
meeting with Mr. Arntezen concerning the Scholarship Society. Interest
obviously was lacking, so the organization was dropped during the period 
of low enrollment of students in school. Various types of pins were 
considered for presentation to eligible Board members. Action will not 
be taken until we have looked through some catalogues. We did not purcahse
the bicycles whcih were being considered in Seattle because the letter
of information which we were expecting was not reveived. Don Packard has 
ordered three four-man and two one-man war surplus life rafts which will 
be purchased at a great reduction, and will supplement the recreation 
equipment for rental on the same basis as the sleeping bags. Members of 
the band are now being measured, and the uniforms will definitely be 
ordered in the near future. Necessary speech and dramatic equipment may 
be purchased if Mr. Hoppe will present a requisiton to the business office.
Miss Kangley suggested that a student committee be appointed to make up a 
list of needed stage equipment and present it to Mr. Hope for approval. 
Don Packard announced that a real advancement has been made toward extending
the school's progran because an appropriation for the athletic budget has
been made from the G.I. fund. As a result of Don Packard's talk with Miss
Powers, late hour privileges have been granted to girls in order thath they
may see the end of the school baseball games. Halldor Karason and Don 
Packard will be going to Vancouver, B.C., this weekend to attend the Pacific 
Coast President's Association Conference. A motion was carried to allow the 
necessary expenses for this trip. Applications from Harold Hardman and Vern 
Matthews were read for the postion of editor of the WWCollegian next year. 
Selection between these two will be made at a special meeting early next
week so that the eligibility of the applicants may be determined in the
meantime. Other students elected to fill postions were: Gene Curtis, Business 
manager of WWCollegian; Betty McLeod, Editor of 1948 Klipsun; and Kathleen
Golly, nusiness manager of Klipsun. Don Packard saw Mr. Monoghan, manager 
of the Mt. Baker Theatre, regarding reduced theatre rates for college students,
but due to government regulations, this will not be possible. Perhaps verterns 
as ex-servicemen, may be permitted reductions after Mr. Monoghan talks
with the head of the Hamrick Everygreen theatre; his theatre belongs to that 
chain.

It was suggested that the newly elected members of the Board be invited to sit in
on the Board meetings to orient them with the procedures of the Board. Dr. Haggard
has invited all old and new members of the Board to his traditional salmon-bake
to be held on May 27. The insurance policy on Lakewood property has run out,
so the Board passed a motion to take out another and to increase it to $1000.
There is still a need for more drinking fountains and pencil sharpeners around
school. Mr. Earle wantes to have a meeting of the Co-op Board soon. Northwest
Intercollegiate Press Conference will be held at St. Martin's College next week,
and four members of the publication staff will represent our school there. The
Board passed a motion to allot the publications departement $55. for the trip
providing they present an expense account. The meeting adjourned at five-forty.
Patricia Loomis, secretary.

The meeting was called to order at four-ten by the president, and the minutes 
were read and approved. The bikes have been purchased because the necessary
information finally reached Mr. Buchanan. Monty Jones reported that the NIPCO
Conference has been postponed indefinitely. There was a discussion on the selection
of next year's WWCollegian editor, and Vern Matthews was elected for the 
posotion. The Campus Day committee requested permission to publish a special 
edition of the WWCollegian to publicize Campus Day. The motion was carried to 
allowe them to do this. Due to Kathleen Golly's ineligibility, the position of
Business Manager of the Klipsun will remain open until fall quarter. 
Monty Jones reported on the sports banquet. The tickets went on sale today, and 
plans are proceeding well. Don Packard reported upon the trip to the ASB Presidents'
conference which he and Halldor Karason attended in Vancouver. While there,
he investigated other schools' systems of paying salaries to the presidents
of student bodies. Action will be taken at next week's meeting. A letter was 
read concerning the National Student Organization's Constitutional Convention
to be held at the University of Wisconsin, August 30 to September 8, 1947.
