Safety Council Installed Here
Following Governor Arthur B.
Langlie's recent state-wide safety
conference, Western Washington
college has instituted a permanent
faculty-student safety council for
the purpose of eliminating the dan­ger
of campus accidents through
traffic and other hazards. A sec­ondary
purpose is to promote aware­ness'of
safety problems among the
students who plan to teach in the
schools of the state.
Chairman of the safety committee
is David J. Burrell, who was safety
chairman at Queen Anne high
school, Seattle, before joining the
college faculty this fall. Faculty
members serving with him are Helen
L. Gillham, Campus school; Harvey
M. Gelder, Mathematics depart­ment;
John A. Liedtke, Science de­partment;
and Lorraine Powers,
Dean of Women. „
Students appointed to the safety
council for 1949-50 are: Phyllis Arm­strong
and Beverlee Burnaby, Seat­tle;
Patricia ©raves, Lynden; John
Holt and William Jones, Bellingham;
Edward Nelson, Ferndale; and Rich­ard
Valentine, Montesano.
Faculty Members
On New City
'Youth Committee'
: Meeting Wednesday evening with
the city council were three members
of Western Washington's faculty
who are on the city's "youth com­mittee."
This group, was picked by
the mayor and city council to "ex­plore
the reasons" for the city's cur­rent
juvenile problems and suggest
remedies. Dr. Paul Woodring, Don­ald
Irish, and Clyde W. McDonald
were asked to lend their services in
this behalf;
directory published by the University
of Alabama, contains the names of
the distinguished students of more
than 600 colleges and universities;
Each participating institution is as­signed
a quota based on its current
enrollment large enough to give a
well-rounded representation of the
student body and *small enough to
confine nominations to an excep­tional
group of students.
Nominations are submitted by a
campus committee which considers
scholarship, leadership, participation
in educational and extra-curricular
activities, and promise of future use­fulness.
Selections made oh this
basis serve as a means' of recogni­tion
of outstanding effort and
achievement.
