Bill Cook Originally formed in 1946, shortly after Vanport Extension Center was founded, the Barrister club was formed to render service to the school and to give its members a part in student activities. It is an organiza tion composed primarily of pre­ law majors. With a membership of 18, the Barristers' first activity was the election of their candidate for Homecoming queen. Irene Landstrom was their unanimous choice. The "legal eagles" went all out in this campaign and climaxed it with a banquet • honoring Irene. One of the club's largest social events of the year was the annual Christmas party at Bill Cooks residence. Just as suc­ cessful was the "Naughty Nineties" costume dance held in conjunction with an all school carnival. The proceeds were given to the World Student Service Fund. The Barristers have also taken an active part in intramural activities. At present they have football. basketball, bowling and pool teams. In the political field, Barrister Don Buss was elected Student Body president for the Spring term of 1950 in the Student Body elections. 164 Brock DlxOD
