TV oar Amy: Does school teaching keep you as busy as ever? I ' ve found time to read little. I ' ve just finished reading King of the Jews last nite. Do you re- member it was the book Wilma Jean reviewed for us at our Y. W. cabinet meeting at Rach- el ' s back in Juco days. I guess that got me started thinking about our Y. W. meetings. I ' ve had so many occasions to use the ideas I got in our club . If I only knew Dolly ' s or Rachel ' s addresses, I ' d send for some of the music we used to sing. Our Sunday School Class gave a masquerade box supper last week and I copied the Idea from orie as a way of making mon- I can still see the Dean as Goliath the Giant and Lady Nix- on. Wilma ' s posters always helped to advertise our parties. Helen now is sec. for the Pres. of Wichita U. June knew every girl in school and she Iways remembered to send them cards if they were out of school. Wouldn ' t it be fun to be back at Juco and see Miss Mil- ford and Miss Wrestler? ■ Hi ey The meetings which are most outstand- ing in my mind were the Thanksgiving Dinner at the Methodist Church, the Soup Supper, the meeting on Lent, and the Valentine Exchange. I always marveled at the way all the girls took part and made the meetings go over. used to think 55 or 40 girls a good group but I suppose they have 75 or 100 by now. I wonder how they are getting along with the commissions. Everyone seemed very much interested in them when we graduated. Wasn ' t it too bad that we couldn ' t stay and help them prepare for the conference the year after we graduated. Here I ' ve raved on and on. Write and tell me about any of the girls you hear from. Lovingly yours, Alice Gfeller

Vcuislty This year has been one of very marked advance for the Var- sity Club. The club ' s membership was boosted considerably last fall with the entrance of the boys who made letters in football. Then, after moving into the new school building, the club set a definite time for meetings and since then the meetings have been well attended and very interesting. The Varsity Club elected new officers for the second semes- ter and they have been largely responsible for promoting more interest in the club. The officers are: Robert Lewis, presi- dent; J. Harland Smith, secretary-treasurer; Max Ferguson, ser- gent-at-arms; and Coach Roberts, sponsor. The first highlight of the Varsity Club program for this year was the fall banquet held December 11. This gala affair was followed by the Varsity Club — E Club basketball game of Mar. 16. That night the excited spectators who filled the building saw the Varsity Club rise to the height of its power by trimming the E Club in a close game. The final highlight, of the year for the club is the Spring Varsity Club Banquet. The goal the Varsity Club is striving for is the advance- ment of athletics and good sportsmanship in E. J. C— C.

The Young Men ' s Chris- tian Association is a union of students and faculty members for the purpose of creating, and maintaining high standards of Chri stian ideals throughout our school and community. About thirty men as active members accepted this responsi- bility, and received their membership in the national Y. M. C. A. A variety of meetings was made possible through the good work of cabinet members. They all seemed to be untiring in their efforts to further the program of the as- sociation. Kenneth Locke, as president of the association, proved a real leader. Clarence Kerns was responsible for an evening of informal fun at an election party . Mel- vin Murphy saw to it that we were entertained with gDod music at all our meetings and organ- ized a quartette. Be cause Clarence Borger was enthusiastic we able to present and church services at near by towns. Good publicity, contributed by Jimmie Baker helped to make the organ- ization an outstanding one. Gilbert Cherryholmes repre- sented the association in the Student Council, Loren James proved a big helo with his work in devotion. And without Mr. Dick ' s un- erring advice and the Dean ' s splendid cooperation, we could never have accomplished so much. were community One of the biggest steps taken this year was the organization of the Student Christian Movement. This work calls for study of local, na- tional, and international problems of vital interest to all students. This movement is sponsored jointly by the Y. W. C. A. and the Y. M. C. A. — Kenneth Locke
