Quting Club In spite of wartime difficulties this, the seventh year of the Outing Club was one of activity and adventure. The influx of new freshmen sent the membership up to forty, and their continued efforts together with those of the old members have kept the club on safe ground financially. Still spending afternoons cutting wood and felling trees, the club has filled orders for fire- wood and kindling all over town and even to Mercer. Old lvory, the power saw, so named because it floats has been a great help in speeding up the work program, and Big Mac, the truck, has even been able to operate on the snow covered roads of a rugged Grove City winter. Hard work has its compensations, though, as anyone will know who has spent a weekend at the club cabin near Bullion. Not only are the usual outdoor sports-hiking, skiing, swim- ming, and tobogganing-enjoyed, but indoor activities as well are features of a regular week- end of fun, Square dancing, pingpong, fireside songfests, or just playing the vic and reading round out the cIub's program of recreation, meditation, relaxation. Indoor fun is even more enjoyable this year since the addition of rock-wool insulation and storm windows. Oth- er improvements to the cabin and its surround- ings include a library which was begun by sev- eral contributions from alumni and friends, the blazing and clearing of a new trial, the Purple Trail which has the added attraction of a na- Page Sixty-six

Women's Athletic Association The Women's Athletic Association has been one of the most active girls' organizations on the Cirove City campus since the club was or- ganized in 1932. lt was formed with the idea of promoting health, sportsmanship, and loy- alty among the students, and creating a more active interest in the various girls' sports. The past few years have presented a great many problems to the Association by way of finding a suitable schedule for work in the gym and swimming pool, but a definite schedule was planned this year for making Thursday the official W. A. A. sports day as far as games in the gym were concerned. The year began with the annual picnic out at Community Park. One of the highlights of the winter season was the style show- Christ mas Holiday-l944 -which featured Grove City co-eds modeling clothes from the Stxouss Hirshberg Company in Youngstown, Ohio. This style show came as a climax to the an- nual Posture Week and the models were chosen from the finalists in the posture con- test. The W. A. A. as a whole was divided into smaller clubs, each of which was devoted to one particular sport. Basketball, bowling, ping pong, swimming, tennis, archery, and hockey were the main sports of the year. The hockey team attended a play day at Allegheny and lived up to the true C-rover spirit of coming cut on top. lt was a fight between the MAP and the Colonial champions for top honors in the ping pong tournament, and every Thurs- day afternoon saw a fast basketball game be- tween the freshmen and the upperclassmen or between the representatives of the differ- ent organizations on campus. The Turtle Club came into existence again after a few years absence with a stiffer list of requirements but the same amount of fun. The May Day pageant climaxed a year of fun and good fellowship under the guidance of our faculty advisors, Miss Esther Post and Miss Betty Meyer. ' Page Sixty-four
