4 ' fl aiiawidlud The Foreign Relations Club of Lincoln Vollege is made up of students who are enrolled in one or more of the langiiage classes during- the year. This is another of the active groups holding meetings regularly throughout the year. At the first meeting' of the club, the follow- ing- officers were elected: president, Bonita Grahanig vice-president, Helen Fisher, secre- tary-treasurer, .lean Sheplerg and the adviser, Miss Josephine Hardy. The club meetings were held on every sec- ond and fourth Thursday of the month. During the latter part of November and the first part of December, several members gave brief suin- niaries of the speeches given by the speakers on the Institute of International Understanding- being' held at the Dolleg-e and sponsored by the Rotary Club. Because the speeches given in this series dealt chiefly with our relationships with other countries of the world, they made excellent topics for discussion in the Foreign Relations tllub meetings. The high-spot of the month of December was the Christmas party which was held at 12:00 noon on December 16. This was in the form of a noon luncheon with entertainment following. U At the last two meetings of the club, held April 6 and 27, Hardy told the group about her trip abroad before the First VVorld XVar, describing' the countries visited, the peo- ple, and types of entertainment found there. The yearts activities of the club were cul- minated with a pienie which was held on May 4. - BY GRAHAM Left to Right-First row: Jane Turner, Helen Twomey, Helen Fisher, Jean Shepler, Mary Ellen Langan.
