The absence of a chess club for one term produced a general demand for its revival. That there was such a demand is proven by the fact that there are over twenty active members in the club, perhaps the largest membership in its history. Among the members there exists a new spirit of cooperation and a deep interest in the art of chess. The members have been prompt in the payment of dues and regular in their attendance. This term's team was composed of Seymour Adler, Captain, Onver Mahadeen, James Mahadeen, Malvin Finklestein, and George Kelly. The team's most notable victory was a 4 to 1 conquest of Dickinson. To the members of the graduating class of January, 1934, the Lincoln Chess Club extends its heartiest congratulations. C'R9C'75 The String Pullers Charles Frisch .......... .....,..,........

F acuity Adviser The ship of the Senate has been piloted through much rough sailing this term-one of the worst, in fact, of its career. It was only through the efforts of a small group of enthusiasts aided by its faculty adviser, Mr. Wilson, that the club was able to survive. However, the worst has been rided over, and the teams composed of Bernard Rothenberg, Seymour Adler, Malvin Finkelstein, Jack Schimel, Seymour Berman, John Cooke, Philip Wagner, and Ray Constan- tian participated in very interesting debates. In spite of the small membership this term, all the debates carried on, tended to sponsor an interest in debating and further interest in society. To the members of the graduating class of January, 1934, the Senate extends its heartiest congratulations to best wishes for future success. 659611 The Bio-Chem Club Howard Gladscein .......... .,...,..,., . ...President Miriam Schnitzer ...,,.... ....,.. . .Vice-President Walter Tribisiner ...,,... .....,....,.....,.
