Athletes relax after hard work at painting the P. E. cabin walls. P. E. CLUB MEMBERS PAINT CABIN WALLS The P. E. Club, an energetic horde in brown shorts, has turned to the fine art of painting, transforming in the process the club cabin on the lake. To speed up work, regular meetings as well as many overnight sessions were held in the cabin, all spare time being devoted to the brush. The club program for the year featured the history of sports. Special programs were given over to each of the sports in which colleges partici- pate. Sport history was used as the theme for the annual sports day, at which time a movie on basketball was presented. During spring vacation, the club sent its president as a delegate to the national physical education conference at Berkeley, California. Dorothy Klupping served as program chairman during the year.

Madrigal Club, composed of music majors and other lovers of song, meets for an hour Monday and Thursday evenings to sing — for the pure enjoyment of singing, and to prepare entertainment for auditors. Under the leadership of Mr. Cleeland, the club appeared at Thanksgiving and Christmas vespers. Easter vespers and the annual Spring Concert on March 20 were di- rected by Mr. Strickler.
