Through these meetings the students have an opportunity to acquire practical knowledge along with the theory of the classroom. Meet- ings are held twice a month. During the past year William D. Murphy, senior in the College, has served as president. Among the speakers who have recently appeared before the club arc: Harry Hoffman, president of the Milwaukee Advertising club; Whitney Eastman, recently elected president of the Milwaukee Association of Commerce; and Edward A. Filene, president of William Filene and Sons of Boston. ■ Another activity, which encourages closer relationship among the students and also a closer contact with business men, is the bi-annual publication of the Business Ad. Digest” sponsored by the Commerce club. This paper, edited the past year by Orlando Strobel and a selected staff reviews the activities and accomplishments of the College each semester. The January number of the Digest presented for the first time the Beta-Graph. This graph, a research study of the Beta Chapter of Beta Gamma Sigma, the national honorary commerce fraternity of the College, showed the trend of Milwaukee business as compared to that of the United States as a whole. Subsequent issues of the Digest will revise and keep the graph up to date. Besides the honorary fraternity, there arc two international professional commerce fraternities in the College: Delta Sigma Pi and Alpha Kappa Psi. The class presidents for the past year were: sen'or, William E. Monroe; junior, James Fen-Ion; sophomore, Irwin Saager; freshman, Robert Jacobs. 1 9 Pace

The School was opened on September 26, 1894 and it has been rated a Class A institution since 1917 when the first official classification of dental schools was made by the Dental Education Council of America. Four new laboratories were made available to the dental students this year with the opening of the new Marquette School of Medicine. The medical and dental buildings arc now joined so that the two units arc really housed in one large modernly appointed building. Thus there is made possible the fullest degree of educational co-operation between the School of Medicine and the Dental school, and the close association of the two faculties and the student bodies creates an understanding of the inter-relationship and of the common problems of the professions of dentistry and medicine. For 31 of its 39 years of existence, the Dental school has been directed by Dean Henry L. Banzhaf, who has gained world-wide recognition as an authority on dental education. A further honor was conferred upon Dean Banzhaf this year with his election for the second time as president of the Dental Educational Council of America. The regent of the Dental school for the past six years has been the Rev. Anthony F. Berens, S.J. Dr. George W.
