CLUB The women ' s literary society has again maintained its place on McKendree ' s campus as one of the more prominent organiza- tions. During the regular weekly meetings its members have enjoyed many interesting and worthwhile programs. The highlights of its successful year were two initiations, the Amanda Glen Declamation Contest, and several open sessions, including the traditional Sadie Hawkins ' session. The McKendree Ex-G. I. Club opened its fourth semester of activity in the fall of 1947. Social meetings were held and fur- ther meetings and activities were planned for the second semester. Dean Van Winkle, a former Major in the United States Corps of Chaplains, was given an honorary membership in the organ- ization. McKENDREE EX-G. I. CLUB FIRST ROW (left to right): H. Affsprung, A.

PLATONIAN LITERARY SOCIETY Plato, like our College, has prepared and continues to prepare for a great future. As has always been her tradition, she has strived to improve as an organization. Quietly, without public display or show, she has improved and benefited during the past year. Not only has she benefited and improved as an organization but also in her desire to make the Platonian Society in the minds of McKendreans that which Plato is among philosophers. PHILOSOPHIAN LITERARY SOCIETY Philo, with one of its largest memberships in the history of the society, continued in its one hundred and eleventh year in grand style. Open sessions, The Glenn McCormack Oratorical Contest, and various selected closed sessions highlighted the year ' s ac- tivities. Money was donated by both alumni and student Philosophians to redecorate the Old Hal l. As an eventful year draws to a close, the star in Philo Hall is still shining brightly.
