TI' E GQWEUBNME AS KDCUA UCQN When is the next dance or movie? What is being done about overtime and posting our half-days? These are matters of business at the monthly mass-meeting ofthe Cooperatve Government Association, Each month the Executive Council, composed ofthe elected officers of the association and the pres- idents of each class, have a dinner in the gymnasium. Later, over coffee cups in our directors attractive apartment, the students and faculty representatives discuss problems of vvorlr, residence life, and recreation. Rulings, announcements, and rectification of complaints are then presented at the mass meeting, which every capped student attends. Under the leadership of Amanda Rainis and Puth Coppedge, the Cooperative GovernmentAssocia- tion can loolc baclc on such constructive accomplishments as better lighting in the library, and more liberal residence visiting rules. Through the Associations efforts, the educaional facilities and worlc- ing conditions in diet school have been improved. The informal dances initiated by Miss Baltlte have become an established part of social life atReese, So have projects of the Senior Scholarship Fundi the candy sales and Friday night movies, In the future our hope for the Association is that it may become increasingly democratic and serve as an introduction to participation in professional organizations, MISS AMANDA RAINIS MISS RUTH COPPEDGE President Vice-President

-iii Seated at the piano Miss Lois Harper, Director. Always an outstanding feature of important Michael Reese functions is the Glee Club, which renders an appropriate musical touch to capping, graduation, and the Christmas festivities. At Christ- mas time, the members presented a tableau pageant entitled Christmas in Song the World Qvern. Miss Lois l-larper, the Glee Club director, wrote the background dialogue to the playlet. The years rehearsing and practice were rewarded by the high quality of performance of the Club at graduation exercises. But preparation for performance is only a part of the Glee Clubs activities. The Club serves as welcomed recreation for the members, who come faithfully to meetings every other Thursday after a long day's worlc and study. Miss l-larper has introduced a delightful repertoire of rounds and follc songs, which are fun to sing and easy to learn. Miss Balclce, recreational director, has patiently en- couraged the membership, which is constantly changing because of evening duty and vacations. Frequent parties have encouraged good fellowship in the organization. ln the future, the Glee Club is striving for a larger membership, especially among the upperclassmen.
