fm fdlfwlmfik fm Science Club caters to those many students who have either a talent or interest in science. Boasting one of the largest member- ships of any extra-curricular organization, the club has three basic sections: Biology for freshmen and sophomores, Medical Careers for juniors and seniors, and Photography for juniors. Each section has its own moderator and chairman to coordinate activities. Week- ly meetings for all sections are conducted by the club officers and a monthly general meeting allows all members to pool ideas. Guest speakers, Elms, and demonstrations add to the interest of general meetings. This year the Medical Careers section studied aseptic methods used in laboratories, blood testing, typing and expression of the Rh factor, while Biology section, divided into six groups, conducted experiments in Human Genetics, Entomology, and Ecology.

Librarian Sister Genevieve Marie shares practical know-how with LC member. The primary purpose of the Library Council is to promote good reading among the students. Through skits and short programs, girls become acquainted with many of the latest best sellers as well as some of the old favorites. L.C. members, in return for service, have the privilege of reading the best sellers first. Along with a new moderator came innovations. Now, only sophomores and juniors give service in the library. Library duties, too, have expanded and some L.C. members are being introduced into the mechanics of accession- ing and, in a limited degree, are helping with the actual cataloging. The major project of the mem- bers this year is helping with the reorganization of the periodical section. Because of the increase in membership, the club is divided- into two sec- tions which meet on alternate Thursdays. On April 25, at a general meeting for L.C. members, Miss Mary Carroll Power, Librarian from the Englewood Public Library, addressed the group on opportunities in the field of Library Science. This year, as part of the observance of National Library Week, the sophomores received their Li- brary Council pins and became full-fledged mem- bers.
