Whether it be spon- soring a tea, or decorating the auditorium for commencement, or making cos- tumes for a p)a.y, or helping furbish up a dormitory, or just quietly helping some needy student—it’s the Campus Club that does it. Not since 1924 have we published its picture in the Chromascope. But here we show you the fine women of the campus, the backers of every worthy enterprise. mm , I rMiiimmi -w WjSy.
