AS liek COI MUL Codes Slee Law Club HE J. C. Law Club, composed of all students in the pre-law curriculum is fast becoming one of the most active and powerful of the Junior College clubs. The main purposes of the club are to teach the members the rudiments of parliamentary law and to give the members some ideas of what the practice of law entails. The club this year, although getting off to a slow start, is now working nicely. So far this year, the members have had some lawyers speak to them, have had impromptu discussions on questions of current political interest and have won the intra-mural basketball contest.

Reba Langworthy URPOSE: The purpose of the Bay City Junior College Women’s League is the estab- ishment of friendship and understanding among women of the college through working together for a common, worthy cause. At the first meeting of the executive council the temporary chairman drew the names of the new girls thus assigning them to their respective groups. Because of the increased enrollment in Junior College, a new group, which is to be known as the Aurae was formed by the council. The Loan Fund, for which all the groups earned money during the year, has been well used. With over three hundred dollars at the beginning of the year, the books show that over two hundred dollars have been loaned to students. The individual groups sponsored many social activities in the form of parties, dances, and bridges. Early in October, the women faculty members entertained the girls at a tea. In April, the League as a unit sponsored the Gingham Ball which was a great success. The final social gathering of the year was the annual banquet, which was held at Trinity Parish House. Later in the evening, the girls and sponsors were entertained by local musical talent. During the second semester a clearing-house committee was formed, consisting of Miss Schroeder, Miss Anschutz, and Miss Hellmuth. To this committee all project chair- men must submit their plans for approval. The purpose of this group is to determine that all details, such as chaperones or ticket-takers are properly taken care of. Keen competition has been shown by the groups by participation in basketball, rifle, tennis, swimming, and baseball tournaments to secure points toward the Wilbur Pardon Bowen cup which is a trophy cup awarded to the group that places first in athletics. At the annual meeting, Maria Kirchman was elected president for the coming year, and Jane Nickless was chosen secretary. Elections of other officers will take place next semester as customary. [17]

Junior College Play HE clever comedy, “Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch,’’ was enthusiastically received by an appreciative audience on December 4. This story of a woman left by her husband to bring up her large family brought both tears and laughter from those looking on. The weaving of the events of the Cabbage Patch around the Wiggs family caused complications, but they all led to bringing Mr. Wiggs back to his wife. Vivian Bailey, Esther Schweitzer, and Emeline Anderson very cleverly played the parts of the three mischievous daughters of Mrs. Wiggs—Europena, Austry, and Asia. Billy Wiggs (Jack Korn) and Chris Hazy (Don Oakes) kept a hilarious note through the whole play, as did the drunken Mr. Stubbins (Henry Hart) and the hysterical Miss Hazy (Caroline Marston). Mrs. Wiggs (Norma Curtis) showed her kindly and ruling spirit in running her unruly household, in managing other people’s affairs—promoting the marriage of Miss Hazy and Mr. Stubbins with the help of Hunkerdunkus Jones, agent (John Kavanagh) and the affair of Miss Lucy and Mr. Bob, and her protection of the runaway orphan, Lovey Mary (Madeline Race.) The German ladies were very clever claracter sketches by Alice DeWaele and Made- line Hadcock. Through the efforts of Mr. Klingbeil, director, and the large, talented cast, ‘‘Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch”’ was highly successful and well recerved. Members of the cast: Mrs Wiggs, Norma Curtis; Lovey Mary, Madeline Race; Miss Hazy, Caroline Mar- ston; Miss Lucy, Lorraine DeWaele; Mrs. Eichorn, Alice DeWaele; Mrs. Schultz, Made- line Hadcock; Asia, Vivian Bailey; Austry, Esther Schweitzer; Europena, Emeline Ander- son; Mr. Stubbins, Henry Hart; Mr. Wiggs, Phillip Patterson; Mr. Bob, Gerald Johnson; Billy Wiggs, Jack Korn; Chris Hazy, Don Oakes; H. Jones, John Kavanagh; Sheriff, Dave Miller; Tina Viney, Joan Mallet; Deacon, Joe MacPhail; Brother Splicer, Joe Biller; Mr. Schultz, Bill Fogg. The J. C. Dramatics Club was organized shortly after the production of the annual J.C. play, “Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch.’’ Norma Curtis, who with Miss Lola Bishop and Caroline Marston helped the club get underway with this year’s work, held the office of president for the first semester and was succeeded by Caroline Marston.

eho!) Caner: lyBuleE. J Cy, HE J.C.Y. has passed through a successful year in its program. This school-year has marked the first time that the regular weekly meetings have been held in the school. Formerly the meetings had been held at the Y.M.C.A. Judged by the larger attendance and interest, this step has proved a wise one. Bryce Adie has been president of the organization, for the year, and was ably assisted by Wesley Timm, Vice-president, and John Cramer, Secretary. The purpose of the club is to promote activities among the men of the college and to promote fellowship among them.The J.C.Y. is more or less a continuance of the high-school Hi-Y, working in co-opera- tion with the Y.M.C.A. However, the club has no affiliation with the Hi-Y. The sponsor of the club is Dean George Butterfield. Mr. J. S. Brown, Boy’s Work Secretary of the Y.M.C.A. had also acted as sponsor till his resignation at the Y.M.C.A. in the latter part of March, 1932. The “Second Annual Turtle Derby”? was sponsored by the club November 11, and counted as a real success by those present. Among the speaker at the regular meetings were Rev. Homer D. Mitchell, Rev. H. Kreulen, Rev. Orthner, H. R. Hadcock, of the Bay City Y.M.C.A., Rev. T. H. Kady, and Rev. Hunt, each of whom gave a very interesting and varied program. Also, Col. A. H. Gansser spoke on disarmament, a very timely subject, from the militaristic point of view. He was followed on the same subject, but from the civilian view, by Russell Amhrein. Mr. Clayton R. Garlock also spoke to the club on “Boy and Girl Relations.”’ The final event of the year was the Retreat, which was held at Sand Lake, May 28, 29, and 30. Tetra Scis HE Tetra Sci Club is composed of pre-medical, pre-dental, pre-pharmacy, and chemistry students. Organized in October, 1931, with Mr. G. L. Martin, head of the chemistry department as advisor, the following officers were elected: president, David Kahn; vice- president, Joseph MacPhail; secretary-treasurer, Frank Schultz. The purpose of the organization is to better acquaint the members with the different aspects and various possibilities of the fields they intend to enter. The bi-weekly Thursday programs have successfully carried out this policy. On December 3, 1931, the new club held its first program meeting with Mr. Louis B. Harrison, head of the Bay City Filtration Plant, speaking on ““Water Purification.’ A trip through the filtration plant followed on December | 7. Two films, ““Beyond the Microscope” and ‘‘Liquid Air,’ were shown on January 7. Speaking on ‘“The Art of Medicine,’ Dr. L. Fernald Foster addressed the club on January 21. An inspection of the Jones clinic was made on March 3. Many also took advantage of an aeroplane ride, which Dr. J. M. Jones offered to each member. Dr. W. G. Gamble conducted the group through Mercy Hospital on March 31. Members heard Dr. Sumby of Saginaw on April 7, and Luther Carpenter, a senior medical student, on April 14. The most recent trip was through the Consumers Gas Plant at Zilwaukee on April 28. Two more programs will probably complete the year’s schedule. [ 18 |
