In November, 1946, a group of twenty-two stu- dents formed the Baccacian Society to promote good fellowship and lasting friends. During their first year the Baccacians originated a Gloom Ball which was held just before the week of exams. This year a third annual l'Gloom Ball was held at the Endicott Legion, thus making it the oldest social club sponsored affair on the college calendar. Another Baccacia First is the Baccacia Scholar- ship. Baccacia was the first student organization to grant a cash scholarship.

Founded early in December, it has since grown and developed until it is now on a par with the other social clubs. The Dionysians have enjoyed several parties and outings during recent months. Among the most memorable is the early March outing at the summer home of Tait Robertson at Quaker Lake. On another occasion the Dionysians sponsored a roller-skating party. The Dionysians entered a team in the intramural basketball league, and also have taken their place with the other social clubs by assisting with the Red Cross drive and other worthy causes. 0 O 'S swf X 4? 4 1lll H103 9 . 4- J D45 IIIIHW WNW 40 'ld ' i2,..5 !l77lLli-E 1 at Ze? - J H ga 1 ef Q E 4 ' E 19 'i 5 ' 5 P R f 2 A-zz 5 W Qt?
