Horz The International Relations Club started a round of activities early in the fall of 1948 with meetings on international affairs, speakers, and panel discus- sions. Delegates from the group attended the first in a series of conferences dealing with international rela- tions. Next on the conference list was the Model Security Council at Syracuse University in December. Another session of this model Security Council was held at the University of Rochester in April. Future plans of the club include the establishment of a speakers' bureau made up of students who will speak on subjects relevant to international relations, and the production of several radio programs on in- ternational affairs. The group also plans to sponsor an essay contest for area students.
