Journalism Club The Journalism Club was formed with the purpose of serv- ing as a means of expression for the journalistic minds and talents of the students. The club receives instruction in modern methods and practices of the journalistic world. Most important project of this organization is a share in the writing, editing, publishing, and distribution of the Neiuscttc, official monthly publication of the unixersitv. Seated — F. Reed. Secretary-Treasurer; Virgil Sorge, President; C. Brogan. Vice-President. Staitding — P. Hege, L. Howland, J. Brubaker, M. Rogers, B. Smith, E. Kennard. Back row — A. Wyllie. E. Peck. A. Wyllie, Proof Reader ; M. Rogers, Assistant Editor ; P. Hege, Circulation Manager ; V. Sorge, Editor ; Mrs. Fish, Alumni Editor ; Dr. Rudd, Faculty Adviser. Newsette Staff As the official publication of the university, Ncicscttc travels monthly throughout the nation, bringing Echoes from Bryan Hill. Edited and published by students, under faculty supervi- sion, Nezvsette affords opportu- nity for the development and ex- pression of literary talent, and Ijrings the many friends who read it current information of plans, happenings, and progress on the hill. From a humble beginning in 1935 as a mimeographed paper of forty-five copies, Ncz i ' sctfc has grown in size and style to its present importance and a circu- lation of nearly twelve thousand. Members of the Journalism Club contribute the articles concerning student and school happenings ; members of the staff write from time to time concerning their re- spective fields ; and pertinent quotations from other publica- tions frequently find a place. Clank of the press, smell of the printer ' s ink, and the whir of the folding machine that has re- cently supplanted the hand method, bring nostalgic memo- ries to every student who has been a part of the university.

Forensic Union College life is a blend of for- mal and informal gatherings all combining to make a well- rounded college curriculum. The Forensic Union is one of those organizations which educates a student in the methods and pro- cedures of a formal meeting. The Union meets every other Tuesday of each month. The meetings are started with devo- tions, followed by a minute of silent prayer for men in service. Then follow special music, ex- temporaneous and impromptu speeches, book reports and po- ems, all centering on the chosen theme of the evening. Parlia- mentary drill and the critique complete the program. In clos- ing, the roll is called, then busi- ness is brought before the Union. A motion to adjourn brings to an end a pleasant evening. Spanish Club The Spanish Club has a four- fold purpose. C)ne of the aims of the members is to acquire the ability to understand Spanish better, and to be able to speak the language more fluently. Then, the club upholds in prayer those missionaries and Christian work- ers who are serving the Lord in Spanish-speaking countries. And as they pray for the workers, club members become better ac- quainted with work in these countries. At each meeting a dif- ferent country is discussed ; and a talk, given by one of the mem- bers, acquaints the group with facts concerning that country. Meetings of the Spanish Club are held on the second and fourth Mondays of each month. Front row — H. Geiger, M. Miller, President ; Mrs. Pettit, A. Henderson, J. Brubaker. Back row — A. Garber, D.

Scarlets Scarlets, chosen as are the Golds by an equal division of the student body, fight hard to equal and excel the performance of their friendly opponents. Like the Golds, they are endeavoring to demonstrate true Christian ethics by striving lawfully, fighting the battles hard, yet maintaining the unity that goes beyond the temporary division. The forensic tourney — they say — will give them the final boost to victory. E. Kennard, C. Graham. H. Geiger, P. Hege. A. Tucker. B. Smith. E. Camp- bell, A. Wildern, M. Baldwin, A. Kettenring. M.

Competition has been keen, with football tied, and the Golds holding an edge to date by virtue of basketball vic- tories in two closely-contested games. Pressing hard for the de- cision in the forthcoming foren- sic tourney, the Golds confidently expect to continue their record of recent years.
