Treasurer' HO GAMMA, a new club this year, was organized to give the members ol the Women's College a chance to participate in sports and other activi- ties. There are twenty charter members in the club who get together for a monthly outing, which may range anywhere from a good moving picture to a long hike in the countryx There have been a hay ride, outdoor picnics, hikes, swimming, and several bowling parties. Rho Gamma also sponsored the annual ping pong tournament which was a great success. Viewing the enthusiasm with which Rho Gamma was welcomed, it is safe to predict that it is on the campus to stay. l66l

CUPS had struck a bonanza! As a fall production CUPS staged its adaptation of Moliere's 'I'he Doctor in Spire of Himself with modernized dialogue and modern stage directions. In spite of gasoline rationing. the Christmas season. and the flu epidemic the play was a theatrical and Iinancial success. worthy of being the follower of Ten Nights. Sganarelle, the lazy, bibulous woodchoppcr-turned-medico. played by Gordon Price seemed to catch the true spirit of the comedy and enjoyed his role as much as did the audience. Peg Russell turned in her usual fine per- formance in the part of Martine, Sganarelle's sharp-tongued wife. Geronte. the wealthy. grasping old man, easily duped by everyone, was played by Jack Brennan who displayed much histrionic ability and versatility. Lucinde. daughter of Geronte, was ably portrayed by our ingenue. Betty Sampson. whose tirade against her father and love scenes with Jack I.eandre Coyle demonstrated that CUPS had made another find Big, awkward. slow- witted 'ALucas, played by Edmund Vaskas. nearly stole the show with his mimicing and pantomiming, Jacqueline, the seductive wife of Lucas. played to perfection by Barbara Norris, drew more than her share of whistling and sighing from the audience. Mention must be made of Julio Irizarry, Oscar Resnick, Donald Brigham. and Paul Ronnholm who played their respective roles with skill and gusto. During the winter season CUPS took to the air under the sponsorship of the Worcester Health Department and presented a series of eight fifteen-minute skits on current health problems. The Forest Prince. an operetta to the tunes of Tschaikowski, was CUPS' spring production with the indispensable cooperation of Mr. Malmstrom and the Glee Club. This production was well received and enjoyed by Worcester's theatre going public. ' CUPS wishes to extend its thanks to Prof. Robert S. Illingworth for his able direction and leadership in this year's endeavors so successful: to Miss M. Hazel Hughes for her tireless work on routines and specialty dances and to all who have helped the organization as costumers and technicians. CUPS feels justly proud of ending another year by maintaining its position as a leading campus organization and one of the most noted drama societies in the East despite pressure and curtailment brought on by the war.

Treasurer HE Clark Inter-Faith Society is the first organization founded and main- tained entirely in the Women's College. Its purpose is to foster under- standing, appreciation, and cooperation among all faiths. Through informal discussions and by prominent beliefs, this purpose has been accomplished. Together with these regular meetings, the society has also undertaken various projects pertaining to its goal. Christmas prompted caroling at the Worcester hospitals and nearby faculty homes. A Book Drive for Prisoners of War was sponsored. and both time and money were contributed to the Red Cross Drive, Monthly food sales and a bridge-social provided financial backing for the activities of this popular organization. l67l
