Co-op Club Co-operative students combine work with study on six-month alternations. The purpose of the Co-operative Club is to unite students in the school with students on the job, who are studying part-time, so that they may join in with the activities of the college through their own club. Each semester the members of the Co- operative Club plan three or four social functions, and in the past, the groupls out- ings have included picnics and wiener roasts at the Pink Pig, University land at Squire Valley View Farms. Co-operative Education was introduced at Cleveland College in the spring semester of 1936 in the Business Administration De- partment. Later it was offered to stud-ents in all fields covered by the College. At present the club has thirty members, and one of its aims is to reach the thirty- five-member peak reached during the de- pression years. Standing: Eleanor Choynowski, Mary L.

Under the leadership of Mr. Charles E. McCune, the club has grown from the practice stage to that of a speakers' club of capable speechmakers. In recognition of this achievement, the name of the club was changed to Speakers' Club. Membership in the club now numbers thirty-four, with a waiting list of twenty. One of the activities of the club is the annual banquet taking place at the end of each semester to give practice in after- dinner speaking. Panel discussions, debates, round tables, and speeches before civic groups are other opportunities given mem- bers to develop fluency in speech. Com- petitive and extemporaneous speeches are made during frequent joint meetings with other organizations such as the Cleveland Advertising Club.

PANHELLENIC COUNCIL Standing: Bernard Miske, William Mehaffey, Daniel Lopatt, Arthur Lambros, Jerry Kucera Seated: Jeanne Ormsby, Georgia Metzger, John Sutula, President, Mary Martin, Laura Faustini In 1938 the Panhellenic Council was formed to coordinate the activities of all recognized social Greek-letter sororities and fraternities of Cleveland College. During the War years the Panhellenic Council Was inactive because of a scarcity of students, but this year, with the in- creased enrollment, it has become active again. The council is composed of two representatives from each sorority and fraternity: Kappa Omicron and Phi Alpha Kappa sororities and Phi Kappa Epsilon, Sigma Rho Delta, and Zeta Chi Beta fraternities. When a student is pledged by one of these organizations his name is registered with the Panhellenic Council. The aims of the council are to coordinate the pledging procedures and social affairs of the organizations. It reviews the social calendars of its members at the beginning of each semester and sets up a schedule of events to prevent conflicts. Meetings are held at least once a month. Ai

The Cleveland College Chapter is a branch of the Inter- collegiate Newman Club of Cleveland, which, in turn, is a member of the Na- tional Federation of Newman Clubs. Dances sponsored by the club during the college year include the Corn- huskers' Ball, an annual fall event, the Winter Frolic, a stag dance held in January, a Mardi Gras party on the Sunday before Lent, and a Spring Formal. Monthly juke box dances are held by the various chapters of the intercol- legiate organization. Every fourth Sunday of the month the club meets at a centrally-located church to assist in Mass and receive Communion. After Mass, breakfast is served and a meeting held. The Newman Club maintains a shelf in the college library, to which one book is contributed every month. Membership is restricted to Catholic students, with no limit in number. Meetings are held the first and third Wednesdays in every month, with Father Paul Hallinan as Chaplain. After the business meeting, there is a short talk by a guest speaker or by Father Hallinan. This is followed by refreshments and dancing.
