College Square Players Throughout the year, the Cleveland Col- lege Square Players provide entertainment by producing a number of popular plays under the direction of Dr. Wfilliam McCol- lom, Assistant Professor of English and Dra-- matic Art. This year's plays included Oul- warcl Bound by Sutton Vane, The Circle by Somerset Maugham, and a Greek drama. Aside from its entertainment aims, this organization introduces its members to the aesthetic values and technical skills of the theater. Students may try out for dramatic parts. Those interested in working on sets or stage decoration must consult Dr. Mc- Collom.

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.

Radio Club Riding Club Mary Centrackio, Dorothy Jane Clay, Ralph Orr, Jane Kinkopf, Catherine Wright As rated by its adviser, Miss Julia C. Swedenburg, the Radio Club of Cleveland College is probably the most hopeful group on the campus,', because it has such great hopes for future expansion. It was reorgan- ized this semester around a nucleus of nine members whose purpose it is to maintain radio interest and further radio knowledge in speaking and writing. To people who are interested in radio work, the club gives the opportunity to pro- duce original scripts and to express new ideas in radio production and writing. Eventually the club hopes to put on pro- ductions for civic groups and hospitals. The group meets on alternate Fridays in the upper stage room. Back Row: Robert Tuneberg, Robert Matthews, James Mc- Clelland, Ray McClelland, Cormack Quinlivan, Walter Kane Middle Row: janet Glass, Mary Samouris, Jerry Kucera, William Geib, Sally Dexter, Mary Dotchkoff Front Row: Mary Jane Carros, Mary Martin, Jean Davis, Laura Faustini, Joan Mettc, Adele Ankuda Every Sunday morning, weather permit- ting, forty or fifty students ride horseback at an East-side Academy, usually the Hill- grove. The Riding Club has no officers and collects no dues. Members pay their own rental fee. In the summer, in addi- tion to horseback riding, the members go on hayrides. Membership in the club is open to all Cleveland College students. Riders may bring to its events as many friends as they wish. Since the club usually rides on the East side, transportation is provided for West side members. The club was founded in the spring of 1946 by two Cleveland College freshmen, Bob Matthews and Corky', Quinlivan, who are still its most active members.
