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.

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.

AMERICAN VETERANS COMMITTEE Four years ago, Gilbert Harrison, a sergeant in the Army Air Corps, began writing to a group of friends, and from this correspondence sprang the Amer- ican Veterans Committee, one of the fastest growing of the new veterans, organizations. Citizens First, Veterans Second is the adopted slogan of this group which offers its members a chance to meet with other veterans of World War II. Its national membership numbers 95,000 men and women. The Cleveland College chapter was organized by Sid Silvcrberg in May, 1946. From the original twelve charter members, the local committee has grown to one hundred and twenty-six men and women veterans. As part of local and national A.V.C. campaigns, this chapter has fought for continuance of rent control and O.P.A., a raise in subsistence for student veterans, and the passage of the Wagner-Ellender-Taft Housing Bill. A hayride, a wiener roast, a bike-hike along the Youth Hostel route, and an Anniversary Dance at the Hotel Carter were on the activity calendar this year. Future meetings will bring prominent guest speakers to lecture on politics, literature, social science, and sports. A.V.C. meets on Friday evenings. Honorably discharged veterans of World War II enrolled in at least one college course are eligible for membership in this chapter. Dr. Harlan B. Roney, Associate Professor of Biology, is the faculty adviser.
