Gertrude Cook French lub Mademoiselle from S.M.j.C., parlez-vous? Oui? Bien entendu! Come to our French Club and you will hear how we chatter. The French Club aims to promote a 'greater interest in the language and social customs of France, and for this purpose luncheons are conducted at Chartiers, or the Perichon. It is an informal organization with no officers, and is sponsored by the French instructors, Madame Schuring and Mademoi- selle Herrington. Anyone who has taken French is invited to attend the luncheons, at which the members present French skits and musical composi- tions and the voices of the rising young Frenchmen ring out lustily in the patriotic strains of the Marseillaise. Spcznisfr Club Wfhen the Spanish padres departed from California they left, besides the Missions, an undying interest in the Spanish language and customs. In an effort to intensify this interest at our junior college the Spanish Club was formed this year. The meetings are held at luncheons, and programs con- sisting of speeches, skits, or musical numbers are presented. Preridem' ......... Clayton Hoffman Cbaiwmzzz of Entemiifizivzent ....

SAN Mfmso JUNIOR Corrlsoiz 41 Qc -um 'l 1 . 1 .A ,V 1 4.5 ' '. t 't' 1' IJM7... Engineers' C lub RGANIZED in the fall of 1928 with fifty members, the Engineers' Club has become the largest single student organization on the Campus. The purpose of this organized group is to become better acquainted with the practical developments in the field of engineering. The fall of 1929 was a most successful one under the able leadership of Earl Schoenfeld. Trips were made to the Portland Cement Co., the Market Street Railway Shops, the Pacihc Coast Steel Company, and the Atlas Diesel Engine Wforks. 1 The spring of 1950 found Walter Schultz as chairman of the club. He provided various student speakers on the programs of the club luncheons. The topics discussed were radio, television, and other topics of interest. Student speakers have become a club institution owing to the success and popularity of these speeches. The members visited the University of California on Engineers' Day this semester, and profited thereby. lt is hoped that this club will continue its splendid work, assisted as it is by George Pomeroy and Charles Westigard, who lend much assistance and encouragement to the members of the organi- zatton.

Debates with the California and Stanford Freshman debaters are engaged in under the sponsorship of Mr. Steinmetz, instructor in psychology. Mary McGinn is the president, and joe Woods, and james Hickey have been among the active members. Board of Control Infraction of the rules under the self-disciplining system at the junior College comes under the jurisdiction of the board of control. The rules concern chiefly the conduct of the students around the campus and at dances in San Mateo. In certain cases the student body cards are revoked at the bi-monthly meetings of the group. This group has not an enviable job, but it tries to decide cases for the good of the student body. 1929: Brant Bernhard, Clmiwzrzrrg Faith jordan, Kenneth Lister, t jean Crawford, Johnnie Moore. 1930: Edward Levin, Cbrzimmrrg Evelyn Gassagne, Virginia Bennett, Williani Reichel, Maury Baldwin, Frank Henrotte. no 'Q i
