44 The CAMPUS 1 1930 1 CDE olay HE clatter and clang of th foon bell has hardly died away. The buildings of the campus suddenly appear to be human beehives. Out into the fresh air and warm' sunshine swarm the students of our college, hungry after a morning of toil, and ready for a little nourishment and perhaps a little recreation. From the general mass, small groups are seen to form hurriedly and emerge to leave the campus in all directions. Some are drawn together by a mutu.al desire for companionship, others by a general liking for this or that eating place, while others are inspired by common interests, such is the case with the DeMolay luncheon club. This organization is comparatively new on the campus, but one that has found much favor in the eyes of a large but limited group of De Molays. It is purely a social club, designed to furnish to members, who come from widely separated sections, but who have much in common, an opportunity to meet each other and talk over subjects of interest to all. The luncheons are held every other Monday at the Benjamin Franklin Hotel. P1'ei'ide11f.r . . . Stanley Davis, Johnnie Moore Vice-Pf'e5iflenf.s' . .

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

But he brightens somewhat when one of the Y boys makes it a point to find something in common with him and asks him to join the crowd. Soon he's just one of the fellows. He does not remain a stranger very! long under such conditions. If he is only a Freshman, he may be invited to enjoy himself at the Freshman banquet that the club members provide every semgstdr. Such is his introduction to the Col- lege Y Club, a lively part of the sochil life of our campus. Later on, to be sure, he learns that his new friends have other purposes besides that of making the Freshmen comfortable! For example, he finds that the club is devoted to social training and improvement, and that the fellows, besides putting out really ptaiseworthy track teams for competition with other Y clubs, also are interested in more serious subjects, such as religion, politics, science, and art. In keeping with their policy they try to have the best of speakers at their meetings.
