Never too tiresiinie, the meetings prove to be refreshingly scliolarly. The history uf the ht society until this year was one of ups and downs.

DISCUSSION CLUB 'vm pgs ESIGNED TO Give practical answers to practical questions, the seminary discussion club last year delved into three problems especially bothersome in the ministers life. Under the chairmanship of Xllill Barker, the group discussed the principles of canonicity of the New Testament, and discovered widely divergent views on the issue of the relationship of worldliness and the life of the Christian. In the final gathering, Father Columba Cary-Elwes of the St. Louis Priory addressed R a large audience on his views of fundamentalism and Roman Catholicism. A lively discussion followed. The club's adviser was Professor Vvilber B. XVallis: assistants in programming were John Sandri and VVerner Mietling. M ?

Fiol, Cleveland THE coxxmexlrr or THE LIFE of any society controls the amount of government neces- sary for that group. .-Xt Covenant, as the stu- dent body grows, as new standards are adopted, and as unique traditions are discoyered, the student polity must needs keep pace. Important basic accomplishments were the trademark of the college student council this year, under the presidency of Ray Discher. The drafting and approval of a new constitu- tion, the continuation and expansion of the helpful big-brother, big-sister program, and the establishment of Kilter Day are only a few of the results of the weekly Thursday evening sessions of the council. Vice-president was Hill McColley1 both Pat Smith and Miriam Malkus held the position of secretary-treasurer: and julie Belz served as social committee chairman.

1 lx An Hn H2453 .m ' ' Cooper, Rhyne, lielz, VVallis, Morris, D1 lxillen THE T RT TAFI? P1-.xNS, nEsir:Ns, Plioros, copy, type, time, effort, and discouragement are a few of the ingredi- ents which go into the publishing of a school's yearbook. Those members of the 1959 Tartan -staff who shopped for these elements, and then stirred them in the proper proportions learned more in the process than they ever would have claimed they knew at the first. Led by editor-in- chief Neal Cooper, who also was responsible for the photography work, assistant editor Darlene Rhyne, layout artist Jeanne Morris, copy editor Den XVallis, and business manager and typo- grapher ,loel llelz worked far into the summer in an attempt to adequately describe Covenant life. llr. R. Allan Killen was a most helpful faculty adviser. XVe must leave room for improvement next year, was the excuse always offered to a difficult problem, VVhile the staff's best efforts were even- tually expended, it was constantly their hope that this year's annual should only be a stepping stone to better things ahead. THE BAGPI PE STAFF AFFORDING PRACTICE IN WRITING to members of a freshman English class, as well as in- forming Covenants large public constituency, the Bagpipe performs a double purpose. VVritten with the uninformed reader in mind, the paper assumes nothing. Its duty is to acquaint hundreds of friends with the way of life at Covenant. XVith VV. Ben Wiallis jr. as editor, the class of writers attempts always to bring the most interesting news and opinion from around the Campus. Gebb, Relz, Ht-yes, Mainland, Sanderson, K Smith, Bader, R.
