Collegians Learn Two Welding Methods Fourteen boys were enrolled in the new col- lege welding class that was taught this se- mester for the first time. The boys learned two types of welding in this course, arc and acetyline. With the new equipment and room, the class had the advan- tage of developing skill. Most of the boys worked with plate welding but some worked with tube welding. Before the course was ended, each boy worked with both plate and tube welding under the direc- tion and supervision of Francis Agnew, in- structor. Since the course was taught only one hour a day rapid advance could not be expected. Only the fundamentals of welding and the training of the use of the welding equipment could be gained in this course. This course was taught along the same line as the trade schools and was taught this se- mester chiefly as an experimental course. Instead of being just a preparatory course, it tends to develop a skill which can be put to ready use in the defense programs after the completion of the course. The boys enrolled in this course as follows: Grover Bills, Norman Burton, Wallace Brown, J ack Dailey, Faye Floyd, Don Hoyt, Carl Hol- man, Herb Hollenback. Bob Lawrence, Jack Martin, Billy Morgan, Victor Reeves, Raymond Stalnaker, and Cliff Yarberry. Dinner Club ls Live-Wire The Dinner Club is an organization of stu- dents of speech for the purpose of puttinginto practical use those speech techniques studied in the regular class time. The Dinner Club also gives students an op- portunity to become acquainted with proper social graces as each student is given a chance to act as host or hostess at one of the meet- ings. A special effort has been made this year to make the programs more timely. Certain holi- days have provided the theme for each of the meetings, held the second Monday of each month. ff 0 1, Es war elnmal ------ Dites donelln The language clubs of the junior college met this year on alternate Wednesday even- ings-the French club meeting on the first and third Wednesdays of the month and the German club on the second and fourth Wed- nesdays. Several special meetings of both clubs were held during the year. The French club's initial meeting was the annual Twelfth Night party in the Presbyterian Church on January 8. The celebration was ruled over by Mary Ellen McDowell and Roy Paslay. According to the French custom, the person finding the bean in his piece of cake is king or queen. Mary Ellen McDowell found the bean which gave her the privilege of choosing the king. The program was composed of impromptu numbers requested by the king and queen. A special guest was Mrs. H. H. Putman, who was born in Switzerland and has lived in several countries. She gave a brief talk con- cerning her native land in French. The officers this year were Ida Laura Shu- mate, president, Madge Sneller, vice-presi- dent, Chester Turner, secretary, Virginia Scritchfield, song leader, alnd Helen Jean Cal- kins, pianist. All business meetings and as much of the social hour as possible were con- ducted in French. Christmas caroling and the annual spring picnic were the outstanding events of the German Club's year. The annual Christmas party held at the home of Miss Anne Hawley, language instructor, was followed by the group carolimg in various parts of the city. Officers for this year were Harry Freeman, president, Winston Walker, vice-president, Ethel McKerracher, secretary, William Galle, song leader. and Eleanor Pearson, pianist. Just a sittin' in a school room In a great big easy chair, And keeping things a-movin' With a lordly sort of airy Not a thing to do but askin' Lots o' questions from a book, 'Spectin' kids to know the answers, Though they're not allowed to look, That's teachin'.
