ART CLUB The Art Club, composed of students interested in sketching, is organ- ized in the early part of each school year. Sketching is done from life and still life including animal drawings, human beings, and paintings. Under the competent direction of Miss Zoe Beiler, the organization has become interested in many fields of art. Sketching is done in ink, charcoal, pastel chalks, pencil and oils. In the spring quarter an exhibition of the best work is placed in bound form in the College Library. In the Homecoming parade the group carried out the idea of living statuary. The club also presented an attractive assembly program featur- ing living statues arranged and described by members of the Art Depart- ment. The officers are: Eileen Lyons, President; Harry Carroll, Secretary- Treasurer; and Miss Zoe Beiler, Faculty Adviser. PPAIPIE SMOKE. 1939 Thirty-two

Along with a knowledge of social etiquette, instructions in weaving, knitting and crocheting were given. Any student who has been or is enrolled in Home Economics classes either in high school or college is eligible to become an active member of the club. There are about eighteen members.

Membership in the Associated Collegiate Press Association and conversion to a smaller weekly instead of the usual bi- monthly edition were significant changes this year.
