YARN SWAPPERS The Forum is organized during the fall quarter to encourage forensic activities and extemporaneous speech among college students. The Forum programs are intend- ed to promote all types of speech activities. Extemporaneous topics, poetry reading, round table dis- cussions. and outside speakers have each formed a basis for meetings. Two outstanding meetings were held, one in which Theodore Kellogg gave an address and the other which featured debate tryouts. The organization has sponsored two assembly programs. On Feb. 11 a group presented a Lincoln day program. The men's team debated with the women’s team to provide another in- teresting assembly program. They were fortunate to have an excellent chef as the president of the organization, as he has displayed his art at several meetings by serv- ing doughnuts and coffee. The head breeze of this blow-hard outfit was Russell Porten, with John Funk as assistant blower, or vice president, and Clara Pierce, secre- tary-treasurer. Dr. R. L. Lokken is the adviser. DR. R. L.
