tbrganizatinna NEW YORK DREXEL CLUB. - ' The New York Drexel Club is probably one of the youngest organizations bearing the name of Drexel. Mr. Beatty, a graduate engineer of Drexel, conceived the idea of bringing the men of the above-named institution into closer contact with each other. On April 8, 1911. at the Hotel Albert, New York City, the club was organized. Mr. Beatty was elected temporary chairman, and Mr. Green temporary secretary. Later the club was incorporated under the laws of New York City. The main object is to aid Drexel graduates in a social and business way. Although practically in its infancy, the club has already done considerable good work, and is to be commended on the splendid progress made. ' Men eligible for membership are men graduating from the Engineering course at Drexel Institute and living in or near New York City. The present ofticers are: WM. H. BEATTY, JR. .... J. B. WELCH ......... .... I. H. WOOD. .. F. K. SIMON .... I. G. KNIGHT .... A. E. CLAYTON .... President and Director. Vice President and Director Secretary and Director. Treasurer and Director. Director.

School spirit at Drexel institute, and especially among the Engineering students, is on the increase for lo and behold. the present school year sees a debating society launched. A step in the right direc- tion? Vlfhat? It happened something like this: A few of the more serious and thoughtful Seniors. realizing that the courses in engineering at Drexel lacked some of those things which bring out and develop the social side of mankind, got together and drew up some by-laws and a constitution for a proposed debating society. Its prime object was to develop a student's confidence in himself and his ability to get up before an audience and express liis views on a subject without getting his tongue tied in double-bow knots. A general invitation was extended to all Seniors to meet in East Hall lecture-room and discuss the advisability of forming such a society. The outcome of the meeting was that the constitution and A S2
