HIS year, the Political Discussions Cluh made many attempts to become a more attive Organization. Every month the tluh presented a thapel, and twine during the year it presented a Thursday assembly: a movie in February and a speaker in May. Another activity of the club was keeping up a bulletin board in the hall. P. D. took some trips this year. In january several members attended a junior Unesco Conference in New York, where they lirst saw Diep, whose Dwight visit was to-sponsored by P, D, and D. S. O. In the autumn P. D. xisited the United Nations, and in the spring, Rockland State Hospital. 52

The annual mid-winter conference was held at Dwight with six other schools attending: Kimberley, Barnard, Hartriclge, Kent Place, The Masters, and Vail-Deane.

The Service League had a very active year. lt Sent volun- teers to Memorial House and to Englewood Hospital. These volunteers directed the sewing for the Quakers, collected Christmas stockings for a Korean Orphanage, and organized a Kitchen Shower for Memorial House. D. S. O. realized a dream this year in the all-school Chil- clren's theatre. Under Mrs, Bailey's able direction, the D. S.

Science Club I Sandrii St. Phillip, PI'L'fjLf'L'llf 1 Lefl In riglil-Lnrnii Gilchrist, Biirbzml Walter, Stlflclril SI. Phillip, Anne Tick- nor. Eleanor Stanley. Mining---Diane Mc- Dunalld. SCIENCE Club with Miss Hicks :is advisor, was founded this year for the first time in the history of' Dwight School, and its members feel that the club is a success. Although meeting only once Ll week, the club has been zible to accomplish miiny chemical and biological experiments. The object of the group is not only to perform these experiments but also to obtain some knowledge of their biickground in order to understand them more fully. The Science Club not only fulfills the desire ot' science students to work on experiments outside of those done in class but also gives to those members who have not yet chosen it science course the opportunity to orient themselves in both chemistry and biology. In the future the Science Club plans to expand its field of experimentation. 53
