SOCIAL COMMITTEE Making sure that fun and fellowship on Easternts campus are more than just two alliterative words is the job well done by the Student Council social committee. Active as soon as the fall term began, the com- mittee planned a round of parties for the in- coming freshmen. A l.ittle later they sponsored the annual Big Sister-Little Sister Tea. Two traditional social committee programs al- ways welcomed by the student body were held in October and November. The Sadie Hawkin,s week-end which included a Halloween party, the race, and a hayride, provided its usual hilarity. The more serious, but equally entertaining, Fall Banquet, held in the Jeffersonville Inn, was an evening to: remember. Second semester activity by the committee in- cluded a Valentine party at which a King and Queen of Hearts were crowned and the second annual Tune Tangle. THE COMMITTEE: M. Parfer, P. Scruggs, E. Pickard, L. Mee- den, C. Ginther. Not shown: R. Bordner, Chairman. y

COMMITTEE: Chairman, J. McDonald, SEATED; Members, R. Plimpton, G. Reckless, C. Countryman. CULTURAL COMMITTEE A dynamic group, the cultural committee brought to the campus noted men and women of dif- ferent fields of interest and endeavor. Of contemporary scientific interest was Dr. G. Edward Pendray,s lecture, ctMissiles and Outer Space? Two serious musical programs were presented: a harp and Violin duet from the Philadelphia Orchestra and the Vox Humana Chorale, also from Philadelphia. Perhaps the most significant event of the year was the Bernard Peiffer jazz concert. This inno- vation was enthusiastically. receivea by Eastern students and by many Philadelphia.area resi- dents. The response to this program has given rise to hopes that a jazz concert will become a yearly event at Eastern. The committee this year was ably skippered by Joseph McDonald with Mrs. Harry Rodgers as advisor.

ATHLETIC COMMITTEE The work of the Athletic Committee of the Student Council is year round and con- tributes much to campus life. Intramurals organized by the committee in the fall offer many students an opportunity to participate in football and basketball. Later intra- murals in volleyball, ping-pong, tennis and baseball are also held. Selection of the college cheerleaders is a task of this committee. The planning of the annual Spring Banquet is one of the committeeis major responsibilities. In ad- THE COMMITTEE: R. Hogeland, L. Waltz, J. Dahl, G. Meeden, Chairman. dition to being an enjoyable social event, the banquet is a time when athletic awards are presented to outstanding students. ART COMMITTEE THE COMMITTEE: K. McClain; FIRST ROW: K. McClain, L. Owens, Chair- man, L. Bogdanow; SECOND ROW: M. Dugdale, L. Alexander. If Eastern students were not aware of campus events which concerned them dur- ing the past year, it may be because they did not have their eyes open. For the Student Council Art Committee did an excellent job all year of publicizing school activities. The colorful and attractive posters made by committee members were constantly in evidence in Walton Hall. For special social and cultural events on campus the commit- tee also placed posters in the surrounding community and helped stimulate outside interest in the college. The great amount of hard work done by Louise Owens and her committee is appreciated by the whole student body. 52
