The club enjoyed recordings, lantern slides, Spanish newspaper readings, and games. Special programs were presented at Christmas and on Pan-American Day. Correspondence with Spanish-American countries proved to be very interesting for the club members. The officers of La Fraternidad Espanola are Carl Oddo, el presidente; Jon Segraves, el vice presidente; Marjorie Wilson, la vice presidente; Josephine Mam- mama, la secretaria; and Miss Thomason, la consejera. The TOWN MEETING DISCUS- SION GROUP is one of the many clubs belonging to the National Town Hall Association. At the meet- ing every Thursday the members listen to the Town Hall Meeting of the Air and at the close of the pro- gram discuss the problem which was featured.

The club meets the first and the third Monday of each month. At the meetings the club has various talks, demonstrations, and games pertaining to Roman life and the Latin language. There is no president, but there are two consuls with equal authority. Members can advance from the lowest to the highest ranks of distinction in much the same way as citizens did in early Rome. There are four such ranks: servus, plebs, eques, and senator. One of the highlights of the year is the annual New York trip in May, when the club tours Manhattan, visits museums, and sees a Broadway show in the evening. This year it visited the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Hayden Planetarium, the Radio City Music Hall, and saw the show “Arsenic and Old Lace.” Officers were Ray Pittenger and Eva dePaolis, consules; June Curtis, scriba; Mary Elizabeth Burkley, quaestor; Sydney Downs, Rosalind Rosenfield, lictores; and Mr. Wagner, auctor.

This year’s club consisted of thirty-two members. Meetings were held on the second and the fourth Wednesday of each month. At the meetings experiments were performed which were not done during the regular class periods. Among the experiments performed individually were the preparation of various kinds of paint, the etching of glass by the use of hydro- fluoric acid vapor, and the analysis of various commercial products. Occasionally a student who was especially interested in a certain principle in chemistry gave a demonstration before the group and explained the experiment. For example, demonstrations on diffusion of gases through a porcelain crucible, the liquefaction of gases, and capillary action were given. One of the experiments which aroused the general interest of the club was that of copperplating. Keys and other metallic objects belonging to the members were immersed in a bath of copper sulphate solution, and copper was deposited on them by means of an electric current. Many other interesting experiments were performed by the club throughout the year. These have given the members valuable experience in handling laboratory appa- ratus, in addition to that which they get in the regular class periods. The officers of the club were the following: president, Malcolm McQuarrie; vice president, Lorraine LeVan; treasurer, Jon Segraves; secretary, Marie Holt; and the adviser, Mr. James. The programs were in charge of the Program Com- mittee consisting of Carl Helstrom, chairman, and Ira Reilly, Clair Davis, and Jack Eaton. Marian Poewistilo, Irene Scar- pino, Katherine IAcborman.
