STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION One of the most democratic groups at Emerson, the Student Government Association represents the self-governing powers of the student body. Under the new constitution the organization is smaller than formerly, and includes two representatives from each class. The successful Inter-Class Dance at the Hotel Statler last October, held in honor of the freshman class, was the first social function of the year to be spon- sored by the S. G. A. Later in the year there will be other activities under the leadership of the association. The tasteful and lovely re-decorating of the smoker during Christmas va- cation is an example of the good work done by this organization. Page Twenty-six

INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB The International Relations Club has had a lot of food for thought this year. When will the war end? What will be the economic problems after the war, and of what nature will be the peace? These and other problems have kept the brain trust busy. This year, as in the past, we hold our monthly luncheon meetings at the Wilbur, and under the leadership of Dr. McKinley and Dr. Parkhurst have managed to keep up with the news. At each meeting a book dealing with current problems is reviewed, and then the meeting is open for free discussion. Page Tu’enty-five I ! 4

KAPPA GAMMA CHI Quips, jollity, and scintillating repartee — that’s Kappa! And the quin- tessence — those gay episodic week-ends in the Berkshires — the congeniality of the Henich’s. Ah me! Who can forget their haystack? Or that first breath- less snowfall on the week-end in Bethlehem? Or the teasing aroma of robust charcoal steaks on that memorable week-end at the Kenney’s in Freedom, New Hampshire? And, of course, the Kappa baby, Edward Anson Robbins? Remember Mrs. Wade’s studio suppers: firelight, group singing, warmth, and friendship? The trips to the Cape, the Elsa Maxwell rush party, the heroic climb up Mt. Washington, the formal teas, the gracious hospitality of the Mc- Kinley’s . . . And who could forget those candid camera shots! Yes, we are glad for all the sparkling gaiety Kappa epitomizes. But first in our memories will be the opportunity it gave us to contribute our share as war-conscious Americans. We are proudest of our persistent drive for the pur- chase of war bonds and stamps. Those exhilarating discussions in the smoker . . . the philosophies of dream- ers with an ideal. Four colorful years in Kappa, a brief reconnoiter, and then on with the play!
