One of their important functions each year is their joint Christmas party with the CM. A., always a memorable occasion. Every commuting woman is a member of this organization, which forms a large portion of F.T.C. Playing cards, doing homework, listening to the radio, assisting with class work, or just resting are the typical activities in their downstairs lounge. The board endeavors to establish a comfortable atmosphere despite the challenge presented by various renovations. Under the capable leadership of Miss Bolger, the Commuting Women ' s Board strives to satisfy the growing needs of the association.

In order that they may be brought more closely to the activities at the college, a Men ' s Commuters Association is in operation. It numbers 200 in membership. The C.M.A. ' s lunch and game room, with its cards, checkers, radio, and other sources of relaxation, has often been the scene of many a discussion or debate. The important events of this past year have been a lunch for incoming Freshmen, commuters ' picnic, and the famous clam bake. This association is an asset and necessity to our campus because of the activities it sponsors and the gap il tills in the life of the male commuter. .
