to ola BU IYIGSS CIUB The activities of the Loyola Business Club this year took the form of a very complete and varied program. Student participation at the bi-monthly meetings was fostered by talks given by the members of the club on their experiences in procuring jobs, investment analysis, the as- pects of a stock brokerage firm, bond underwrit- ing and advertising agencies. The members of the club also arrange field trips to the New York Stock Exchange. Much of the success of the activities of the Loyola Business Club for the 1955-56 school year is attributable to Raymond Rohne, Presi- dent. Along with Ann Egan, Vice President and Mary Kay McAllister, Secretary, and under the guidance of Robert Koerner, the Moderator, Pxay worked out a program which not only made the meetings more interesting but proved beneficial to the members who will someday take their place in the World of commerce.

O'mAlllA BUSIUGS lLlB Timothy O'Leary President 208 One of the more fruitful activities of the evening School of Business enjoyed a successful year under the able and efficient guidance of Mr. Hyland, the moderator, and the leadership of president, Timothy H. O'Leary. The O'Mailia Business Club is an informed activity designed to broaden the students, knowledge of the business world by introducing men prominent in vari- ous fields of business activities. Since, in fact, the evening students are already professed in various particular business activities, these guest speakers' are specif- ically chosen by the club's program committee from many diversified fields so as to provide both technical and informal ideas of other businesses. With the help of these men, the aim is to stimulate and foster an active interest in business affairs in general, as opposed to additional class lectures in a particular major. Among the guest speakers of 1955-1956 were representatives of the American Stock Exchange, the American Institute of Accountants, the Port Authority, the Fordham Placement Bureau and various other fields. The meetings often in- cluded films shown by various speakers and other documentary evidence which clarified the particular discussions within the scope of the guest speaker's oration. A, question and answer period always followed each meeting so as to enable the members to express their interest in the discussions through various questions and problems that they have. Orderliness and smoothness of operation in the meetings held throughout the scholastic year provided optimum rewards for the club members. The activity of the O'Mailia Business Club ended with the again successful annual combined Business Club Dinner.
