Litey Hoopes and Bob Webb conduct these strenuous sessions, producing a schedule of dances in the gym, talent shows, an occasional French movie, and dormitory open houses. SATURDAY EVENING ENTERTAINMENT For those who don't ga to the dance, Saturday night is still a bright spot, thanks to the Saturday Evening Entertainment Committee. To accomplish its aim of pleasing everyone the committee distributes those little movie questionnaires which appear mysteriously on the dining room tables. SATURDAY EVENING DANCE Trailing crepe paper and posters, a small group visits the gym on Saturday afternoons to produce a festive look for the evening. These are the members of the Saturday Evening Dance Committee, who also take turns meeting requests for more slow ones between 7:00 and 7:50. CO-OP Co-op time, source of groans and frequent morning visits to the infirmary . . . from watering plants to shoveling snow . . . no one is left out. It is the job of the Ca-op Committee to fit the student to the task and to keep peace in our time.

A new publicity program, headed by George Segal, helped the Community Chest to reach its goal this year through the generous co-operation of George School students and faculty., PUBLIC AFFAIRS Before each Tuesday morning speech, a Public Affairs Committee member may be found frantically digging in the archives of the library. Quotes, opinions, and ideas crop up in abundance as George School peeks out of its ivory tower at the hard, cruel world. STUDENT PUBLIC RELATIONS Headed by Student Body Reps, Liz Starr and Dick Brukenfeld, the Student Public Relations Committee presents the school to the alumni, friends, and parents. This year it published a student directory, organized a job bureau for students seeking summer jobs, and sent news-letters to alumni. SCHOOL AFFILIATION One of the liveliest committees in George School, School Affiliation arranges for exchange students, this year Katy Stoelten and Juergen Starck, organizes our German-Arnerican summer work camps, and sends food and clothing abroad. Vocal meetings and busy Friday night packing sessions are led by Ellie Murray, Chairman. 1 I J ,V

Once a month in Retford, this committee debates problems involving all George School religious activity. Plans for the stimulating panel discussion on pacifism and militarism were initiated by this committee. CARNEGIE MUSIC Scarcity of new needles and frequently missing records are the main peeves of Carnegie Music members. Headed by Bob Nadler, the Committee started a campaign this year to get a new victrola within the next few decades. Occasional trips to con- certs in Philadelphia augment the regular program. Cinda Hoysrodt, Gudy Schulz, Carl Joseph, and Lane Nelson make the most of shift. N f fl 3 f' ' I7 v 3
