Since its inception in 1959 under the sponsorship of Mr. Benjamin Rothberg, the Junior-Senior Seminar has increasingly played an integral part in the cultural life of Girard College. With the retirement of Mr. Rothberg in 1965, Mrs. Elsie M. McDaniel has effectively taken over the responsibility for carrying on this excellent organization. All the lectures for the 1965-1966 sessions have been stimulating and informative. These discussion and subjects have been interestingly varied. In conjunction with the lectures, the speakers have utilized slides, films, demonstrations and unusual exhibits. Mr. Wister Wood, of the Academy of Fine Arts, had as his subject The History of Painting.” Dr. Samuel Kramer, Curator of the Tablet Collection at the University of Pennsylvania Museum, spoke on Com¬ merce, Law, Medicine and Farming—the Four Firsts of Civilization.” Dr. Shirley Steve, Academic Dean of Harcum Junior College discussed The Future of the Junior Colleges.” There was also a lecture on the History of Science. Dr. Zeil lectured on Some Schools of Contemporary Art.” Certainly it has been a privilege and a pleasure for the members to participate in this activity. We are deeply obligated to Mrs. McDaniel for the energy and time she has devoted to organizing this series of talks. Dr. William F. Zeil, a prominent speaker at a meeting.

Under Cadet Major Daniel Jayjock the Girard Battalion has developed week by week to become an organization which has added luster to Colonel Hamilton’s years of High points of the year were the Competitive Drill, the Founder’s Day exhibition, and the Officer’s Hop, all of which have served to stimulate the members to a sense of unity and satisfaction. In the Competitive Drill Captain Edward Zink led Company A to a strong first place over Company C commanded by Captain Charles Walker, with Company D and B following in that order. Other officers deserving praise are Captain Anthony Mallace, Company B; Captain Kenneth Scalella, Company D; Captain of Recruits, Richard Strickland; Captain Inspector, Mario Maiale; and Captan Quartermaster, George Schied. A large measure of credit must go to Colonel James M. Hamilton and Master Sergeant Matthew M. McMillen who unceasingly demanded our best efforts. We shall remember with satisfaction this proud organization. accomplishment. i 19 b
