H. E. E. H. The Coucher College Christian Association is an organization whose activities touch every aspect of student life. This year, with the largest membership in several years, C. C. C. A. has carried out an ambitious program which was planned by its cabinet long before the opening day of school. New students at Coucher soon became familiar with the work of the G. C. C. A. The members, in addition to sending welcoming letters and roses, gave a cocoa party for the Mary Fisher freshmen, and a punch party for the city freshmen. Following the precedent set by last year's conference, C. C. C. A. sponsored a series of panel discussions on religion and post-war problems. if First Row: F. Iohnson, N. YVinslow, Fortinsky. Second Row: P. Telford, M. VVilson, M. Miller, K. Gerig, S. Buckner, M. Miller S Banghart F.. Shapiro, C. Coultas. Firesides were held at Mary Fisher Hall and uZZZ9. The Social Service Committee has been especially active this year, sending volunteers to Iohns Hopkins Hospital, International Settlement House, and the Home for Incurables. After two years in the hands of the Service Committee, the United Campaign Fund was returned to the sponsorship of the C. C. C. A., and pledges of faculty and students exceeded the goal that was set. Money from this fund is donated to the Coucher College Scholarship Fund, to the Isabella T hoburn College in India, and to the VVorld Students' Service, which helps students in war-torn countries.
