. The Volante President Coolidge has said that the pulpit, the schoolroom and the press are the three greatest influences affecting the thought of the people of the world today, and college journalism certainly neither could nor would claim exemption from this place in the sun in regard to college af- fairs. The Fourth Estate has been ably represented at Grand Island College this year by The Volante, under the editorship of Cleora Vaughan, with Wayne Wells at the other end of the line making the thing pay -a feat which he, and Aubrey Hurlbert, as business manager the year before, have been the only managers in recent years to accomplish. To alertly re- port the worth-while happenings in the college, and to interpret the cur- rents of student thought is not an easy task, and in both these respects The Volante compares very favorably with student publications of other colleges in this state, and elsewhere. Under Miss Vaughan's name in the mast-head of this year's issues have appeared the following staff: Sporting editor, LeRoy Watson, Athenian, Pearl Simpson, Amphictyon, Mildred Pearson, Y. M. C. A., Eldon Smith, Hibbs Hall, Mary Boxwellg Poverty Phlatz, Laurin Graham, Life Service League, Enid Myers, Sigma Tau Delta, LaVerne Loosg Alumni, Miss Hile, Senior, Mary Boxwellg Junior, Cleora Vaughan, Sophomore, Donald Haggart, Freshmen, Lloyd Richards, Track, Charlie Foster, Tennis, Otto Krula. In addition to the regular issues of The Volante, special issues repre- senting various organizations on the campus have been put out as follows: Sophomore issue - that glorious one in red and white - with Milfred Mehring as editor, Amphictyon issue, in the hands of Cassius Congerg Senior issue, with Pearl Hile at the helm, Athenian issue, edited by Doris Hudson, and two English issues. No paper, either collegiate or commercial, can possibly succeed with- out its advertisers, and to the business men of the city of Grand Island great credit is due for their generosity in supporting The Volante. Their advertising makes a paper possible at Grand Island College, and The Volante furnished them with a valuable and economical advertising medium. The support of President Wells, with his regular column, and of other members of the faculty in requested contributions, has all contrib- buted to make The Volante the success it has been.

Need of an organization wherein students with ability in in- strumental music could express themselves in organized effort has been felt in the past, and the college took steps this year to reach this end in securing the services of Leland M. Gobel, a junior, to direct an orchestra. Mr. Gobel was last year assistant director of the University Band at the University of Nebraska, and is a cornetist of considerable experience and great ability. The Orchestra has made a number of public appearances this year, always being well received. It has appeared at the Majestic theatre, on several occasions at the Baptist church, at the Salem church, at the tri- state convention of the Women's Missionary Society, and at the bacca- laureate services and commencement exercises of the college, in addition to several appearances in chapel. On April 9th the Orchestra broadcasted a program, in conjunction with the Glee Club from Radio Station KMMJ, at Clay Center. The work of the Orchestra in its first year has been very pleasing, and it is hoped the organization may continue to function in the college.
