R AY Lrxcu The Student Council was organized for the express purpose of bringing about closer co-operation between the student body and the faculty. lt was composed of representatives of the various organizations and of the student group at large. At the beginning of the year it elected its own oflicers with the approval of the dean. Meetings were held every two weeks in order to discuss current problems facing the student body. The councils power consisted of making recommenda- tions to the faculty, directing the social activities of the college, and recommend- ing the disbursement of the activity fee. The first major activity which the Student Council undertook this season was the Fall Ifornial in the boys' gym. Each month it sponsored a college party, and on May 18 the Spring liormal was held under its promotion. lt put on a spirited pep meeting for the basketball team just before it entered the state conference. ln the line of inter-collegiate activities, delegates were sent to the first Student Council Conference of junior Colleges at La Grange during the fall term. A second conference of this type was held in our own college on April 1-l with the borne council in charge. Edward Camp was the presiding officer for the day. Roundtable conferences of all extra curricular activities were held in the morn- ing, while the main feature of the afternoon was an oratorical contest.

The German play was under the direction of Miss Clarke, the French under the direction of Madame M. Babcock, and the English under the direction of Miss Dickinson. The plays were very clever and amusing and were received enthusiastically by the audience. Morton Junior College of Cicero presented a musical and dramatic program before the club for the April meeting. The first section of the program was made up of numerous musical selections on a variety of instruments. The second part consisted of three short plays, very humorous in nature, and the last part of the program was made up of more musical numbers. As a whole, the program was very well planned and presented, and was certainly well received by the students. The last meeting of the club was held on May 7 in the auditorium. A program made up of talent found among the students of the school was presented. It was very well attended, as the parents and friends of the studentswere cordially invited. Mayanne Flaherty played the violin, and was accompanied by Ernestine XVarfel at the piano. june Ericksen gave a reading, and Frank Anderson played a clarinet solo: Edna Powers, accompanied by Reeva Levin, sang a vocal solo. An ensemble composed of Russell Smith, Ralph Barclay, Edward Camp, Roger Conkling, and Julius Turk presented several numbers: and a Hawaiian guitar trio, D. Carlos, Alva and XYanda Hall, played a number of Hawaiian and Spanish selections. Besides the above-mentioned numbers, the Junior College Chorus and the junior College Orchestra were heard in several selections each, and a dance number was put on by a group of Junior College girls. The College Club meetings during the past year were very successful, and if a better series of programs is to be put on next year, the officers and students will have to do their very best. 4..,..Q...,,4 Junior College Chorus The Junior College Chorus is composed of students who enjoy singing, whether they have had any special musical training or not. The purpose of this organiza- tion is to promote good music in our college and to give the collegians an oppor- tunity to make the most of their musical talent in this line. The Chorus has appeared before the College Club a number of times during the course of the latter's programs and has sung for various other Junior College functions. Un April 1-l it appeared before the big conference in gloliet. During the latter part of the semester the entire chorus was actively engaged in preparation for its part in the opera Aida, which was successfully presented by the high school on April 27, 193-l. Two of the members of this chorus. Mrs. Bernice Evans, soprano, who sang the role of the High Priestess, and Mr. Arthur Eneix, tenor, who sang the part of the messenger, were cast in leading roles. The Chorus met twice each Week for rehearsal. It has been together for the past three years and is doing better work each season under the capable direction of Miss Isabelle Boyd.

B oB lrlL.x'1'c ll 1,141 Y Founded only two years ago to continue the good times and tine fellowship of the High School-Y, the 'lunior College-Y Club grew to twenty members during its third year. The club was organized with definite motives and objectives in mind, and about these was built the program for the year, Besides the sponsorship of Mr. ilurden, the club was possessed of an unusually active set of ofticers, who arranged and executed a series of interesting meetings, held every other XYednesday at the Y. M. C. A. These were in the nature of dinners with speeches afterward by persons outside of the club. During the course of the year the members had the privilege of hearing such speakers as Mr. Warren, Mr. Camp, Miss Harns, Mr. Douglas, Mr. Thomson, and Mr. Ranne. In addition to these regular dinner meetings the club co-operated with the other Y clubs to give the annual Date, Father and Son, and Mother and Son Banquets. As guests of honor at the Father and Son llanquet were two notable Hobs, Bob Elson of WGN and Bob Burke of the VVashington Senators. Early in the year members also went into the woods for a series of steak fries. The attendance at the meetings and the enthusiasm of the members attest the fact that this club, during the past year, succeeded in the purpose for which it was organized.
