Let the reader form his own opinion of it from this book itself. Sulfice it to say, from a wholly unprejudiced standpoint, that any group of people who can produce a book like this simply must be good. Perhaps it would not be over-stating the facts to hint that this organization was one of the linest in the school. Its head and heart was its sponsor, Miss Bunch. Xliorking scrupulously and tirelessly, with a frequently none-toofco-operative staff, she brought out of what seemed at times a hopeless failure a book of which, we believe, the ,lunior College may well be proud. ln this task she was ably assisted by the editor, Marcus Piluth. The names of the other members of the staff may be found at the front of the book. Financial problems were not the least of the worries of the staff. Fortunately the yearbook had a capable business manager, George Vitoux, who with his assistants finally met the costs of production. Students of I. il. C. will not soon forget the many ingenious money-making plans which finally paid for this volume. In April the staff took an active part in the first Student Conference of the N. I. C. Besides the musical and dramatic phases of this meeting, a group of sectional discussions was held on various student activities. The publications division was attended by many members of the C. staff, and ideas gained there helped them to bring the production of this book to a successful completion.

Life around junior College would be rather empty and lureless as far as receiv- ing news, jokes, and what-not is concerned, if it xx'eren't for the presence of its now tive-year old publication, The l-llazer. This bi-momhly newspaper has the distinction of having a one-hundred percent circulation among college members, as the fee for its subscription is paid from the activity fund. Approximately forty other schools, from Maine to California, are on its exchange list. and the paid faculty subscriptions here in school total nearly thirty. 'lihe only jolt that is not done entirely by junior college journalists is the print- ing. lYriting, editing, makeup, business managing, and other tasks are all taken care of by students of rl. jl. C., who serve one and all without any reimbursement. Miss Lois Hyde is faculty sponsor, and her careful suggestions and timely advice have more than once showed the xray out of ditiiculties. Although The lllazeru is not a member of any collegiate press association, in spite of the fact that it has received invitations to become one. it sends several delegates annually to newspaper conventions, the latest having been held in Chicago this year. All ad and subscription money is used for art work. and any surplus at the end of the school term is turned over to the college. At least two of the present staff's members intend taking up journalism as their life career, one planning to enter the Meclill school at Northwestern next fall. If the students of -loliet junior College continue to get as big a kick out of reading The Blazer as the youthful writers do in getting it out, nothing will ever be lost, and a lot will have been gained.

Hum: Lang, Iiruseniark, tiussinuii, Herhold. ebate The College debate teams were accredited with four victories out of ten debates f-the affirmative winning from Morton, Harvey. and Latlrange. and losing to North Park and LaSalle, while the negative won its first debate at North Park and dropped the remaining. The atiirniative team was composed entirely of sophomores: Paul Gerhold. Ralph Gussman, and Marcus llluth. a veteran at the game. On the negative were -Tune Erickson, an experienced debater from high school, .lohn Lang, and Albert Krusemark. Each debater was presented with the attractive and distinctive gold key, except Marcus lflluth, who received the award last season. They were not the leader in the Conference this year as in past years. This was primarily attributed to the lack of seasoned and experienced debaters. for, as Mr. Myers staterl, lt was not lack of preparation or intelligence on the part of the teams. but it was lack of experience. The members were recruited from the class in debate. the subject no longer being considered extra-curricular since last year. Two credit-hours were given to the twelve diligent students of this seventh and eighth period class. Mr. Klyers, both a veteran debater and excellent coach, was the able and inspiring instructor. and it is his supreme wish that the UT. C. students will take an ever-increasing interest in this activity and avail themselves of its benetits in order that debate may become an important subject in the College curriculum. The primary purpose of this course in training students in ettective and logical reasoning, along with practical public speaking, was successfully accomplished. for latent and potential abilities in several students were brought to the front. and intelligent debate ability for the future was discovered.
