To us this year, as new members, came Janette Dorrance and Berenice Wennerlund from the University of.M1ch1gan: Mary Pollack, Waynesburg College: Jean Schumann, the University of Wisconsin: and Anita Spedden, Western Maryland. The Oflicers elected were to serve two yearsf President, Lucy Sawyer: Secretary, Mary Pollock: and Treasurer, Jean Schumann. Gertrude Crawford was elected Student Government Aide.
