In an effort to perpetuate the ideals of both the college and the association, we have introduced the new idea of open discussions. It has been the plan to hold at least two meetings a month and at that time discuss the problems that are nearest to us, whether here at college or in the world. At Christmas time the members gave a party for the children of the community, thereby continuing a precedent which was established many years before. This year we had the largest membership that the Y.W.C.A. has had in many years. We wish to take this opportunity of thanking Dean Williams for her splendid co-operation and interest in making our HY the success it was this year. fittY-six

' I ANNE HACKETT President ; dag, I u MARGARET HUDSON, Vice-President DOROTHEA FREED Secretary ANNE HACKETT Librarian THE THALIA Dramatic Club has as its object to promote friendly interest in dramatics and to further the work of the Speech Department by the presentation of plays. Early in October a tea was held in Metzger Hall for the new students interested in dramatics. The presidents of both the Thalia Club and Alpha Psi Omega gave short talks on the aims and ambitions of both clubs, as well as short sketchings of the programs for the year. Membership is obtained by earning a certain number of points for crew work, acting, backstage work, publicity, directing or any type of work connected with the stage. Thalia's greatest dramatic year was ushered in by Isabel Mackay's three act comedy, Goblin Gold. We had a theatre party at Ford's, seeing Maurice Evans in ttKing Richard the Second. A new undertaking tor the club was the holding of monthly meetings, at which modern plays and the theatre to today were discussed. At the end of the year many new members had been initiated into our ranks and as we close the 1938 season, we have a great feeling of enthusiasm for the drama and know that this has been a most successful year in our so short history.
