MAGIC CLUB We raise our head, sniff the air, and canter off to what may he referred to as a flying start. Before going into the usual legerdemains, we observe the dramatis personnae who comprise this charming group of Thurstons. A majority of damsels young, old, in-betweenish, poor, affluent, sentimental, cynical, plain or chic, who find themselves somewhat baffled by voodoo “hut voo don’t mind.” A pack of cards, and a few aspirin, spliced hankies, some crumbs of chalk sprinkled with a verbal polka, and instructions at the Magic Club under Mr. Hoadley’s competent direction. Such conjuration will satisfy tliat foolish, ever-present, subconscious urge, to outdo Newton’s law, and to walk where all hut devils fear to tread. EVELYN FENTON

SKETCH CLCB The decoration speaks for itself. Pleasant hours of constructive criticism and enter- taining conversation, with Mr. Philhrick as our “arbiter elegantiarum” characterized the meetings of the Sketch Club. They were informality itself. No afternoons could have been more worthwhile, no afternoons could have been more amusing than those spent in C-7, every other Friday. The exhibitions not only were interesting to the eye, hut they afforded us an insight into the work of our contemporaries different from that which we were accustomed to see each day in the studios. Outstanding among the contributors to the Sketch Club showings were “Charlie” Demotropolis, and Boh Grady whose one-man shows appeared at frequent intervals during the year. We are now looking forward to the annual exhibition, which always brings forth a great many fine pieces of work, and a multitude of interesting comments from those who attend.
