Dr. Charles F. Martin, prominent Montreal physician and former Dean of Medicine, was welcomed as Honorary President of the Society. Educationally, an effort was made to present at monthly meetings speakers who . t could give the potential physician some idea of life after graduation. McGill's active participation in the Canadian Interne Placement Service Q . was extended for an additional year. Great progress was made in strengthening the esprit de corps and unity of the faculty l by the introduction of a Faculty Informal Dance and a special Faculty Smoker to welcome the incoming Freshman Medical Class. The annual Medical Banquet was unusually well-attended and enjoyed, and the Medical Ball continued to be as successful as in former years. The Men's Common Room, after careful investigation, was redecorated and partially refurnished with comfortable new chairs. A Medico-Dental Committee was established with a view to sharing the responsibility for the management of the Common Room. Excellent support was given the M.U.S. by the Faculty in every aspect of its program.

Small enough for each member to know all the others, it is yet large enough to make room for a great many points of view. This year has seen the inauguration of monthly meetings, featuring speakers, de- bates, and films. A committee to present the challenge of Christian service to the youth of Montreal has been established. Intra-mural debating and sports have been supported by the members. The year has also been marked by an expansion of the social activities of the Society, which annually culminate in the banquet in honour of the graduating class. law undergrad. society Successfully weathering the addition of the Fourth Year, the L.U.S. continued to bind the students' interest in a pro- gram of recreational and educational activi- ties. One of its members held the top male student position of the campus- President of the Students, Society. Following established precedent, the year began with a welcoming reception for incoming students. The traditional Law Banquet in December was an equally outstanding event:-some out, few stand- ing. The Intramural Debating Trophy, won last year by the L.U.S., was defended. A series of inter-class debates was organ- ized, and a law journal was well on its way to publication. The crowning social function of the year, the Themis Ball, climaxed the Society's extensive and var- ied activities in the second term.

The purpose of the Association is to promote a spirit of friendship by means of various social activities and to foster co-operation with other campus societies. The McGill School for Graduate Nurses provides specialized training in various fields of nursing subsequent to graduation from a recognized hospital school of nursing. One or two year courses are offered to fit nurses for teaching, super- visory and administration positions-the one year course leading to a certificate, and the two year course leading to the degree of Bachelor of Nursing. Advanced studies in psychiatric, obstetrical and paediatric nursing are also offered. Many prominent personalities from var- ious professional fields were guest speakers at the school throughout the year. dental undergrad. society The D.U.S. represents students in all years in the Faculty of Dentistry. The meetings of the Society are monthly and efforts are made to secure speakers of varied fields of dentistry and the allied sciences. As well as these meetings, the Society organizes numerous social activities..These consist of one informal dance held in the fall, and the Dental Ball, held in the spring. The D.U.S. encourages the Dental stu- dents to participate in all featured sports. The Dental Bowling Team have won the first prize for two consecutive years. The Baseball Team is one of the top con- tenders in its league. The Basketball and the Touch Football Squads continually demonstrate their merits. The undergraduate body have their own faculty magazine called The McGill Den- tal Review which is published twice dur- ing the session, in January and in June. Soon to appear on the Campus will be a distinct Dental Crest. A competition was held, open to all students of the Faculty. After Faculty approval, the chosen crest will be made available to undergraduate and graduate students. Front - Christina Sinclair, Vice-Pres.g Carol Wacowich, Pres.g Isabel Anderson, Vice-Pres.
