The pop- ularity of swing, this season suggested the theme of the yearbook. Early in the spring semester an intensive advertising campaign was profitable enough to insure a leather cover for the booky the first in the history of the school. A contest was held by the Oracle staff to determine the most outstanding graduates, and resulted in the Hall of Fame. l26l FQRTNIGHTLY Bringing the Fortnightly make-up up to date, the staff let the quips fall Where they may and streamlined it. Putting baby to sleep every other Friday, the staff re- organized the entire journalistic style from the conservative to the but-definitely mod- ern. The most carefully guarded bit of dope has been Kampus Kopy. Scorned by whomever it publicize-s, it's the first column the gossip-conscious student body reads.

CC-EDS CLUB MEN'S CLUB The co-eds swing right into line and are certainly in the groove tot college litel. This semester the girls have made the Lounge comfortable as well as attractive with additional furniture. Here hep-cats and studes alike mingle in a homey at- mosphere-here books, candy, and cards iight tor top honors and occasional tables -here light laughter vs. turrowed brow. Open-house is the high-spot in recent doings where a jive session furnished wreck- reactionf' Informal teas, club parties, and just plain bridge round out co-ed hospitality. i25l This year marked a change in the admin- istration ot the Men's Club, with the election ot twelve men to form a board of governors. These governors met twice a month, and in their hands were the problems of the club members, concerning activities, studies, and sports. lntra-mural teams of baseball and basketball were organized under their lead- ership. Chess and ping-pong equipment, and furniture for the lounge was purchased by this board.

r-. E . I t.. SOCIAL COMMITTEE During the summer the orientation com- mittee assisted in planning the social events for the orientation program. New students were welcomed to the college by means of a reception, an informal party, and teas. They were also given student counselors. Realizing that three days is insufficient for new students to get into the swing of college activities, the orientation committee contin- ued as a social committee. I Won't Dance , was the problem that faced the Social Committee, last fall. To help solve it, the committee gave several afternoon tea dances at Alumni Hall. Music was furnished by phonograph records pur- chased by them and refreshments of apples and lolly pops were added attraction. Eve- ning dances gave us riotous entertainment by the students and music by Perry Kinzie's orchestra.

Membership in this organization is limited to students with a B average for the pre- vious college work. The main activity of these young geniuses this semester has been the organization of a tutoring system where- by Beta Phi Kappa members tutor students desiring help in some course. I27l
