..x...-..,... .. PRE-MED What's this, another Pre-Med club field trip? They're certainly keeping up their rec- ord for being one of the most active clubs in school, aren't they? They've been going somewhere almost every week-end lately. I Where're they going now? Speedway hospital. At the county hospi- tal a few weeks ago, they watched an op- eration and everything. Who gives them all this pep, anyway? Bill Aten's president. I think he's prob- ably back 'of a lot of it. They put on a swell assembly, didn't they? Was it that shadow skit? That sure was a clever piece of work. The singers from North Central College were Good too. I always like the Pre-Med exhibit for Open-house night. They make slides for microscopes, skin cats and everything. Who's the adviser of that club? Mr. Shelley. I believe he organized it back in l925. Say, that's an old club, isn't it? COMMERCE What did you think of that blonde who conducts the Commerce Club around the Northwestern University campus? Not bad, and she sure added to the in- terest and' impressiveness of the trip. That tour must have raised the com- merce students' hopes, they went right out and secured a speaker, A. W. Hendrickson, who talked on investing the excess family income in securities. Were you at the assembly when Tiben- sky and Mazunaitis did that man-on-the- street act. I thought that was pretty good. They had some fun, I guess. Say what's this 'Aids of Ability' you hear so much about. y Oh, that's the bulletin published by the Commerce Club and sent to employers. It's a method of securing positions for Com' merce Club grads. Say, that's a really worthwhile piece of work. I bet that helps the students a lot. lust being a member of the club helps them by increasing their understanding of the business world through personal contact with it. That really makes it a practical club to join. Yo uare actually helped materially. 0 Mr. P. I.

ND 121.1-is formed a chapter of Alpha Pi Epsilon, a national honorary fraternity. Each year the faculty chooses new members on the basis of scholarship, leader- ship, character and service. The selection comes in the' spring. Of course, only sophomores are eligible. ' A H That's something like the regular Honor Society-at least in its standards. Yes, but this is only for secretarial students. ' Didn't they put out some-sort of newspaper or magazine during the year? Yes. They call it 'Steno-Printsf lt contains original stories, jokes, and poems. They also write up summaries of their field trips. f 'Do they have field trips, too? Sure, and they have' demonstrations of the dictaphone, mimeograph, and other office machines. Sometimes successful business people give lectures for them. ' Say, that certainly is an active club. They really get things done. IAL i Yes, and from those like the Chess and Checker or Bowling clubs you learn things that are always fun to know, things that help you along socially. I wonder which things we remember most, those learned in classes or out of them. l believe our class work is a foundation and the other work we do supple- ments it and makes it more interesting. Have you ever noticed that people usually remember the fun of college more than the drudgery of studying all the time? . Yes, when a couple of old grads get together they always talk about the fun they had getting the paper out or something like! that rather than of studies. g , - I know one thing, I wouldn't think 'ofgoing through school without partici- pating in extra-curricular activities. A 'They sure add a lot to college life.

CHENHSTRY What is that odor in the front hall? That's probably an up-and-coming young chemist demonstrating something at the chemistry club meeting. :iWell, I hope it's successful, Whatever it is. If anyone lives through all that, he de- serves success. Let's go up and see what they're doing. Well, I'll try anything once. Say, they're not conducting any experi- ment-it's just a discussion of places to go for their next field trip. They don't seem to mind the smoke in here. - Oh, I suppose one gets used to it. Is that Harvey Posvic who is president? I think so. Ed Koranda was president the first semester, I believe. Say, from the Way they talk, that trip to the Universal Oil Company must have been interesting. I'd have liked to see the Abbott labora- tories, too. y Why, it's almost Worth taking chemistry to visit some of those places, isn't it? Oh, the club is open to anyone in- terested. ' ENGINEERS Say, what's the mob doing at the main entrance? Those are the engineers-they're going down to Purdue for the Week-end. What for? To see the school. The Engineers' club plans a trip down there every year. I bet they have a good time. I Wouldn't doubt it. They usually go to Illinois and Wisconsin too. In that Way the boys get a chance to see What's ahead of them. Is that all they do-learn what school is going to be? Oh, no, this last semester the program was tied up with the class of General En- gineering Problems. They learned a lot. Mr. Pinlayson's the adviser, isn't he? Sure, They've had some interesting field trips besides those to the schools, too. Where'd they go? They Went out to the Municipal Airport, Corn Products Refining Company, Universal Oil Company, and some other places. The officers of that club have done a dandy job. Yes, they really get things done.
