Alumni Associaiion Object--The object of the association is the cultivation of fraternal intercourse among its members, and the advancement of the honor and interests of New York University Alumni. The Alumni Association was organized in 1927 under the leadership of Dr. john Loftus, Principal of Public School No. 80, Brooklyn, and now includes approximately three thousand members.. During the three or four years of its existence it has taken the initiative in the establishment of a large number of alumni chapters in many towns of several states. It has published a quarterly magazine known as Educational Service. This worthy organization contributed one hundred dollars to the erection of the new Education Building. It has had three annual luncheons, each attended by approxi- mately eight hundred people. It cooperated with Dr. Maximillian Rabus in the painting of a portrait of former Dean Ballier of the School of Pedagogy. This painting was given to the School of Education at the time of the annual luncheon in 1950. 118

I ,fu ' 33' ,Ll 5' The Sludenls' Camp Nestled 'neath the shady trees Lies our camp so dear Where the Lake Sebago flows Sparkling far and clear. EMORIES of our camp so dear that lies on Sebago's shores are running here and there, stirring emotions, pulling strings, making one feel that he should visit camp-talk to Judd Miller-look at the lake-sit at the fire circle -run to the athletic Held--eat in the Mess-hall and sleep in one of those perfectly ventilated bungalows. Through the generosity of Professor Nash and the help of .Miss Vollmer, the camp is made available for student groups. Students who have taken advantage of this opportunity have recommended a visit. to camp as a cure for Urbanitis. It is a rough road that leads from the highway to the spot on which the camp is located. In that spot is a circle of rocks and around that circle have occurred greet- ings and partings that have formed and sealed friendships. That rocky walk from the Saddle-Back to the lake has left bruises and other feelings with those who have walked its path. That little by-path to the mess-hall-no need to say anything about that. If only I could walk around that camp at this moment I would not feel lost. 120
