Young Republicans Club The greatest success of the year for the Young Democrats was the student produc- tion, Point of Order , a documentary of the Army-McCarthy hearings of 1954. The play was conceived, directed, and produced by chairman Robert Martin, with invalua- ble 'help from faculty members Dr. Bow- ditch and Dr. Doss. The play on Senator joe McCarthy, a well known figure in Wisconsin politics, was well attended by both students and townsfolk and was done on a purely non-partisan basis, thus draw- ing people on all points of view. It is the hope of the Young Democrats that such projects may continue so as to interest the students of Ripon College, re- gardless of their political afiiliations. In planning for an active 1966-67 year, the Democrats wish to make such projects the comerstone of their program. Oflicers for the year were president Chris Small, September to December, and Robert Martin, january to May, minister of eco- nomics, Greg Potegal, vice-president Al Martorana, secretary Rene Adams, and public relations director David Franco. The Ripon College Young Republican Club increased its membership in the 1965- 66 school. year from 75 to 203 students, al- most one quarter of the Ripon College stu- dent body. The club was ably directed by president Bill Cramer, vice-president Steve Vernier, treasurer David Thobaben, and secretary Elizabeth Follett. Assisting them on the club's executive board were Peter Bird, past president, Trudy Bridge, pub- licity, Bob Protzman, membership, David Zerfoss, social, and Carol Harrison, record- ing secretary. The club's program this year included sponsoring Governor's night activities at Ripon with Governor Warren Knowles as guest speaker. Bill Steiger, a candidate for congress and a previous assemblyman in the Wisconsin legislature was also a guest speak- er. There were many discussions and various other programs sponsored by the club. The most outstanding event of the year was the voting of the Wisconsin State Col- lege Young Republican Executive Board to award Ripon College Young Republican Club the most outstanding college Young Republican Club in the state of Wisconsin. The presentation of the award took place at the annual Wisconsin Young Republican Convention May 1, at the Pioneer Motel in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Young Democrats Club
