The Physics Club, as it has been in the past, was formed for those students desiring to take the College Board in this subject. The phases to be covered in this Held are the Atomieal, Electrical and Mechanical. Each . will be dealt with so completely that we shall be well prepared for the College Boards. Physics not being the easiest subject to do well in, will require much time: but ir will be worth the while if we get into the college that we choose. The Physics Review has a two-fold purpose: one, as mentioned above, all for College Boards, two, to enable those boys who intend taking it in college to have that much more of an advantage over those students who are not fortunate enough to have a club of this nature. This year the club is under the direction of Mr. Kendrick, one of Memorial's able faculty, who with his patience and knowledge of the subject as- sures us of an adequate preparation. Officers of the club are as follows: president, james Diamondg vice-president, Alan Aronsong secretary, Fred Radall.

From the time the doors of 328 are opened to eager customers, till the day when the bulletin echoes the names of the absent- minded, the Ring Committee is faced with orders, complaints, trials, and tribulations. 0 4 One thing the members do learn about during their term is human nature. They meet all kinds. For instance the Silas Mar- ner of the school who brings his fortune in small denominations-pennies. Then, there is the complainer whose ring is too big. There are always a few skeptics. They pull the ring, push it, bang it, and drop it making sure .theirs isn't a dud. Of course, no pur- chase is ever complete without the returnees. whose war cry is : My ring is fading away Can't understand it. Our Worthy ring man always solves that problem by either proving the ring was unconsciously dipped in sulfuric acid, or accidently coated with a generous amount of mercury. But through all the complaints, through all the bulletins inform- ing us that the Ring Man will return just one more time the Ring Committee emerges victorious and successful.
