H THE FOUNDERS . . . Mark Krystal, Carole Weisman, William Novak. A New Group Brings Foreign Films for Student Entertainment It started with a small group and an interested member of the faculty. Something was lacking in the area of student entertainment. The gap, they felt, could be filled by the presentation of foreign films. It meant work if they wanted to be successful . . . and work they did. First the formation of a committee of interested students, the campaign of the bulletin boards, notices in the Observer. They wrote to rental companies, received names ancl prices, selected several films and students voted. When the first film was finally chosen and scheduled for showing at the Military Park the battle was half over. And it was surprisingly easy to fill Duffield Hall to capacity.

Gallery of Thought in Art, Literature and . . Poetry A magazine, a literary magazine. Poetry alone, they knew, could not attract all students. They needed prose - good prose - some art work and perhaps a few pictures. Something new. . . Gallery needed something to appeal to more people. An all-out cam- paign to collect material from every representative field, from the faculty as well as the students, trans- lations as well as original works. This was what Gal- lery needed. The bulletin boards were attacked with eye-catching posters, people were contacted ancl con- vinced. . . Gallery got its material. . . Gallery has reached all students. Gallery, a literary magazine for everyone. With no office, the staff was forced to hold its first meeting in Washington Park.
