SENATE RIFLE CLUB The Rifle Club is composed of girl members interested in the sport of shooting. The club took part in competition with the members of the R. O. T. C. rifle squad two times in the past year, and each team had one victory to its credit. The members received entertainment and instruc- tion from motion pictures dealing with the proper methods of using a rifle. The four positions for shooting are the main points on which the members practice. The club meets every Tuesday in the school's rifle range. The faculty sponsor is Miss Charlotte E.

The Senate affords an excellent opportunity for any Shortridge student who is interest ed in the functions of government and its problems. Since its founding in 1887 under Laura Donnan, it has become an established Shortridge tradition. Russell V. Sigler is its present sponsor. Due to the present War situation, the past year has been an important one in the Sen- ate's history. They passed laws declaring War on Germany, Italy, and Japan, and established a war labor board. Another law passed this year abolished capital punishment in the United States.

PRESS CLUB The Press Club, made up of members of the Echo staffs, met during- the year with Mr. Wilkerson as sponsor. Its purpose is to aid junior journalists. At one meeting Mr. Yeager of the Indianapolis Star was a guest speaker. He helped to create perfumed ads and has had much experience in newspaper work. The third page of our own Echo pre- sented a major problem and club members discussed solutions for it. A banquet in May closed the club's activities for the year.
