The in- terest throughout was exceedingly enthusiastic, and an amount of intense Work and study made each of the monthly meetings a delightful affair. Various phases of literature were discussed at the several meetings, including the short story, poetry, Southern literature, contemporary literature, the familiar essay, and others. A poetry contest vvas conducted by the club, first place going to Marian Deever, a freshman. Cn one occasion the dramatics department from Arkansas City Junior college presented a one- act play at the regular meeting. Q Perhaps the most outstanding achievement of the club was the publication of Hlhe Fledg- lingf' After a trial effort last year of pro- ducing a poetry booklet, interest and plans were carried forward this year until Hlhe Fledglingi' appeared, representing over sixty poems and thirty poets. To celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of Southvvesterni College, former graduates from the English de- partment vvere asked by the editor, Vivian Pike, to make contributions of poems to the magazine. Some of those sent in have already gained recog- nition in contemporary fields. Dr. l. Reese Marsh, head of the department of language and literature, is sponsor of the English Club. Mildred Stateler is president. Page 24

LCDCBTIS HE l.eneans, religious dramatic organization, were organized under the direction of Miss Edith Dielmann of the Southwestern School of Fine Arts in 1927. Each year they have given a new play at various places in the Southwestern Kansas Conference, both in churches and as a Lyceum number. This year the members chose and have pre- sented the play Hpaul and iheltlafi The pro- duction has been named by many as the best drama that The l.eneans have staged in all their history. Everywhere it has won approval. The play centers around paulis worl4 in lconium, where he is converting people to Christianity, among whom is lhelda, the First woman martyr. During his stay in lconium, paul is thrown into prison by 'lhelcla's lover. The story ends with 'l'hel4la's accepting Christianity and following paul. Tl-IE CAST Paul . ..,.
