G E R M A N C L U B Professor Rutar mans the projector to unveil another reel of German culture. Under the direction of Professor Sidney Rutar the German Club had another successful year. The club gave the serious German student an opportunity to see examples of German culture by means of the motion picture media. The films were obtained from the German Consulate in New York. The club also concerns itself with gaining a greater knowledge of the German language. The officers of the club worked closely with Professor Rutar in their efforts to make things run smoothly. The officers are: Lou Juhasz-Presi-dent. Vice President Jerry Benez. Treasurer James Mitchell. Recording Secretary Wally Clare and Corresponding Secretary Frank Bonavita.

I.R.C. listens to debate on Civilian Review Board. Brother Theodore Campbell and Dr. James J. Flynn. Saint Francis College achieved the distinction of being the only school in New York State to have all four candidates. Adding to this success were the appearances of Member of Congress Hugh Carey and Secretary of State of New York John P. Lomenzo; a debate between two prominent lawyers On the Civilian Review Board issue; a mock election, and club treasurer John Szulwach's appointment to The Post of Member-at-Large in the national IRC. The Spring program was somewhat less successful. Invitations to Martin Luther King. Jr. and Arthur Goldberg were extended. However, both were unable to visit the college. However, before semester’s end John J. McCloy. member of the Warren Commission and former High Commissioner of Germany, will have addressed the club and the annual High School Convention will have taken place. The attempt to revitalize the Voung Conservatives. Liberals and Democrats was fairly successful. However. participation in the Republican Club, the CCUN and the AIRC was less than desirable. After that first hectic month both the Moderator and President prophesized that the remainder of the year would be anticlimatic. They were quite correct. 17
