Charming ladies current on world affairs are Current Events Club ofhcers: Carla Rinehart, secretary; Carolyn Ondus, treasurer; Vicki Bienko, vice-president; and Judy Biros, president. Current Events Club The United States versus the USSR. Self-rule in Africa? China in the United Nations? Disarmament? World peace? These are some of the questions which led to the formation of a Current Events Club by the students at St. John College. Under the able guidance of Monsignor Basil Haren, the moderator, members delve into world affairs so that they can better understand these issues in the light of Catholic philosophy. Members of the Current Events Club are entitled to the privileges of collegiate membership in the Cleveland Council on World Affairs. They participate in a mock U.N. Assembly, lectures, panels and workshops. A special project of the Club is the furnishing of a tape-recorded summary of the weeks news to various convents in the community. Delegates to the Mock United Nations Assembly held March 4, 1960 at Western Reserve University plot and ponder a serious problem in accord with the philosophy of the countries they represent.
