I] ' 1 Hughes AllMNI ASS ' N The promoting of a closer relationship between the administration, trustees, stu- dents, faculty, and alumni of the university is the main objective of the Alumni As- sociation of Svracuse University, celebrat- ing its seventy-fourth anniversary this vear. Chief co-ordinator on campus of all the association ' s activities is its executive- secretary, J. Winifred Hughes, whose smile and winning personality welcome all alums upon their return to the Hill. The big weekends find her especially busy arranging reunions, and all kinds of get-togethers for the visiting alums. Those generous donations from past Svracusans which make up the alumni Fund are constantly being used to expand facilities, courses, and faculty for the pro- mising post-war years ahead. Official pub- lication of the Alumni Association is the Alumni News, which is most popular with both young and old graduates as it keeps them in close contact with their Alma Mater. VARSITY CLUB All men who have won their university letter in a major or minor sport are eligible for membership in the Varsity Club. The outstanding personality connected with the club is its busy executive secretary, Auntie May Cra ndon. The Varsity Club ' s membership totals fifteen thousand men, and everyone marvels at the way Miss Crandon remembers each of her boys, even years after they have gradu- ated. One of the annual get-togethers of the club is a smoker held each year before the game on Colgate weekend. Various luncheons help to keep the activity calen- der filled, and on Alumni Day the club holds a big reunion dinner. Another of Miss Crandon ' s duties is to keep informed about her boys and with the help of undergraduates, to edit the Club News several times a year. Alay Crandon

Coming to Syracuse to studv from all over the country, the forty-tour women who comprise the dormitory deans or student deans have their hands full coun- seling and chaperoning houses of energetic coeds besides their obvious academic re- quirements. This group of women is headed bv Dean Hilton and her assistant, Miss Maude Stewart, who direct their various counseling and working activities. Each student dean remains at Syracuse for two years — and before leaving has ac- quired considerable experience in dealing with young people and their various problems. Hundreds of students tlock to the Stu- dent Infirmary each year with everything from sore throats and sniffles to sprained ankles and the measles. An enterinsr stu- dent ' s first glimpse of the Infirmarv is during his beginning days at Syracuse when he takes his admission physical ex- amination, but it usually isn ' t his last. The Student Health Service, reduced in wartime by a lack of personnel, is now resuming and expanding its scope of ac- tivities as soon as professional personnel can be contacted.
