THE MARCONIAN LITERARY SOCIETY The object of this society is to develop the characters of the members spiritually, socially, culturally, and intellectually. Through the efforts of this elite group, experience and cultural entertainment in the field of literary activity is provided. The elasticity of the organization is apparent in the variety of the meetings. The opening meeting of the year was one which was certainly “packed” full of excitement. Gus Kubish led us in a lively song service, after which a sentimental number was rendered by our beloved George Meyers. He played and sang the well-known national anthem of his homeland, Afghanistan. Later, a caricature of the campus wolf (Guess Who?) was portrayed by our worthy Robert Conner. We then adjourned the meeting to enjoy the sweet cider and cookies in the next room. The highlight in activities for the season was a joint meeting with ‘The Patrician Literary Society,’’ in which the production, ‘When Knighthood Was in Flower,’ was presented. This play, which had “Chivalry” as its theme, was written and directed by Pete Smick. In every meeting there is always a devotional program prepared to stimu- late the spiritual life of the members. The society hopes to enlarge its membership and increase its number of activities in the future. 98

PATRICIAN LITERARY SOCIETY It is the purpose of the Patrician Literary Society to encourage its members along social and cultural lines. With these aims in view, two meetings a month are held, at which time a program is presented by the members. To have each girl in the Society take an active part in the programs is one of our dims. The Society got off to a good start this year with its opening program, “Memories of Summer,’ which was an open meeting to introduce itself to the new students. As a result of this meeting a large number of new members were added to the “Lit.” It was at the next meeting, which had as its theme “Giving Thanks,” that these new members were inducted. The climax of the year came when the Patrician and Marconian Societies met in a joint meeting. At that time an original one-act play, When Knight- hood Was in Flower,” was presented. Everyone who was there will agree that it was a royal success. With the talent of our new members added to that of our old, we can hopefully look forward to even greater success in the future. o7

THE KING'S PAGE MIRIAM LARSON, Editor-in-chief VIRGINIA LEA STOWE, News Editor ROBERT WILSON, Feature Editor JOHN LUBANSKY, Sports Editor BANKS DOGGETT, Business Manager MR. ROBERT DAVIES, Faculty Advisor Every other Thursday night the King’s College office is a swirl of activity, as typewriters click out the columns of The King’s Page, and scratching pencils condense and variate. The staff derive both benefit and enjoyment from this experience; and to be exact, perhaps a few gray hairs. This is the secondary activity which must occur before The Page goes into produc- tion. The primary energy is generated from those whose resulting writing talent and cooperation are displayed as the substantial matter. No selective group can successfully initiate a paper. The interest, talent, and suggestions of all the students are the core of satisfactory completion. With unity within our ranks, we endeavor to promulgate the news, and to emanate the spiritual highlights, while placing before you your classmates’ writing talents. As lighting adds touch to a picture, it is our desire that The King’s Page add a beneficial effect to each student. We know this aim can only be fulfilled if our school paper pursues the course set forth as King’s motto, “Serving the King of Kings.’ The King’s Page is for you through Him. og
