STUDENT LEADERS THE SENATE . URING the past year, as in previous years, the Senate has taken an active and helpful part in college affairs. The most important thing that they have done was to initiate, under the leadership of Robert Muir, a fund for the new Field House. Speaking in Chapel on a Wednesday morning, Muir stated that it would be a simple job if everyone got behind the Senate in its drive for funds. S500 was to be raised by Commencement. I The most important thing that the Senate has done in activities outside the college was to help out the city of Hartford in its annual campaign for money for the Community Chest. And, as with the Red Cross Drive, boxes were distributed in the fraternity houses and on campus, and a substantial sum was raised for both very worthy causes. Several Senate dances' were held this year, the first one after the Coast Guard football game. Others were held from time to time, with the two held for raising money for the Field House actually making money. Freshman rules were once again in order this year, until abolished by the Senate just before Thanksgiving. A new mascot, Thurman, and a student band for football games were two of the other noteworthy projects carried through by the Senate. I ' 1 Fourteen A
