The inauguration of elective membership seems to have been an incentive to join and the membership has increased from fifteen to thirty. Under the direction of Mrs. Ivor F. Torrey the club has had a busy year. In the F all semester a concert was given on November 2nd at Davis, and though the audience was in fact a small one the program was rendered as if to thousands. The same concert was given at Woodland and was enthusiastically received. In the Spring semester all effort was directed toward the Operetta, ctIn the Garden of the Shahtt which was produced on March 28, at the Varsity Theatre. This was a novel presentation for Davis and was made possible Only by the ladies of the community who assisted in chorus work and feminine parts. Costuming and scenic effects were worked up to a point heretofore never approached and so gratifying was the result that requests to play the piece in their home town were made by numerous people in the district surrounding Davis. The Glee Club has been very fortunate in having for an accom- ist Miss Maude Luft. Especially fortunate in a place where there are so few pianists. A popular branch of the Glee Club was the California Aggie Quartet whose selections were in great demand. Perhaps the crowing achieve- ment was the radio program rendered by them; broadcasted from Kimball-Upson C0. of Sacramento. Letters of commendation were received from places as distant as Hamilton, Montana. 1311

A great deal of effort has been expended by the offlcers to bring before the Round Table speakers who have had many years experience and who consequently have a definite and worthwhile message to deliver. Interspersed between the meetings with speakers have been those at which timoviesi, of interesting subjects were presented in a pleasing manner. The Round Table has been active in promoting interest in orchard judging and has not only secured competition with other colleges, but has taken upon itself the promoting of interest in this subject in the high schools. Mr. W. P. Duruz has given a great deal of his time and energy to the students interested in orchard judging, and it is here that. the Round Table wishes to express an appreciation of this service. The orchard judging committee has been very active and numerous trips have been made throughout the surrounding country. The trips were planned with the idea of covering a great deal of ground and of giving the students as much practical experience in this work as was possible. The trips have not been confined to restricted areas, but were made to different sections of the country. The number of students who took part in these tours is ample proof of their success. . To secure funds for its varied activities a movie show was given and the annual dance is being planned for some time later in the semester. Much of the success of this organization has been due to the officers. They have worked conscientiously in order that the meetings might be both interesting and instructive. Certainly their efforts have been well rewarded. E331
