R efvwrlmnevzts All work and no play makes jane a dull girl. That's why we have the Social Committee. When a girl looks back over her four years in college she remembers not only lessons, classes, and examinations, but her social activities as well. These activities, most of which are dances, are managed by the Social Committee. Nine girls take complete charge of the dances throughout the college year. These girls are appointed by the chairman of the committee who is elected from the Senior members of the committee by the student body. The committee includes 'four Seniors, three Juniors, and two Sophomores. Each dance is chaperoned by several faculty members and a member of the Social Committee receives. Miss Rena Allen is the official faculty advisor. The Social Calendar this year included six dances: Hallowe'en Dance, Christ- mas Dance, BLUE AND GOLD Dance, Spring Formal, lVIay Dance and the Farewell Hop. The committee also sponsors several Open Houses, which are very informal dances held in the Hilarium. The last dance of the year, the Farewell Hop, is planned by the next year's committee. cxxxvi

B wines: Mavzagev' All those students who are particularly interested in writing seek admittance to Press Club, for it is that organization which publishes Pambo, the Women's College literary magazine. This year has been the sixth year that Pambo has been successfully published. The first issue appeared in 1928 with the inspiring motto, Darkling, I keep my sunrise-aim,', and since then has appeared three times yearly-Christmas, Spring, and Graduation. This year, however, the Graduation issue was waived and a Centenary number published. Both alumnze and undergraduates contributed to this special issue. In the last two years, several new departments have been added to Pambo, among which are :Tot Pourri, a department for short sketches, The Craftsmen, which tells a bit about the Writers themselves, and The Foreign Contingent, in which articles in French, German, and Spanish appear.

W. C. A. has for its purpose the creating of a spirit of friendliness and comradeship among the students, and the stimulating of a desire for open- mintled discussion and the study of Christian ethics. The Y is the organization that sponsors the big-and-little sister movement. The Y promotes the matin services which are held each Sunday morning in the Hilarium. In September, 1933, a candle light service was held at which service the Freshmen were initiated into the college Y. W. C. A. In December, the YH held a Japanese sale, and in May, a picnic to which all the students were invited. In addition, monthly meetings have been' held throughout the year and represen- tatives have been sent to the Y. XV. C. A. district conferences. cxxxvii
