The l. R. CL, like all activities, was not started until the middle at the first semester, when Francis Maguire was elected President and Robert Bean Secv Tetary-Tt'casurer.

One ml the Clubis most interesting series 01 meetings was put on in the winter when the l. R. C. showed movies on Norway, Sweden and Denmark, and mzt-umpzmietl the films with a talk by Mr. Carl Becker, a native of Sweden. The I.R.C. has had a membership roster of about lil'teeu names this year. and it has remained alive and active, thanks to the unfailing aitl given to the group by Mr. John jaques, Faculty Adviser. The Club's onlyr disappointment was the fact that, alter Robert Bean and Brian Barnard had made plans to attend the New England Conference of I. R. 6., that conference was ealletl off because of insulilittieni registrations. We hope that the club will go on next year to continue its place among the established groups elL the Junior College.
