WOMEN STUDENTS A.W. S., a national organization of undergraduate women, sponsored two main speakers, in the fall Nurse Newton, a representative of the cadet nursing program, and, in the spring, Mrs. Kent Wallace, A. A. U.W. president for the state of Nevada. The annual spring fashion show, scholarship money- maker, was another highlight of spring. A Women ' s War Council tea was held at the A.T.O. house to incorporate war work on the campus. The campus Red Cross chapter found many activities to supply the girls with war work. To maintain closer cooperation among the women ' s groups and campus organizations, a recrea- tional program was installed, con- sisting of voluntary competitive outdoor exercise.

HELENE BATJER: Batch ; first woman pres- ident of A. S.U.N. Her pleasing personality and efficiency proved women ' s ability to lead campus affairs Assemblies have been few and far between this year. Of real in- terest was Homecoming when we stood in a moment ' s silence for the late Dean of Women, Mrs. Lucile B. Benson. On National Students day, Dr. Wiederhold re- minded us of the sacrifices of the European students. The Freshmen- Sophomores presented a novelty assembly hour in January. March featured the Junior-Senior classes on the stage. Last good one was the Mackay Day assembly, which was quite different from previous Mackay assemblies. Our year was closed with installation of new officers and the departing students wishing them best of luck. ASSOCIATED STUDENTS Left: Windy weather doesn ' t keep the smile from Prexy Batch ' s face. Right: Enthusiastic singing shows that a smaller Nevada still has its same spirit — but how we miss those male voices! ■■! .i.. .
