MEMBERS, MEDICAL HISTORY CLUB, 1939-1940 The Medical History Club was founded in the spring of 1932 by Dr. O. Larsell, Professor of Anatomy. The membership consists each year of twelve to Hfteen seniors. Monthly meetings are held for presentation of topics of medical history by members of the club. Many of the papers have been on the history of medical practice in various parts of the Pacinc Northwest, so that potentially valuable material is being accumulated in this field. Other? papers have been on the history of various branches of clinical and scientific medicine. The club affords a medium for informal discussion of the general background of medicine and of intensive study of the Helds in which individual members are interested.

ALUMNAE ASSOCIATION Organized in l92l under the creative influ- ence of Mrs. Emma jones, the present Alum- nae Association, now two hundred strong, has gained ground and stands signihcantly as one of the outstanding groups of this campus. i To preserve professional relationships, create good will and companionship among the graduates, and to cultivate pertinent in- terests to nursing have been their primary objectives. Scattered thro-ughout the city and state in public health, ofhc-es, clinics, hospitals, industry, and o-ther related fields, the gradu- ates have found opportunity to convene at monthly meetings and discuss social and business projects. An Alumnae-Senior ban- quet has become a traditional project of the group and the seniors have come to look forward to this outstanding spring event. Present officers are: Margaret Graham, president, Vera Pinkerton, vice presi- dent, and Ellen Stadius, secretary-treasurer. 7 BIARGARET G'RAH.-ABI VERA PINKERTON ELLEN STADIUS N U RSES' ASSOCIATION The beginning of school in early September diverted talk of summer and vacations and set the-nurses' home buzzing with more serious minded activities.
