Student Christian Association The Y.W.C.A. and the Y.M.C.A. have merged this year into a new wartime organization--The Student Christian Association, more commonly known as the S.C.A. The merger of the two groups is to continue as long as the war lasts, and, if it is successful, the two may remain together perma- nently. The Washburn S.C.A. is a part of the Rocky Mountain Region organization, sponsored by the Y.M.C.A. Under the able leadership of Barton Bayly and Marjorie Titus who work as co-chairmen, and Dr. Harold E. Conrad, faculty sponsor, the S.C.A. is off to a line start. Meetings are held every other Tuesday at the houses of the various organizations Y BARTON BAYLE on the campus. Guest speakers inform the mem- bers on subjects of current interest. The S.C.A. is working whole heartedly for the war effort, and it is establishing a worthy service to the boys in uniform by its issuance of a monthly news letter to' former Washburnites. The S.C.A. is also advocating the establishment of a room for Washburn sailors to use for writing letters, play- ing games, and reading. At Christmas time the group entertained the navy barracks by singing carols. Committees ap- pointed from the membership of the S.C.A., by the Co-chairmen handle all plans for functions of this WPC- 'Nt MARJORIE Page Thirty-on

Every year tryouts are held in which the prospective member must submit two manuscripts of fifteen hundred words. These manuscripts may include themes, poetry, short stories, essays or anything that the contestant desires. This year there were over twenty manuscripts entered and approximately fifteen were selected for second tryouts and later election to the club. In the monthly meetings, manuscripts are read' and freely discussed. In past years the members have often submitted their best works to the publication, Obrervatory, to which Professor Colburn, Professor Zimmerman, Constance Van Natta and others have submitted works. Patty Priddle is president of the organization and Dr. Van Schaak is the sponsor. INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB As the war enters its third year, Washburn students -- navy and civilians alike - are taking advan- tage of the International Relations Club, as it provides an excellent opportunity for the discussion of current problems. A well informed speaker is guest at each of the monthly pot-luck suppers and his informal talk is followed by a round table discussion. In these discussions the group does not attempt to make definite conclusions, it tries only to consider international problems from various angles. The Sunday night meetings are held at the different sorority houses although the c1ub's sponsor, Dr. Harold E. Conrad, and Mrs. Conrad often entertain the students in their own home. V The membership is built around a nucleus of approximately twenty students who are studying political science and who are vitally interested in it. Officers for the club will not be elected until later in the year. Page Thirty-

I-IGMECCDMING 11 EN Blil- sEU-EN C A three-day HOMECOMING celebration was one of the outstanding events of the semester. Thursday, November 11, a pep assembly, at which the king and queen of HOMECOMING, Stew Milligan and Carolyn Kline, were elected, started off the festivities. Thursday evening a rally was held around a roaring bonfire. Friday night the blue and white football team defeated the favored Kansas State Wildcats, and Saturday the Nxoug KING Coronation Ball brought to a close this annual celebration. jimmy Bradfield and his orchestra furnished the music for the dance which was held in the Held house. Traveling restrictions made it impossible for many out-of-town alumni to attend HOMECOM- ING but the football game and the Coronation Ball had record attendance.
