The Slavic Society seeks to interest not only girls of Slavic origin but also Wellesleyites from every cultural background in the life of the eastern European countries. At one meeting this year, Mr. Barnett, whose concerts are always a Wellesley event, performed an all-Chopin program commemorating the hun- dredth anniversary of the composer ' s death. A former Czechoslovakian minister of education spoke at another meeting, and in the spring a Russian Easter celebration featured Cheteleff and his Russian choir. The Society was also instru- mental in securing several first-rate Russian films for all-college entertainment during the year.

In programs this year club members heard not only Harvard and Wellesley professors, but also fellow students who spoke on such esoteric subjects as non-Euclidean geom- etry. Other meetings were designed to give girls an idea of the professional possibilities of mathe- matics, so that the bread lines of the future will not include Wellesley math majors. For recre- ation Math Clubbers were seen working on math- ematical puzzles and playing with moeJjius strips, a highly advanced form of paper dolls. Page nineteen k
