Mary Lou Vincent and Charlotte Hewitson, respectively, are the presidents.

The members of Der Deutsche Verein are lucky, because they learn from Mrs. Korsch about a German life which is totally charm- ing. At private meetings they sing ‘‘Muss’ I’ Denn”’ lustily, sip coffee sweetened by whipped cream, and eat spicy little cookies covered with powdered sugar. They meet formally for lectures, which president Ellen Greeley plans, and this year they pre- sented to the college Dr. Fritz Karsen of Bryn Mawr, who spoke on ‘Progressive Education in Germany.” The program of the Science Club, headed by Eleanor Haggett, included many inter- esting closed meetings, at one of which high speed movies were shown. Miss McBride, Dean of Radcliffe, spoke on “Brain Lesions” at a meeting open to the college. Jane Adams and the Vocational Com- mittee presented to us at interesting con- ferences speakers from various fields of work. These lectures aided us considerably by showing just what opportunities for jobs lie ahead of us after graduation. Scientifically Speaking { Page 17 }

It is the You that starts out for the lbe and finds itself on the tennis courts, that manages to keep a happy spring in its step even on the grayest of Monday mornings. It 1s the exuberant You which often feels it just can’t sit still a moment longer.
