CGA How does she do it? This was a familiar question whenever mention was made of Bunt, this year’s president of CGA. She managed to carry the problems of the Whea- ton world without even hinting at their weight, and all of the time looked for other worlds to help conquer. Perhaps years from now Bunt herself will look back and wonder how she did it too. To help her she had vice- president Mrs. Webster, treasurer Georgia Heigelmann, and secretary Jean Scattergood, who all did their part in the smooth-running of College Government. Among the issues taken up in CGA this year was the possibility of having a complete honor system during exams. Another plan which was actually put into effect this year and which proved very successful was that of having an emergency CGA fund from which students could borrow when necessary. in Scattergood, Georgia Heigelmann, Elizabeth Whitman, Josephine Webster Patricia Murray, Tacte Heath, Mary Speidel YWCA Few people realize how much a part of campus life and community affairs CA is. Working in co-ordination with the Interna- tional YWCA it sponsors a great variety of activities. The reception of freshmen in the fall, the unforgettable Freshman Picnics, the Candlelight Service, and the Acquaintance Dance with MIT are among the social re- sponsibilities of the association. The Lost and Found and the Secondhand Store are both run under the leadership of CA’s cabinet mem- bers. They also arrange Lenten services, speakers, and discussion groups throughout the year. In Norton CA works with the schools through the Play Club, School Pro- jects and Girl Scout committees. With Pokey as president this year, Jane Allington as vice- president, Pat Murray as treasurer, and Tacie as secretary, we have heard more about CA, and felt more a part of it than ever.

To keep us busy after classes and studies are done, and to relieve the strain of the scholar’s life there are numer- ous departmental clubs, three publications, choir and discussion groups. To keep us on the straight and narrow governmentally, religiously, dramatically and athleti- cally there are student-run associations. The combined forces of these extracurricular activities are what makes the L’ in Wheaton Life a capital. CLUBS and ORGANIZATIONS

DA DA, headed this year by Betty Ball and assisted by Barty Kent, Joanie Hecker and Jean Haller, started off the year with a melo- drama combining faculty and student talent. Mr. Boas ‘‘called the kettle black’’ and played villain to Georgia's heroine. Directed by Miss Conger, the proceeds went to the J. Edgar Park Scholarship Fund. Rossiter, Banov and Colvin of the Freshman ECA class had their one-act plays performed in March, while, as — a contrast, the Spring play was Dr. Faustus. Technical heads on these productions were: Pearce, lighting; Stu, scenery; Barlow, pub- licity; Krueger, make-up; Shumaker, cos- Back. Barbara Kent, Jean Haller tumes; and Ahlers, stage manager. The scene Front: Joan Hecker, Elizabeth Ball shop was kept busy and the scenery crew had to segregate themselves when they came back from Mrs. Mach’s onion sandwich patties. Charlotte Carpenter, Kay Garrigues, Patty Mann, Peg Pierson RRA Kay, Patty, Peg and Charlotte have plenty to discuss concerning AA in those short after- lunch meetings. First of all, there’s Outing Club with its hay- and sleigh-rides. The inter- dorm bowling matches and ping-pong tourna- ments come under AA, too, besides Tritons and Dance Group, and the new Country Dance group, all of which gave performances this year. Hostess Nancy Mead provided the oranges that the hockey and basketball en- thusiasts have enjoyed, and welcomed the visiting teams to Wheaton. We played in the All-college hockey games, and defeated the All-Boston team, and played exhibition bas- ketball at Wellesley. And of course, AA pro- vides the heads of sports, and sports meetings.
