The total breaks down into slightly more than S2 per student. The newly organized committee pertaining to concerts and lectures under the chairmanship of Bootsie Porter proved to be very successful. Being the largest of the committees with over twenty-five members the group was able to sponsor four excellent evenings of entertainment. The season began with the appearance of Meredith Willson and his wife, Rini, on October 25. They presented a night of wit and music in which Mr. Willson UNION COMMITTEES play un imporlum' role in lhe success of all Union rzclziuzliex. reminisced about his boyhood in Iowa and then was joined by his wife in presenting a sketch of the Music Manf' The Roger Wagner Chorale pro- vided a delightful program of music on Ianuary 9. The group consisting of twenty-four voices and an accompanying chamber orchestra had just com- pleted a tour of Latin American countries and were conducting their fifth tour of the United States and Canada. The third guest in the series was Will Rogers, Ir. who lectured about his famous father in a program called As Will Rogers Saw It. Re- ceptions were held in the Union lounge after each of the three programs to honor the well-known guests. The last performance, which was sponsored by the Union Board in conjunction with the Stu- dent Senate, was the Cell Block Seven and their dixieland jazz music at the Cardinal Capers. Other highlights of the year were the ping pong, bridge, and shuflleboard tournaments in which the students competed for prizes, the displays of award- winning paintings in the lounge, and the sledding party held during one of the large snows of the season. The Committee in charge of the news brings the latest events happening throughout the country to the attention of students as they broadcast at intervals during the day. An experiment was also made in setting up a radio service for the college. LEADERSHIP . .

It is responsible to the college administration for its actions. The Union Board has been named for a College Union rather than a Student Union because it is for the use of faculty and administration as well as students. The Union Board is closely united with the Student Senate through several connections: The Union Board President is a voting member of the Senate, and the Student Body President is a mem- ber of the Union Board, the president of the Board must report the activities to the Student Senate, the appointment of the Board members must be approved by a two-thirds vote of the Senate. The William Iewell College Union was opened in the fall of 1957 to provide a community center for the entire college family. It further strives to unify all segments of college life. The College Union Board is the student-faculty board which is responsible for the all-campus activi- ties program. The members include the Union Director, seven student directors, and two faculty members. The students on the board are upper- classmen who have exhibited service to the campus 28 . . LEADERSHIP life and have established themselves as leaders. The president and secretary of the board are elected from the student members. The students on the board are known as Student Directors and each one is responsible for a particu- lar area. The areas are further divided and are supervised by Committee Chairmen. The Publicity Committee, the Personnel Director, and the Busi- ness Manager are directly responsible to the secretary of the Union Board. The Recreation area is subdivided into the committees of Ping Pong, Bridge, Tours, Shuflieboard, Crafts and Hobbies, and the Game-of-the-Week. Another specific area concerns parties and receptions. The committees include Homecoming, Achievement Day, Tree Trimming, Christmas Party, Winterfest, Spring Festival, After-Game-Parties, and After-Movie Parties. The Communication Director guides the leaders of Special Demonstrations, Campus Talent, News Service, Forums, Faculty Teas, and the Mar- ried Students Program. The last division is that of Special Programs and includes Movies, Art Shows, Special Arts, Special Music Programming, and the very important Concert-Lecture Series. The chair- men of these committees constitute a group known as the College Union Council. f . 7. X f n , I , ..,,, Q ,fi I 7.
