Play Day, the Wilson Car- nival, and the Lindblom Water Carnival.

r mi « ft As the co-ordinating body for all Wilson organizations, the Club Board, sponsored by Miss Claire O ' Reilly, is comprised of one dele- gate from each club, usually a club officer. The Club Board is able to regulate the activities of the clubs as it has the final deci- sion in issuing charters to clubs. The Board also has charge of the club bulletin board. The tremendous success of Wil- son ' s 1941 Spring Carnival, held on the night of March 21 was due, in no small part, to the splendid work of the Club Board, who spon- sored the affair with the coopera- tion of other organizations. For the evening the college took on all the excitement and festivity of a real carnival. For the spring semester of 1941, the officers of the Club Board were Harold Furda, chairman; Bob Lyden, assistant chairman; Muriel Springer, secretary-treasurer; and Edward Kwasnieski, publicity chairman. Delegates to the Stu- dent Senate included Sara Aron- berg, Harold Furda, and George Wassack. (?af2fie a GluU Wilson ' s A Cappella Choir was organized by Esther Goetz Gilli- land, the present sponsor, at the same time that Wilson College opened its doors in 1934. The choir renders musical selections for all school programs and assemblies, giving special performances for Christmas and an annual spring festival. The music festival. May Melo- dies o J 94 1, was presented on the night of May 16, featuring a pro- gram of American music.

Gae44A VcUUcuntl Say it in French, and keep it an all-French atmosphere. That is the general idea of the meetings of Lts Coewi VaiJIants, sponsored by Mile. Jennie Shipman and Mile. Dorothy Roberts. Here it is that members put away their English and gather to chat informally with one another in French. To top it off, charming French teas and dejeuners lure the French students to enjoyable afternoons at Wilson. One of the interesting achievements of Les Coeur Vail- lants has been its semesterly pub- lication of Le Tri-College magazine in conjunction with the other two city junior colleges. French enthusiasts are led by their president, Anne Condon; vice-president, Edward McMullen; secretary, Helen Johns; treasurer, Philip Cotsones; and program chairman, Lyda Wexler. The French cabinet for last semester included president, Sara Aron- berg; vice-president, Hans Nord; secretary, Mary Kamberos; and treasurer, Anne Condon.

The Criminal Court was the ex- citing scene of the first of the many off-campus tours sponsored by Wilson ' s Commerce Club this year. Under the guidance of Mr. George Comery, sponsor, and the able leadership of Elliott Gordon, president, the club was able to make numerous trips covering our metropolitan campus — the city of Chicago. Ably assisted by Barbara Han- ley as vice-president, the president was able to further the aims of the organization — to provide various opportunities for the students to discuss and to be enlightened about the problems and practices of business in the business world at present. Grace Goodman, acting as sec- retary, kept the minutes of the meetings of the Commerce Club. Ken Knudsen, Larry Doyle, and Sam Mesirow comprised the com- mittee which planned the tours and meetings. The organization has hailed 1941 as a banner year for themselves because, they assert, all their aims have been fulfilled.
