but, except for the first meetings, not more than half a dozen regular mem- bers showed up. This is no doubt due to the severe exclusiveness of all dc- bating activities in T. A. Students who did attend profited much but at Debating Society any rate, the proposed program oi the Program Committee C Deutsch, Hab- er and Steinerb failed to be carried out. The Hebrew Speaking Club has proudly finished its most successful term. Its program consisted of reports 'by members on questions of Jewish interest and on the Jewish news, each followed by question-and-answer H 0 bra zu Spcalfing Club periods. All transactions were carried on in Heb1'ew. Examples of the topics reported on are Jewish philosophy and Yiddish literature. As its fclimaxing achievement the Hebrew Speaking Club issued a mimeographed magazine in Hebrew, Hazik Q The Sparkuj . It contained many articles of interest written by the members themselves. The Science Club, once it had so-lved the problem -of abtaining a steady and competent faculty adviser by securing the services of Mr. Samuel Leibowitz, progressed by leaps and bounds. Following the T. A. trend 'away from dry lectures and discussions and towards student participation, the Science Cluub presented several demfonstrations with appropriate talks, both given by student members. Some of these demonstrations, taking place in the chemistry and physics lalborato-ries of T. A. with additional supplies provided by the Yeshiva College laboratories and by hir. Leibo- witz, were: VVhat is Catalysis? , The Chemistry of Photography, and Q4

Jerry Brickman-Chairman tlwC1I1:ite1n WHAT WE DID LAST TERM This is the story of the extra-curricul1zr activities in T. A. during the past term. The Executive Council, the administrative branch ol' student government, had already been elected when the term began. The Student Council, the legislative branch, was elected by the various classes as soon as possible. Under the chairmanship of G. O. president Joseph Yoshor and under the guidance of Mr. Joseph Liehtenberg, it met regularly. This term, in addition to carrying out its legislative functions, it also supervised other activities through the Executive Council and through its coxnmitees. The Constitutional Conrmittee has finally revised, through legal procedure, and mimeographed the Constitution of the G. O. Through tne Executive Council, the Student Council saw to it that clubs were given every opportu- nity to succeed. In return, however, the Executive Council and the El- chanite' required all activities to maintain satisfactory records of member- ship, attendance Zllld achievements. It is from these records that the Di- rectory of Activities and the information for this article are taken. TheCurrent History Club met in the Library on Sundays. Activities fell into two groups: current topics and a term project. Part of each meet- Current History Club ing was devoted to a free-for-all discussion ot' a topic ot' current interest. The term project consisted of reports by members on various radio commen- tators. Attendance fluctuated about the dozen mark but all members were highly enthusiastic about the club. The Debating Society started with a loud bang and ended with a weak pop. A club of this nature requires a htrge membership if it is to succeed 23

The Dissection of a Frog. As its most ambitious enterprise, the Science Club successfully undertook the preparation of aniline dyes from coal tar. The various steps in the manufacture of them were presented with adequate Science Club explanations to the members. The Science Club of T. A., a member of Science Clubs of America, plans to exhibit the results of its experiments to the student body. The Stamp Club is a newcomer to T. A. Organized by an enterprising lower-termer, George Sales, it received equal consideration from the Execu- tive Council along with the longer-established clubs as soon as the sincer- ity of its efforts was evident. The Stamp Club has not yet been able through experience to realize its potentialities and its limitations. With fuller development, it will provide T. A. students with a trading mart for stamps and with an opportunity to exchange philatclie information and experience amongst themselves. One of the means that the clubs, and all other activities for that matter, have of attracting participants is the Publicity Bureau. This past term, the Bulletin Board, which is under the care of the Publicity Bureau, has exhibited at all times material interesting enough to catch the eyes of the students. The art and literature featured were excellent. As a suggestion to increase its usefulness, the Publicity Bureau could read daily to all offi- cial classes a list of all activities to take place that day and the day follow- ing. Sporadic attemp-ts at this have already been made but the efforts were too unorganized to work. Having at its disposal another bulletin board is the Concert Bureau. As usual the manager has secured tickets to radio broadcasts and has made them available to the students upon payment of a small service fee. Con- tinuing its custom of placing tickets to the disposal of the lYar Effort Com- mittee for distribution to bond buyers, the Concert has also cooperated this term with the Elchanite. Q5
