the Gym. The committee worked hard for days beforehand pre-
paring a snowstorm for the occasion. Countless bits of cotton strung
on yards of thread and suspended from the ceiling produced an effect

merit.

Now about college events. The first general social event was the
A l l Around Club reception and dance to the Tufts freshmen. Then
came the baby party with some exceptional freshman babies in the
care of some equally exceptional sophomore nurses. Next was the
Doe dance where some of the Jackson ladies turned into gallant
youths and escorted the remaining Jacksonites to the scene of festivi-
ties.

The Christian Guild has grown rapidly and is conducting very
successful bible study, mission study and social service meetings
under the lead of various members.

The athletic association has undergone a complete reorganization.
The constitution after many weeks of work has been completely re-
written and after adoption by the association was approved and com-
mended by the executive board of the college. Earlier in the year, the
tennis championship, held last year by Leslie Hooper, who did not
enter the tournament this fall, was won by Eleanor Bisbee, '15, and
now we are looking forward to the interclass basket ball series as
the next chief event after the freshman-sophomore flag hunt, Janu-
ary 6 and 7.
