Alliance Angles
Is our student body actively and
conscientiously concerned — with
events happening outside of the
campus world? Now that “UVAP
time” is approaching, the Alliance
hopes the«student answers this
question affirmatively. _ Because
there are alive organizations on
campus under the Alliance and the
League, we are anxious to see you
take a positive interest in them.
By. doing so, you are assured an
active part in the college commun-
ity, as well as becoming informed
on world problems.
On Wednesday evening, Oct,’ 22,
the Alliance will present to the
college, the various groups on
campus under its scope. Upper-
classmen and Freshmen are urged
to sign up on Thursday, Oct. 23
with one or more of these organi-
zations. The Alliance under the
United Volunteer Activities Pro-
gram needs your support, whether
you become a member of the Inter-
national Relations Club, Debate
Club, Student Federalists, or’ In-
dustrial Group. Pamphlets will be
posted on the bulletin boards be-
fore Oct. 28, explaining the:various
organizations and their functions.
Look these over, and then decide
how you can effectively demolish
a pseudo-ivory tower!
