HE University of Nebraska Men's Glee Club was founded as a student organization for the purpose of fostering a better appreciation of music by members of the University. The present organization dates back five years, at which time the present constitution was adopted. Membership in the club is determined by competition held at the beginning of the school year. The director of the club serves as judge of the tryouts. The club maintains a membership of about forty, from which group the varsity quartet is selected.

     The club sang this year at convocation and at numerous other University functions. Members of the club have taken an active part in the University musical productions. The annual spring tour taken during the spring vacation, took the club to nine towns in Northeast Nebraska. Several weekend trips were also made.

     The repertoire of the club includes only selections of the highest type. Future plans of the club are to uphold this standard, and to further perfect the organization to the level of the best college clubs in the country.

HE lonique Society first made its appearance in the Engineering College in September, 1923. It is an organization of architectural engineers organized for a two-fold purpose: first, to stimulate interest in architecture among the students of architecture; and secondly, to aid in building up this department of the Engineering College.

     At the outset the way was rather rough for the society, due to lack of students in the department and lack of interest in the society of the students registered in architectural engineering, hence development was slow. However, this year has proven to be more fruitful. The meetings have been conscientiously attended, a greater interest has been shown, and two informal social gatherings have taken place. At these gatherings the Ioniques were addressed by prominent Lincoln architects, members of the American Institute of Architects, whose talks were very instructive.

      The society also received recognition from the Nebraska chapter of the American Institute of Architects in the way of a letter agreeing to arrange a series of lectures and to aid the society in any way they are able. The quest for recognition is perhaps the most important step taken during the past year by the society, as it must be recognized before it can expect to accomplish its aims.

      Hence, in view of the fact that the society is steadily growing, it may be said, with truth. that the year has been a successful one for the Ionique Society and that greater success may be expected in the future.
