Fontanella, the club's mod- erator, announced. Cancer, its growth, development and cures, was the subject of a lec- ture delivered to the Mendel Club, March 1, by Nicholas De Francis and Thomas Draper. Mr. Metz, a graduate student in the university, continued the club's series of lec- tures March 15 by speaking on the effects of barometric pressure on body tissues. The Mendel Club has about fifty members who pay about four dol- lars a year dues to cover the cost of the club's various expenses. At some future date films will be rented for the interest and enjoyment of the members. The dues will also help in covering the cost of the paper which the club plans to start. Originally the club was to have been for pre-med students exclu- sively, but a charter for such an or- ganization was refused by the col- lege authorities. A compromise was reached by the foundation of a biology club which has met with the immediate approval of both pre- med and biology students. Mr. Fon- tanella said that the club's activities have been arranged to benefit both groups of students, with trips to hospitals, zoos, and guest speakers forming a large part of the schedule. The members of the club's pro- visional executive staff are: John Dooling, President; John Connolly, Vice President; Frank Coughlin, CHESTERFIELD IS Corresponding Secretary; Vincent Novella, Secretary Treasurer; Jo- seph McGinn, Chairman of Commit- MY IDEA OF A REALLY tee on Arrangements; Bolzan, '50, Editor of Club paper.
