To the Editors :
PreregistrationI What is it? I have been told that it is an oppor
tunity for one to register early for his next semesters classes. However,
when you get right down to it, you are only signii^g up to register again
when you should be in class. j
Hfere is Sally Senior signing up for 15 hours. When she returns>
if she is lucky, there will only be one class for her to take. So what
does she do. Well, there is still an opening in ^rt 12, P.E. 12, and
Chemistry 51. Of course, she can't use any of thpse but who cares?
After all, she can come back next year and try again.
It seems to me that preregistration should be done by class, not
by the last name. The seniors should register first and then work down
to the freshman. After all, the seniors have bee?i here four years and
they now want to go to work and settle down.
Why do we have to finish registration during finals? VJhy not a day
break to finish registering or studying for finals? > r .j,. .
Well, so long and better luck in the future!! . ri

Dear Editors: • > . .
A German Club appeared on Elon's Campus this , fall, and from a],l ^
reports it seems to be doing very welll It seems at first to strike the '
observer not as a Glub but as a group of people getting togjether to have
fun. ■
The most unique thing about^the Club is the fact that it collects
no dues and has rio offical officers. It has only a program committee
whichf.plans the entertainment for its meetings and i^ak^s,icare of the
Club's business. The Club feels that by using thi? form of organization
it avoids all the long business meetings that afflict most of the other
clubs on campus aind still enjoy most of the actiy;fties which are connect
ed with belonging to a club. ^ .
The getitogethers of the Club thus far this school year have con-
siste3; .of everything from color slides of Germany shown by Mrsi
Bridgewater to the singing of old favorite carols such,as,Silent■Night
and Oh Christmas Tree at Christmas time. It has discvissed the problem
affordp(^ the Free World by Berlin and had an interesting program pre
sented, on the night life of the divided city.
. The Club's goal is to leave no stone unturned in discovering what
Europe in general and Germany in particular is really like.
The future meetings reflect their striving toward this goal. They ■
plan to have some films of Germany sent from the German Consulate in
Atlanta for the next meeting. The following meeting will feature such
things as polka parties and German folk song fests.
At this time the Club would like to express its gratitude for all
the work and help given by Mrs. Brigewater, our advisor. We wish to
extend a big "Thanks" to her. - " ^ ;
Our next meeting will be in A-200 at seven ofclock Friday evening, -
March 19. Everyone ihterestela is 'invited. Go to the next meeting.
You'll enjoy it.
