STUDENT FEDERATION MEETS AT STATE COLLEGE (Continued from page one) but was also most instructive to the students present. The theme of his address was how to organize a body and, after it is organiy.ed, how to draw out the most beneficial activity. After (his inspiring talk the meeting adjourned for a short recess and the discussion of the meeting was resumed a little later in the Y. M. C. A. building. At this time the delegates were addressed by Deau Cloyd (if State College, who traced his connection w i t li Student (Jovernment woi'k and drew con elusions thej-efrojn. Then, after wards, a very interesting open forum Avas led by President Long. During this time student problems found in the colleges represented were brought up and discussed, and suggestions were offered for their solution At five o’clock the meeting was adjourned by President Paul the presiding officer. The delegates met again for supper at six o’clock at the Peacock Alley Tea Room. This was one of the most memorable hours of the day for the supper was really the social event of the occasion. A delicious two course supper was served con sisting of a salad course and an ice course. This was planned for the delegates by their said host ajid hostess, State and Meredith. The delegates went from there to Pullen Hall on the State Campus where they were ad dressed by President Joe Long who in his speech summarized the work of the Federation and gave the inspiring challenge for even greater things to be ac complished in tlie future. Then Mr. Long introduced President Ed. Murrow who is head of the National Federation with offices in New York City. President Murrow is a graduate of the University of Washington and is now giving his entire time to Student Government work. He has spent the last four months traveling in Europe and study ing the Student Government conditions there. He is extreme ly interested in student prob lems and is ably equipped for his position. In his speech he compared student conditions in Europe with those in America. Needless to say this address proved most interesting and profitable to all present. Then the members were urged to attend the National Student Government Federation meet ing, which is to be held in Atlanta from December 28 to Januai'y 2. At this meeting Georgia Tech will be host and representatives will be present from all the leading colleges and universities in the United States.
