The hunt will be^in arter the party reaches the Ridge in order to insure a full repre¬ sentation when classes are renewed on the next day.
In addition there will be a cross country trek and skiing contests with tickets to the St. Bonaventure and Fredonia games as prires. Tobog¬ ganing and skating facilities are also available, h the ice is thick enough, a hockey game may be arranged be¬ tween the Seniors and the Juniors.
.Mr. Tuttle expressed unqualified optimism about the affair and srated

The Strohaver ScierKe Club held a business meeting on Wednesday evening, January 22. In the absence of President W'atkins, Mr. William Wahl presided at the meeting. It was announced that the science club activi¬ ties for 1936 have been planned. Ao.'ording to this program, there v^-ill be no more regular business meetings in the coming semester, but instead, all attention will be devoted to trips to various industrial centers.
It is e.xpected  that the club vvill
make three more trips before the close
of the school year.    .Moreover, since
the dinner vvhich the club held on
January  11  at  Lorenzo's restaurant
met with the unanimous approval of
the members, the executive committee
has decided to hold two more of these
dinners.   The first vvill take place on
Saturday evening, March  14.    Mr.
Fdward   Stack   has   been   appointed
chairman of this dinner, vvhich will
be very much the same as the last one.
llien, on May 2, the Strohaverians
vvill hold their first annual banquet,
under the chairmanship of Michael
I DuBenitz.
