l.R.C.

The International Relations Club worked successfully in 1960-1961 , as

it concentrated its efforts on Africa, the Dark Continent coming to light.

The I.R.C. began in September with an over-all presentation of Africa,

concentrating on the Congo. Succeeding meetings explored Nigeria and its

fight for independence, Algeria and her position as a French possession,

and the nationalism prevalent on the continent.

To conclude the year's business, Africa was summed up as she stood in

April, 1961, with the spotlight on previously discussed countries.

The officers: Mary Fiorino, president; Claire Schell, vice president; and

Ruth Patterson, secretary-treasurer, could look back on a year of accom–

plishment under the I.R.C. moderator, Mother McShane.
