Three A Clubs To Hold Joint Meet Tonight The proposed merger of three Ag campus clubs which was dis cussscd before vacation will be come a reality tonight when members of Varsity Dairy, Poul try and Block and Bridle clubs will hold their first joint meet ing. Dr. C. B. Sehultz, director of the museum, will give the feature adrress before the assembled groups in room 301, Dairy In dustry. The meeting will begin at 7:30, according to Glenn Clay baugh, president of Varsity Dairy. Ag Students Welcome All Ag sudents are welcome to attend the program, which will be supplemented by films taken of museum work last summer. After the talk, the various clubs will hold individual business meetings, Claybaugh said. Under the provisions of the merger, which has been agreed to by representatives of the three Hubs, no man mav be a mem ber of more than one of the three organizations. Joint meetings will be held once a month on the second Thursday and will be followed by separate business meetings. This will enable the clubs to preserve their own iden tity, and, at the same time, spon sor more informative discussions of agricultural problems. Setup Centralizes Clubs "By our new setup, we hope to make Ag college clubs more centralized and remove some of the activity which crowds the evening available for club work," remarked Claybaugh." "Limiting allegiance to one of the three clubs will also allow members to be more active in their chosen organization."
