NEW LAW SCHOOL CLUB ORGANIZED

A new club to be known as the Chancery Club with Floyd Anderson 3L as president has been organized by members of the Law School. The purpose of the Club is "to promote social contact and professional association among members of the Harvard Law School, and to afford opportunity for their meeting and dining together."

Along with the Lincoln's Inn, the only other Law School club with a similar purpose, the new Chancery Club will take part in fulfilling a need long felt in the Law School.

It has been felt that heretofore the Law School has been too much cut off from the College. Men coming to the School from other colleges have few or no associations in Cambridge and without some place at which they can meet socially, their associations with other men in their department are necessarily made more slowly. Up to the present time this function has been performed by the Lincoln's Inn Club, and now with the organization of the Chancery Club even greater opportunities for social intercourse will be possible.

In doing this the Chancery Club has the support of President Lowell and the Law School faculty. President Lowell has always expressed himself in favor of getting the students of the University together, and Professor A. W. Scott said at a dinner of the club recently, that while he was not in favor of doing away with classroom work, he felt that it should be supplemented by such discussion as the Chancery Club offers.

The club has, up to the present, been running very successfully for about three weeks, and a constitution has been drawn up which will be submitted for vote immediately after the luncheon today. The Board of Governors of the club consists of seven members; the President, Floyd Anderson 3L.; the Secretary-Treasurer, C. C. Williams, and five other men, one from the third year class and two from each of the other two classes in the Law School. The club has at present a membership of about 35 men, including members of all three classes.

The club holds its luncheons in Room B of the Union, all the members of the Chancery also being members of that institution. In addition to the luncheon tables there are easy-chairs, magazines and newspapers for the benefit of those who wish to use them.
