No Admission Belles-Lettres The Belles-Lettres Society, un like most clubs at the Hazleton Campus, does not readily reveal its many functions in its title. “Belles,” the Latin term for beautiful, combined with “Let tres,” simply implies that the members are concerned with beautiful letters. What do these so-called beautiful letters entail? As all Belles Lettre enthusiasts know, this society is the Campus’ answer to anyone eager to ex press his capabilities in the cul tural fields. Art exhibits, such as the one sponsored during the fall term by the Hazleton Art League, reading festivals, held on both college and highschool levels, and an annual trip to New York to view a Broadway Play are a few of the highlights of the Belles- Lettres year. Of course, Belles-Lettres mem bers do not receive all these ben efits without putting forth effort. They are expected to support the organization through committee participation and all-round club interest. Naturally, they are al ways willing and eager to accept new members who will help to broaden the club horizons.
