H(TIPE:Zys a3tetott COEDS PUT ON EASTER BONNETS Hazleton IRC To Send Delegates Plans are being made by the Inter national Relations Club to send del egates to the initial meeting of the Pennsylvania Chapter of Internation al Relations Club Conference at Wilkes College on April 22, 23 and 24. How many representatives or who they will be has not been decided yet as Dr. Hazel Ramsay, adviser of the Center IRC, has not received infor mation as to how many representa tives the Center will be able to send. Dr. Ramsay is certain, however, that at least three or possibly five will at tend the sessions. This forthcoming conference will climax six months of planning.

This was to provide a means of distributing the work and facilitating the functioning of the machinery of the organization.
