Although the College is still far behind Ivy League schools like Princeton and Yale in "selling" itself to high school men, Nelson that the Key has made no progress.

Some of the Society's most important work falls under the second category outlined by Nelson--co-ordination of College active. This year efforts in this field range from showing football movies to sponsoring a Brown Dance which packed the Kirkland House Junior Common Room and overflowed the Dining Hall.

Crew Accounts

One of the Society's first accomplishments-- a ship-to-shore broadcast of the Eastern Sprints regatta in 1948--has now been extended to all crew races. The equipment, however, is somewhat modernized: while four years the Society made the broadcast a walkie-talkie set-up, this Spring Nelson says that the Wireless Club plans to loan its equipment.

In May, the Key will stage third annual All-College Weekend, an effort to unite all four College classes an an immense extravaganza. The first dance, attended by 800 couples, had Charlie Spivak and "Orchids in Moonlight." Last year, there was Elliot Lawrence "April in Paris." The theme for the '52 affair has not yet been set.

Just a few months ago, they assumed still another burden--the printing of an activities calendar.

The job handled by the Crimson Key Society is a large one. It has at once attempted to carry the tasks of University host and College coordinator. Much of the job involves thankless, burdensome minutae, performed by the real nerve center of the Crimson Key, the permanent members. If the Key has done its work well, the tribute should devolve upon these men.
