Annex Volunteers Work in Boston Settlement House

Fifty-three Radcliffe students are already on the job in settlement houses, throughout Cambridge and greater Boston, Betty K. Heaton '51, Annex Community Service Committee chairman, announced last night. Forty more girls are being interviewed today and tomorrow for volunteer positions.

Cambridge's now Community Center, which will be completed in two weeks time, will provide adequate opportunities for the volunteers nearer the college. At present a large percentage of the girls are working at the Margaret Fuller House, a Boston settlement house.

Cliffe student volunteers are devoting from one to four hours a week on their particular join.

Many Activities

Cooking, painting, knitting, and sports classes for all ages also call for leaders. One Radcliffe girl is directing a choral group of singers from the staff of Massachusetts General Hospital. Miss Heaton terms settlement house work as a "tremendous opportunity for Social Relations majors, or anyone else interested in people."

Radcliffe's employment bureau keeps a check on all activities performed by Annex students in this branch of work. In applying for summer jobs or work after graduation, students find recommendations referring to their settlement house experience "very useful," Miss Heaton claimed.
