Activities at which they served included theatrical productions and athletic events, besides a wide variety of social festivities. This year they joined the basketball team for the Southern Utah tour. Whip members are selected afrer a thorough screening during spring quarter rushing. Taffy-pulls and pizza-bakes developed new friendships and at the same time served as a basis for judgement of willingness to cooperate. "I'm confident Whip will continue to be a necessary part of the Weber foundation," said Karen White, president. "Many changes will have to be made, but there will always be a need for friendly service." Karen White President Jacqueline Boyce Vice President Karen Morf Treasurer Mrs. Marva Gregory Advisor HOME ECONOMICS Improving homemaking trends and acquainting future homemakers with modern conveniences and methods is the two-fold purpose of the Home Economics Club. Science has achieved tremendous heights in not only electronic appliances but also in simple labor-saving devices. These girls recognize the value of perpetuating a spirit for home improvement. And since the home is so basic to mankind, they share a responsibility requiring a desire to make the home welcome to both family and guest. Early in the fall a recipe-exchange party produced new friendships and enhanced further activities such as the gift-wrapping demonstration at Christmas. State-wide conventions in the spring and fall introduced a deeper knowledge of the components of good homemaking. Left to right: Rowene Armstrong, Noreen Olpin, Melba J.
