Show PHOENIX John Hale President Paul Adams Vice President Gary Olsen Secretary Calvin Heiner Treasurer Ralph Degn Sgt. at Arms John Elzey Advisor Intellectual Phoenix, with an annual grade average of "B" on the four-point system, considers itself the men's club that has succeeded. The perennial feat of topping the male club scholarship list actually does qualify the club to carry the "endless line" of Weber College forward in great leaps. Sensations of the year in the club program were the traditional Snowball dance and the Milkmaid contest, which selected on the basis of sheer pull, the lovliest cow milker of them all. A new activity this year was the Alumni Banquet. "Never were so many great men assembled under one roof," commented a club official. Then there was another event described as the Polygamist Party, where at "many a fair coed was chagrined at the necessity of sharing a Phoenix man with someone else." This club has not only refused to die as did the mythical Phoenix bird from which the club has obtained its name, but has been a hotbed of social and intellectual activity. Heads were: John Hale, president; Gary Olsen, vice president; Clark F. Olsen, secretary; and Dean Penrod, treasurer.
