Show "Roll your own" BERTHA ECCLES HALL All colleges have girls' proms, but few have ones as fine as Weber's Bertha Eccles Hall at Twenty-sixth Street and Jefferson Avenue. The hall was built by the Eccles family during a period when elegance was the style, and the building lives up to every requirement of elegance. The imposing structure of red natural stone towers three stories and is crowned at the top by two towers or cupolas. Through the front door one enters a small entry hall and then steps immediately into a large, comfortable parlor. To the left of the parlor is the great dining room, and toward the back of the house are the stair, the sun porch, and the kitchen. Upstairs the hall is lined generously with doors from which issue the voices of the occupants. Girls from all over the state who have come to Weber College are living here under the supervision and care of our beloved Gertie and Mrs. Gregory. Bertha Eccles Hall is worthy of Weber's tradition. "Come out wherever you are." Who do they think they're kidding? "What, no mix-master? "Look! He's going to kiss her." |
