Second Row-Helen Strey, Marjorie Justus, Susan Greenfield, Jean Kutz, Aurelia Meuleners, Carol Askov. Back Row-Eileen Farnick, Donna Farnick, Carmen Dalheimer, Ramona Arquette, Beverly Jorgenson, Jean Yaeger. A challenge for success in organizing a Home Economics Club was attempted by a group of ambitious junior high girls. The foundation of the club was based upon the careful guidance of our advisor, Miss Haffemeister, 6 The first step toward the establishment of the club was careful consideration o-f the qua'i- fications, duties. and rules of the members, A definite agreement of plans was made before they were inducted upon the club. The main qualification that was requested of all joining members was to try their utmost in co-operating and to assist in all responsibilities of the club. The meetings of the club take place rcgulitrly on every Friday during the activity period in the Home lfconomics Department, The first meeting was held on Friday, December 5. The girls responded exceedingly we'l. An election of officers was held, presenting to the club the following: President, Beverly Jorgen- seng Treasurer, Ramona Arquetteg Secretary, Donna Farnick, A complete procedure of the club's activities was explained to those attending. The financial situation of the club was solved by having the members pay dues of twenty- five cents a month and by selling refreshments at basketball games. The money was used to pur- chase articles for making projects. The paying of dues has been abolished now that the club has a clear financial standing with a distinguished eleven cents in its treasury.
