As Quill and Scroll's thirty members arriv- ed at the home of President Angie Davis for their first meeting, they realized they couldn't tarry long over their appetizing buf- fet supper. There were literary pieces from many students to be read, discussed and criti- cized before they could decide upon the selec- tions that would go into the first of the two editions of the 1959 Homespun. In their twice- monthly meetings the members really came to appreciate the efforts that had gone into the writing of those pieces, it was often very difficult to decide which ones weren't quite good enough to appear in Homespun. The adviser, Mrs. Newman, and the old members decided that this year membership in Quill and Scroll would not be limited to High Life and Whirligig staff members, but that all qualitied students interested in in- creasing their appreciation of good writing were eligible.
