They hold meetings every two weeks on Thursday evenings and have had many rousing good times during the year. All members have earned certificates for typing and shorthand efficiency and the following have had additional honors: Mary Wallace -, ---Order ot Gregg Artistic Shorthand l Donna Walter --- ---Order of Gregg Artistic Typists Evelyn Liebsch - -----------------.----- ------- -Complete Theory Shorthand Drill Phyllis Dick was the very efticient president of the Greggenites. Irene Conklin held the posi- tion of vice-president, and Donna Walter was secretary-treasurer. The colors selected by the Club are black and red. Red snapdraqons were voted to be their flower. Their unusual motto is, Eight and nine--V-type and dine. Page Twenty-one
