MALTED MILK DO-NUT SHOP Get Your Halloween Party Do-nuts Here 2604 Washington Blvd. The Flower Shop of Elizabeth Huth Telephone 6811 That peppy bunch of girls known throughout the city as the Whip club again prove their untiring loyalty to Weber. For weeks now they have been working with one goal in mind; namely, to accompany the team to their points of conflict. The first way in which they sought to materialize this objective was in peeling tomatoes at the canning factory. This enter-prize, not only imbursed the Whip treasury, but also helped in the national defense program. During the past week, sales of every sort brought to light the originality of the group. The first was a cooked food sale in Penny's department store. The girls proved in this that they could carry their enthusiasm into the kitchen and turn out delicacies that would be a trap for any man-catcher. The Whip Inn in the main hall of the Moench building has seen food aplenty given to the students in exchange for a little help toward "On to Mesa." Each day last week a different sort of sale ensued. One day it would be candy and the next cookies or popcorn balls. Even the job of shining shoes was indulged in. No Weberite had any excuse for sloppy shoes on the Whip girls' shoe shining day. Sales of popcorn balls and candy will prevail at the Whip Inn again this week; and even a rummage sale is being considered. In spite of daily participation in these activities, Whip found time aplenty to give bids to the follow ing girls: Joyce Lutz, Marjorie Farr, Elaine Grow, Janester Mar-tindale, Margie Hoggan, Gayle Neilson, Shirley Harris, and Kath-erine Kenny. These girls will be pledged until they prove themselves worthy of becoming members.Early Breakfast Scene of Initial Affair The goddesses of Diana held their acceptance breakfast Sunday morning at nine o'clock at Dick Gunn's cafe in the red room.
