Show Page 2 VJarm Clothing Heeded For Tiny Head Starters On occasion, pathos creeps into the scene of campus activities, as it did this week in the Signpost office, when the bare fact of a cold winter for some poorly-clad youngsters was explained by Bernard Evrard, chairman of the advisory committee to Operation Head Start. NEED DONATIONS NOW "Unless we can get donations of old winter clothing and boots for these youngsters," Mr. Evrard said, "they will be faced with the problems that cold exposure creates, such as influenza and pneumonia."The youngsters, from four to five years old, come from poverty stricken families in the area. "They have no warm clothing," Ev- : : rard said. "And only scanty SIGNPOST Alumni Banquet Slated Tonight WSC Alumni are- meeting tonight in the U.B. to get reacquaint-ed, see old beaus and laugh over old times, old U.B. Birthdat parties, old Homecomings, old clothing styles and old frat parties. Wonder if their personal recollections will be positive or negative? Probably, memories of Weber Stake Academy, Weber Academy, Weber Normal College, Weber College , or Weber State College will be required. Waldo is making better and better memories for alumni every year as he grows bigger, broader and bolder! 100,000 alumni have attended Weber State since 1889, when her enrollment totatled 98. Dexter Farr is Alumni President, Joseph Florence, First V. P., Le Roy Mecham, Second V.P. and Dean Hurst, Executive Director. Wil-ford Fowers is Banquet Chairman. At 6:30 there will be four class reunions from the years 1944, 1949, 1954, and 1959. Following, at 7:30, the banquet and general reuniting will start. The Alumni plan to have a photo display of old campus activities and scenes, and will elect their new officers and Board ofDirectors. iooiwear. 4 CAMPAIGN STARTS As fate would have it, student-body president Tom Welch was present. "Let's start a clothing campaign," Welch said. As a result, Evrard and Welch worked out the following, under Signpost sponsorship: DONATIONS A box for clothing will be in Room 102, near the door, in the student union building, for donations of old clothing and footwear. Students and faculty members with small children in their families who have outgrown their clothing may donate them today, and each weekday between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. EDITOR'S NOTE: please be charitable. These kids deserve it. If you can't rustle up some old clothes at home, try the neighbors and your relatives. Unless, of course, a shivering four-year old standing in the snow doesn't bother you.

"It was a real field trip," Reverend Al Fischer smiled. "They tore into that old floor like tigers, yanking out every rotten board." GENTILE TOWN First built in 1870, the church was used by laborers working on the Golden Spike monument. Later, the whole town of Corrine became known as "Gentile City", having a nearly-exclusive population on non-Mormons. With the Golden Spike Centennial creeping up, the Weber group pitched in to restore the church as a future museum. Rev. Fischer, newly appointed campus Minister, also is pastor for the First Baptist Community Church of Layton. "The Corrine project," he said, "was one of our constructive activities. The students removed not only rotted floorboards for the prospective museum, but also dried-out shingles from the roof. The church, when restored, will also be used for religious retreat." Another activity coming up on Nov. 2 will be a trip to Antelope Island, according to Rev. Fischer. The fellowship meets each Tuesday at noon for a "coffee hour" in room 106 of the union building. They also plan to meet in mid-November at Corrine for more work on the old landmark. "You should have seen the dust and soot on those student's faces," Rev. Fischer said, "but what a sense of accomplishment we had." The Campus Christian Fellowship is non-denominational, Rev. Fischer said. SERVED 15 YEARS The new Campus Minister is a graduate of North Dakota Liberal ArtsCollege and attended graduate school in California, majoring in theology. . His 15 years service in the ministry also include work with the Davis County Mental Health Clinic. "I am usually in the union building during early afternoons," Rev. Fischer said, "to render assistance or answer questions for students." Scholars Will Aleef tAonday What does your grade point average "point out?" If you are a W.S.C. student with a cumulative Grade point average of 3.5 or better during 120 hours of college credit, you are eligible to join the Scholastic Society. This organization was started three years ago under the direction of Weber State President William P. Miller. The purpose of the society is to furnish students who have attained superior scholastic status with the opportunity to meet together regularly. Another goal is to benefit from a scholastic association and maintain scholarly objectives of a college institution. To further scholastic achievement, the society sponsors "Scholar of the Month" articles in-the Signpost, and the Scholarly Paper Contest every spring.
