Addresses were given in the native tongue of the five permanent member nations: USSR, U. S., United Kingdom, France, and China, with impressive translations into English. The initial address was given by Mr. Taylor , and the session was closed whereupon all the blocs retired into fiery (to say the least) caucus meetings. Most of the time was spent in committee meetings, where resolutions were hashed over and prepared for General Assembly. Liberia had a representative on each of the five committees, which are: Political and Security; Economics and Finance; Social, Cultural and Humanitarian; Trusteeship; and Ad Hoc Political; plus one roving member, Jan Pederson who was delegation chairman. By the time Friday rolled around, things were getting tense as every delegation realized the magnitude of things to be done, and the comparatively limited time at hand. Committee meetings ran more smoothly, and debate was at a minimum as each block attempted to get their pet resolutions passed for consideration in General Assembly. Saturday, General Assembly was long and not always interesting, but, as was true in the committee meetings, when time started running low everyone tried to rush things. A dramatic walk-owas staged by Egypt when a resolution which they staunchly opposed was passed. The delegation, carrying its colors before them paraded down the center isle and out of the assembly hall. This experience was valuable, and continues to be of great value for each member of our delegation. It afforded an opportunity to see, in modification, the workings of this great international clearing house. It is difficult to realize the job of the United Nations, and the importance of international relations. However, each one of the delegates come away with a greater understandenthusiasm ing, with for next year, and many, many ut re-new- ed thanks to Westminster for making this great educational experience possible. Bal-lenge- n, WHINGS Wind Up Season With Interesting Program As a climax to their activities of the past year at the State Hospital at Provo, WHING, the Westminster group, in cooperation with the Utah Association for Mental Health, and the New Horizons Club, sponsored a special program May 15 in Uie College, gymnasium in which some 50 patients from the hospital participated. The New Horizons Club is an organization for former mental patients. The evening program, which was limited to students, faculty and invited guests, included a Hi-Neigh- . floor show and square dancing in which both students and patients took part. Mrs. Garrison conducted the square dancing.

She went to to care for her pride and joy school at Fort Collins A and M a black cocker called Cindy. in Colorado. After attending Fort Collins, she studied voice in Chicago before embarking for Europe. She spent a year touring the continent, but spent a great deal of her time in Italy. Mrs. Engle came to Westminster College in 1925 as a full time voice teacher. She was the only voice teacher, therefore, she did all the work of that department. After she married Frederick Engle she continued working until the birth of their daughter Judy. After Judy was born, Mrs. Engle continued working, but It was at this only part-timperiod that Mrs. Simpson came. In 1955, Mrs. Engle started working in the library. She now assists Miss Baughman in caring for and distributing the books. Mrs. Engle enjoys books and working with people. She proudly admits that one of her favorite hobbies is cooking and that she enjoys making new dishes. Frederick Engle, before retirement, was the chief chemist at the American Smelting and Refining here in Salt Lake. Mrs. Engle is always eager to attend concerts and plays; e. Don Fellows New Sirs.
