- Hi Tri Cabinet Spends Week-End at Lake Cottage
Thirteen members of the cabinet of Hi-Tri Girl Reserve organization
of the high school were entertained at a house party over the week-end
at the Clear Lake cottage of Jeanette Winders. The girls took possession
on Friday evening, and stayed until Sunday afternoon.
The girls prepared their own dinner Friday evening, and spent the
evening working on the German silver bracelets worn by members of the
organization. In the morning, after breakfast, part of the company went
on a "penny" hike; they flipped pennies to see which direction they
would take: heads meant east, tails west. Their course led them thru the
woods where they gathered colored leaves to use in decoration for the
party honoring faculty advisers that evening.
After a picnic dinner prepared by the girls who stayed behind, the
afternoon was spent in preparing dinner. Many of the faculty advisers
were in Iowa City attending the homecoming game, but two of them, Ida
Iverson and Cora Sundell, were present for dinner and the evening.
Sunday morning the girls all went to church, and after dinner which
they had again prepared for themselves, they broke up. The cheif item of
business accomplished was the decision to hold a bacon bat next Sunday
night as the next general meeting. Theresa Holt, supervisor, was chaperone.
