The first order of business was the election of club officers. Donald F. Love, a graduate of Danville School, Class in Bloomsburg, is in the Drafting and Designing Technology curriculum. Elected Vice-president was George Wanko, a graduate of the Class of 1955 of the Hazleton High School, is in the Business Administration curriculum and resides in Drums.

After the officers were elected, Mr. John Longo, advisor for the club, spoke before the thirty-five members present on the objectives of the club. He outlined a few of the plans for the future. One is the trip to New York in the early part of May to tour the United Nations building and the New York Stock Exchange. Also, he hopes to have discussions on different phases of business. However, this will not take place this semester. Since the Business and Economics Club is to be a perO manent organization at Highacres, these discussions will probably be held the next college term. Guest speakers and movies are to be a part of this active club. Finally, a new activity has been added to Highacres. For those who had the init iative to commence this club, congratulation s are in order. Since extra-curricular activities are a part of a college, and active ones are needed at the Hazleton Campus, this department wishes the Business and Economics Club success in the future.
