The Westminster Fellow-
ship of Lamar Tech had its
beginning when Lamar be-
came a four year college in
1951. It was then known as
the Presbyterian Student
association.
This year the students
changed the name of the
Presbyterian group to West-
minster Fellowship, since
it is known on most college
campuses by that name.
Reverend Weikel of Rob-
bins Presbyterian church
was one of the chief forces
in the organization and was
first pastoral advisor. Dr.
Robert Mers was the first
faculty advisor.
The group met in various
rooms of the college until
last year when a home lo-
cated at 934 East Virginia
was converted into a center
for the group. The cozy
center is equipped with a
ping-pong table, piano,
radio-phonograph, a well
equipped kitchen, refresh-
ments, books and games.
A board composed of
members from Presbyter-
ian churches in the sur-
rounding area financially
supports the center and
gives aid whenever called
upon.
The function or purpose of
the Westminster Fellow-
ship is to enrich the student
on the basis of religion and
fellowship. It is often re-
ferred to as "a home away
from home." Working to-
gether the students have a
better knowledge of the
world around them and the
enjoyment ofserving
others.
Activities of the year have
varied. A kick-off banquet
for freshman began the
year. Parties are held al-
most every month, espe-
cially during holidays. The
Christmas caroling p a r t y
ended with t a k i n g a food
basket to a needy family.
Speakers for Christmas and
, Thanksgiving gave pro-
j grams.
An inspiring conference
with A&M was held during
February, when the groups
met to enjoy fellowship and
trade programs.
Members of the Lamar
Fellowship will attend the
Ecumenical conference
March 11, 12 and 13 at
College Station. They will
be in charge of the fellow-
ship hour the first night;
Plans for next year will be
made at a retreat April 15,
16 and 17 to be held at
Camp Ur land.
Meetings are held every
Thursday. Officers of the
We s t m inster Fellowship

Jim Brewster, vice presi-
dent andprogram chairman:
