Sandra Lee Breuscher '66 has been named winner of the 1966 Soroptimist Club of Des Plaines scholarship.

This scholarship is awarded annually to a senior girl who plans to enter the teaching profession. This year Sandy will use the $300 grant when she enters Concordia Teachers College in September.

Sandy and her parents were the special guests at the Soroptimist Club's Installation Banquet and Dance which was held on Saturday. May 28, at the Concord Motor Inn. At this time, the award was presented to her by Mrs. C. W. Tomsheck, scholarship chairman.

Sandy ranks 24 in the senior class of 590 at Maine West and was a semi‑finalist in the National Merit Scholarship program. Her school activities include: GAA, National Honor Society, Future Teachers of America, senior leader, and library assistant.

In applying for this grant, she sent a letter to the Soroptimist Club scholarship committee telling why she had chosen to go on to college. In this, Sandy stated: "I like people; I like to watch them and wonder what they are thinking about and why they act the way they do.

"I guess most of all I like little children. The attitudes they develop when they are young will be a basis for their whole lives. This is why I want to be a teacher.
