Miss Donna Krultz, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Sylvian Krultz, has earned Greenwood High School's highest rating in the national 1960 Betty Crocker Homemaker of Tomorrow contest. This was a 50 minute written examination on homemaking knowledge and attitudes taken by graduating senior girls.

Miss Krultz will received an award pin representing the slogan "Home to where the heart is," and her examination paper will be submitted for competition with other high school winners to name the state Betty Croker Homemaker of Tomorrow.

Each state winner will receive a $1,500 scholarship and an educational trip April 23 – 29 with her school advisor. The tour will include New York City and colonial Williamsburg, and will culminate with the American Table Banquet in Washington, D.C. on April 28 at the Statler Hilton Hotel, where the All-American Homemaker of Tomorrow will be announced. The runner-up in each state will receive a $500 scholarship; the school of each state winner will be given a set of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

The scholarship of the All-American Homemaker of Tomorrow will be increased to $5,000. The second, third and fourth ranking Homemakers of Tomorrow in the nation will receive $4,000, $3,000 and $2,000 scholarships, respectively.

Miss Dorothy Krultz, sister of last year's school winner, was last year's Wisconsin state winner of the Betty Crocker contest. Dorothy is a student at Marquette University this year.
