Teachers Prepare For The Future On the eleventh of December another new club was added to the DeVilbiss roster of organi- zations. Miss O ' Brien and the officers of the Scott Future Teachers of America performed the instal- lation ceremony for the DeVilbiss Future Teachers of America at a tea in our library. Mr. Nauts in introducing the main speaker, Mr. E. L. Bowsher. gave a short talk on interesting incidents in teach- ing. Mr. Bowsher spoke on the future of teaching. Fifteen members signed the charter. The membership was open to sophomores, juniors, and seniors with at least a C average who have an interest in the teaching profession. The purposes of the F.T.A. are to develop among young people preparing to be teachers a good national and state organization; to acquaint teachers in training with the history, ethics, and program of the organized teaching profession: to give teachers in training practical experience in working together on the problems of the profes- sion and the community; to interest the best young men and women in education as a lifelong career; to encourage careful selection of persons admit- ted to schools which prepare teachers; to seek through the dissemination of information and through higher standards of preparation to bring teacher supply and demand into a reasonable bal- ance. For the initiation of new members in March several members of the DeVilbiss faculty spoke on Why I Am A Teacher. Teachers of special class- es, such as speech and sight-saving, furnished one program and small study groups working on the various types of education interested all the mem- bers. Requirements Of Certification, Your Fu- ture in Education, and Difficulties Of Teaching were the subjects for other discussions. The president who presided over all meetings was Arlyne Stoll; the vice-president and program chairman was Peggy Lukens; keeping the minutes of meetings and handling all correspondence was the secretary, Mary Satre; Sue Boesel collected the dues as treasurer; the librarian who files and distributes all literature was Marianne Goodyear; Nancy Reister saw that we always used correct pro- cedure as parilianientarian; the history of the club and the club scrapbook was kept by Joyce Rehn.

Prospective Homemakers And The DeVilbiss Future Homemakers of Amer- ica grew this year with an addition of twenty-five new members who joined after receiving invita- tions showing the chib emblem and colors. The can- dlelight initiation was held at the home of Ar- lyne Stoll while Gloria Smith relinquished her basement for the rough initiation ceremony. During November we wrapped and mailed twenty Christmas gifts to the World Festivals for Friendship for children overseas. Late in Janu- ary we received fifteen artistic, personal thank-you cards for these packages. December found us at a Christmas party at Darlene Lange ' s home. We gave up our gift ex- change in preference to entertaining fifty-two ten to twelve-year-old children at the Miami Children ' s Home on the Monday before Christmas. We also decorated a hall display case at DeVilbiss under the leadershif) of Gloria Smith and Carolyn Stein- liauer. The committee chairmen for the year were: Program — Carolyn Steinhauer; Social — Shirley Behm; Project — Ronnie Engelke; Publicity — Dar- lene Lange; Membership — Edith Upson. The home economics department of the Uni- versity of Toledo was the topic of a tour and tea in February. A conducted tour through LaSalle ' s and a St. Patrick ' s Day party formed the meetings of March. Speakers from the Gas Company and Toledo Edison Company augmented by Miss Marie Stoll talking on her trip to England held the interest of the members in later meetings. Plans were made for a dance and bake sale to make money for the treasury. The purposes of the club are to promote a growing appreciation of homemaking, to work to- ward good home life for all, to promote interna- tional good will, to develop leaders, to provide wholesome recreation, to further interest in home economics. Officers for the year were Gloria Smith, Pres- ident; Arlyne Stoll, Vice-President; Ellen Cole, Secretary; Gwen Treby, Treasurer; Janet Rees, In- ter-Club Council Representative; Nancy Terry, Historian; Miss Marie Stoll and Miss Mary Barg- mann, advisers. 94

A Capella Choir Achieves Success One full hour — that was the joy of the A Ca- pella Choir. This was the first year that the choir really had a chance to practice without interrup- tions. In the past most of us ate lunch during our rehearsal time. Naturally the results were a bit confusing, but now everything has been changed. Over the roar of the machines in the workshops which surround our room, M-13, no other sound could be heard within a radius of several blocks. The true tones of the A Capella Choir were not audible even to the members themselves. Our group consisted of thirteen sopranos, nine altos, four baritones, five tenors, and nine basses. During the year, most of us were given a chance to sing solo parts with the choir. The social event of the year was a Christmas caroling party at the home of Nancy Stalker. Be- cause of the cold weather, the hot chile which she served was even more delicious. At the close of our party we presented Mr. Zaugg with a white shirt, flashy necktie, and socks to match. We sang Christmas Carols in the program in our DeVilbiss library at Christmastime. This pro- gram is one event which builds up the holiday spirit at DeVilbiss and we certainly enjoy partici- pating in it. The Kiwanis Club enjoyed the selections we sang for them at a noon luncheon at LaSalle ' s. We sang in the City Choral Parade at the Toledo Museum of Art in December and then we sang for two Lenten Services at Trinity Church. The an- nual Choral Festival in which all the choruses of the city participate was held in the Peristyle of the Art Museum in May. Ki Punches was our pianist this year and he added the finishing touches. Joe Henry filled in as conductor when Mr. Zaugg was busy. But our champion, the light of our lives, was J. Philip Zaugg. No one can surpass his sense of humor, patience, or that twinkle in his eye when we were on pitch. The seniors will always remember the pleased expressions of serenity when they had sung well or the motions of his hands that coaxed from them faint diminishes and lusty cre- scendos. 96
