Experience The Future Teachers of America Club was established at Genoa this year. F.T.A.'s aim is to help its members to prepare for their careers in teaching. The club undertook many projects to accomplish this aim. lts members sat in on classes here at the high school to observe the methods of various teachers. Later in the year they travelled to Bowling Green State University where they observed the methods of college professors. F.T.A. attempted to further the education of elementary school students through a program on the evils of smoking. At club meetings panel discussions were held with a group of teachers. Along with these edu- cational activities, F.T.A. helped 'to commemorate National Teacher's Week by presenting each teacher with an apple. F.T.A.: STANDING: J. Rinaldo, Pres. FRONT ROW: C. Zalesak.

Smith. - The Future Business Leaders of America had an active year. In the fall they sold mums as. they do every year at the football homecoming game. Their most important project was a candy sale. Through this candy, sale they earned enough money to purchase new electronic machines for the business department of our high school. F.B.L.A.'s goal is to prepare its members for careers as secretaries and other business employees. At one club meeting a teacher from Staut- zen berger Business College spoke tothem about career opportunities in business. In this way and many others, F.B.L.A. was able to accomplish its goal. In the spring the club members went to dinner at Latham's Country House and put a close to a wonderful year.

The make-up committee practices a pplying make-up to Jane Shessler at the dress rehearsal before the Dramatic Club play. The main project of the Dramatic Club was its annual play. This year's play, Lavendar and Old Lace, required weeks of hard work by all club mem- bers to become the huge success that it was. Dramatic Club meetings proved to be both interesting and un- usual. At almost every meeting members put on skits for the others. Also at meetings members gave reports on plays or movies which they had seen since the last meeting and recommended whether or not they were worth seeing. Another project of the Dramatic Club was keeping the make-up kit supplied for plays other than the Dramatic Club play. At the end of the year the Dramatic Club members had a theater party and trav- elled to see a production of the musical Carousel. rt and Drama Make Students kirchner, Treas.: F. Kusian. V-Pres.: S.
