Among other guest speakers three former Peace Corps volunteers-Mr. Douglas Rentell and Mr. James Dzierwa who lived in Morocco and Mr. Roger Nye who worked in Turkey-discussed the rigorous Peace Corps training and several of their unusual experiences during their assignments. Using proceeds from the Christmas UTree of Lights cam- paign, the club donated more than 515200 to CARE. International Relations Club and sponsor Mrs. Marilyn Woodbury climaxed their activities in March with a hootenany featuring folk songs from many different nations. Students from neighboring high schools and colleges participated in this club- sponsored song fest.

Vocations FUTURE TEACHERS OF AMERICA Sponsored by Mrs. Harriet Lucco, Future Teach- ers of America devoted time to gaining knowledge of the teaching profession. Club activities included frequent talks by teachers and counselors of ele- mentary and secondary schools. Members of FTA also participated in a tutoring program at Turner Elementary School, and assisted teachers at KHS by filing and grading papers during study hall periods. Local junior high schools and elementary schools allowed Future Teachers to spend a portion of the school day observing teaching techniques and procedures. Mehlville Senior High School held the Annual South County Symposium on February 21. Pre- pared for local FTA clubs, the convention offered a program of speakers and a banquet. FTA used club funds to grant its most deserving member a 3200 college scholarship. To supply the treasury for the award, members sold candy, baked goods and KHS stationery, and provided coat- checking service at school dances.
