Early in the year the Fixerupper's club held a candle-light formal service at which the following officers were installed: Mary Sudie Myers, presi- dent, Mary Virginia Klein, vice president, Mary Cosner, secretary, and Frances McGraw, treasurer. Ruth Brown was named program chairman, Max- ine Bryant, social chairman, Betty Allen, song leader, and Marietta Danenberger, Lucille Caswell, and Jane Edwards, publicity chairmen. The club had two meetings each month, one social and one business. The club was again affiliated with the American Home Economics association. The point system was installed this year. The Fixeruppers were quite active during the year. A trip to Chicago was the goal set by the club. To make money, a. bake sale was held, at which cakes, cookies, and rolls were sold. The club sold hot dogs, chocolate milk, and orange-ade during the tournament, held two chili luncheons during the month of February, served the county schoolmas- ter's dinner in March and an all-school Christmas party which was held in December. In March the Fixeruppers club sponsored a cour- tesy week and presetated a program on nutrition for a combined meeting of the Woman's club. They also gave this program for the PTA in February. The year's social activities were a formal installa- tion, a formal initiation with candle-light ceremony at which twenty-six new members were initiated: the mothers program which was in May, and the joint party with the FFA club. The big social event of the year sponsored by the Fixeruppers was The Snow Frolic. Two delegates will be sent by the Fixeruppers to the state club camp this summer. Ruth Brown and Mary Cosner represented the club at the homo economics state camp Bloomington last June. Miss Ruth Mixa, instructor, was named state club sponsor for the 1942 year. Page Twenty-seven
