The most outstanding were: selling advertisements for the football programs, selling tickets and con- cessions at baseball games, and sending a CARE package to Korea. The club also bought a tape recorder for the school. The achievements of the Key Club are many and varied. In the state competition this year the Bartow Key Club placed second in its achievement report. Other accomplishments were the Parent Appreciation Banquet and Model Kiwanis Pro- gram, a model assembly program, and a luncheon for all school leaders.

Non-active since 1946, Summerlin Institute reopened their Co- operative Training Program this year. The program showed im- mediate success from the opening day with twenty-four students enrolled and all placed in jobs and working by the first day of school. The purpose of D.C.T. is to foster and perpetuate the train- ing of those students fairly sure of not going on to college and who want to take up the trades and business professions after graduation from high school. These students go to school in the morning, taking four academic subjects. Then, they work for business establishments and local offices during the afternoon, training for the job they wish to do after graduation. We use the community for our classroom. One of the high-lights of the year was the annual Employer-Employee banquet given by the students for their employers. It was held at the Oaks Hotel. At the banquet, the Certificates of Merit awards were given to Mary Keehan and Louetta Conley, and the outstanding Senior DCT student Trophy was given to Louetta Conley by Loyal Frisbee. This year Jeff Brock and Louetta Conley represented our school at the DCT convention in Daytona Beach. Below: Louetta Conley, Mildred McArthur. Below: Joyce Morgan.
