FTA Slates Field Trips The Future Teachers of America did many interesting things this year to help acquaint its members with the career of education and other aspects of teaching. In the line of field trips, the FTA went to Vandenberg Air Force Base to visit the school for the handicapped. Other field trips were taken to UCSB, UCLA, Cal Poly and various elementary schools. Highlights of this year's activities included a trip to the Statler Hilton Hotel for a teachers' conference, distribution of flowers in April in honor of Teacher Appreciation Day and finally a luncheon for the teachers of Cabrillo to show FTA appreciation for their outstanding work. mx!

Future Farmers Have Exciting Year The Future Farmers of America at Cabrillo had a busy year during T967-68. Led by the officer team of Bowen, Kirkland, and the Clevelands, the F.F.A. had an exciting and profitable year. Activities started off with a bang in the year as their peanut and program sales at the football games kept them busy. The profits from this activity were then invested in a 60-acre crop of oat hay planted on the La Purisma Mission, which was farmed by the chapter on a lease agreement with the park service. Proiects this year have also included a poultry project for meat production, consisting of fifty birds. The chapter constructed a holding pen for livestock next to the ag shop and also a larger livestock area adioint to the base- ball diamond. Other proiects include beef, sheep, pigeons, ducks, rabbits and grain raised by individual members. The chapter participated in various con- tests such as Best Informed Chapter, Co-op Quiz Contest, Public Speaking, Parliamen- tary Procedure, and welding. Social functions were not left out as they had excellent refreshments at all meetings prepared by the girls in 5th period Ag Science, plus dancing, basketball, ca chicken barbeque and the annual parent-son ban- quet. Feeding and observing their stock is only a part of the activities the F.F.A. does. 81
