Future Teachers of America The Clifton FTA was very active during the school year of 1959-60. At the first meeting, chairmen were chosen for committees to assist at each meeting of the year. Mr. Meneley was guest speaker for the first meeting in September. Each member brought a classmate to the meeting. In October the members traveled to Duncan to attend the County FTA meeting. Clifton members were elected to three top offices. They were: vice-president, Nedra Webster; secre- tary-treasurer, Mary Arlene Salcido; and historian, Mary Albo. In November members were chosen as assistants to the elementary teachers. The purpose of assisting the elementary teachers is to give FTA members an idea of the goals and duties of a teacher. In December, the FTA members enjoyed a Christmas Stephen and Irene fulfill their FTA duties. PartV- ToVs were collected and sent to the Sunshine Acres Children's Home in Tempe. The club also presented Mrs. Sophia Farnsworth with a Christmas gift. The Clifton Chapter of FTA is named after Mrs. Farnsworth. In Feb- ruary the FTA assisted with the polio drive. In March, s e 1 e c t e d members traveled to Phoenix to attend the state convention at North Phoenix High School. Local FTA officers for the year were: president, Irene Urquidi; vice-president, Sharon Gough; secre- tary, Mary Salcido; treasurer, Nedra Webster; parliamentarian, Carol Rietz; historian, Mary Albo; and student council representative, Patsy DeLeon.

The annual staff of 1959-60 chose Dan Danenhauer, editor; Gretna Phinizy, assistant editor; and Christine Dow, business manager. Annual sponsor was Miss Chancellor. The major activity of the staff was publishing the 1959-60 edition of the Trojan. Supplemen- tary activities were: a Christmas party for the staff and their guests, a sock-hop after the Safford-Clifton game, and the concession stand at the Silver City-Clifton football game. At the start of the school year the staff sold advertising space in the annual to merchants of Clifton, Morenci, Duncan, and Safford. Then after this selling campaign, the decision was made on the size of the annual to be published. Much work was done on the annual during the publica- tions period which is a part of the regular school day. However, much time was also spent after school in order to complete the task of annual publication. The final deadline for annual copy was set for March 15 in order that delivery of the Trojan could be made late in May be- fore the end of the school year.
