The Climax Chapter of FFA, though active in previous years, has really outdone itself during 1955-56. One by one these boys have accomplished the goals set forth in their program of work. Last fall they attended the State Fair in Richmond as a group and later were present at the Lynchburg Farm Show. In the Federation For- estry Judging Contest the chapter placed third and, in the Federation Public-Speaking Contest, Keith Shelton ' sspeech Bang ' s Disease won fourth place. As one of their most impressive projects the FFA boys undertook to raise money for Ed Walsh, a FFA boy from Illinois who is stricken with infantile paralysis. Until the end of the yearevery member donated six cents each day. These donations amounted to $100. Letters were sent to other FFA chapters in Virginia requesting donations. At the end of the campaign the chapter was able to count a grand total of $300. These boys should be highly commended for their efforts to aid a more un- fortunate fellow member. Leland Mahan, one of the most outstanding FFA members in the Federation, was named Chapter Star Farmer for the year. Mr. Dunnavant is now training these boys thoroughly in preparation for the Degree Team Contest. They are very hopeful for they have wonPfirst place for the last two years. Mr. Halligan, Wallace Shelhorse, and Mr. Dunnavant look on as Leland Mahan presents a $300 check to Mr. W. C. Dudley, Area Supervisor of Vocational Agricul- ture. Thischeck will be presented to Ed Walsh, an Illinois FFA boy who is a victim of polio. 42
