In the fall part of the club treasury was Spent for stage furniture for the senior play. The money had accumulated through pro- fits from concession rights in the school. As there were only three members left from last year, the club was rather delayed in starting. It was not offic- ially organized until shortly before the end of the first semester. Jean Hardenbergh was elected president, with Sue Schweda as vice-president, Joan Kasten as secretary, and Harvey Pankonin as treasurer. The production of a three-act play, WA little Honey,H early in May ended the c1ub's successful year.

The Ela High branch of the Future Farmers of America consisted last year of twenty-one members. At the first meet- ing officers were elected as follows: Wayne Sandman, presi- dentg Bob Ladd, vice-presidentg Harvey Pankonin, secretary, and Paul Cbenauf, watch dog. The advisor for the group was Mr. Allen. The F.F.A. was one of the most active organizations in school. In October the boys sponsored an all-school hay ride party, and several ill-fated toboggan parties were held dur- ing the winter. The organization raised some money by sell- ing chances on a turkey, which was raffled off at a basket- ball game shortly before Christmas. In December the members of the F.F.A. made a trip to the International Livestock Exposition in Chicago, and dur- ing the year the boys went on several project tours. Last summer the F.F.A. boys won many prizes at county fairs, and they hope to do as well next summer.

The HBear Factsu proved to be a growing and improving organization during its second year of existence. The pa- per, consisting of six pages, was given out every other Fri- day at the end of the seventh period. This year the UBear Factsn was sold only on a subscription basis. The cost was 254 per semester. This plan proved to be successful, and it saved a lot of time and effort for the staff. The staff was composed of volunteer students, and the typing was done by members of the advanced typing class. Miss Ruehmer was the faculty advisor for the paper. In the elections held early in the fall, Sally Phelps was chosen editor, with Phoebe Burnett as her assistant. The heads of the various departments of the paper were: Jean Hardenbergh, feature editorg Bill Brown, sports editor, Marlene Eide, news editor, Mariann Shroyer, art editorg and Ronnie Myers and Norma McDaniel, business managers. Because most of the staff and the typists will graduate this year, the remaining lower classmen will have to start looking for new talent in order to continue the NBear Facts.U
