The boys began early last summer by winning third place for their Harvest Festival Float. Loren Colbeck, Charlie Smith, and Glenn Miller attended the National FFA Convention and brought back many good ideas for the year. Glenn Miller used one for his FFA project; the Freshmen magazine sales, in which John Short was the high salesman. When FFA Week came around, the boys sold bumper stickers and hand- ed out FFA pens. In the spring the FFA boys invited the FHA girls to a roller skating party in Pipestone, Minn. This turned out a good time and it may become an annual happening. In accordance with the city and the Jaycees, the guys built a warming house for the city park. To complete a fine year, the club attended the State FFA Convention in Brookings. Charlie Smith came home with a high rating in Farm Mechan- ics Judging and one team rated highly in another judging contest. This team was made up of Kent Claussen, Larry Diedrich, and Doug Stein. The head table seated Leo Bergman, the Honorary Chapter Farmer, and his wife, President Charlie Smith, Denny Oviatt, speaker, and Mr. Auch, advisor, and his wife. 1
