Cooking Club One of the newer additions to the list of Ew- ing's activities, is the Cooking Club for Boys. Under the supervision of Miss Diane Tuttle, three different clubs meet on Tuesdays, Thurs- days, and Fridays to learn the basic principles of cookery. The club is extremely popular, en- rolling over sixty members. lt appears that girls are not the only chefs at Ewing. Throughout the year, the boys have con- cocted such savory dishes as apple fritters, Spanish rice, chili con carne, spaghetti, pizza pie, cakes, and cookies. Miss Tuttle hopes some day to teach a minor cooking class for boys as the girls now have. Seated: Mr. Irving Jiras, Becky Brentleck, Ralph Jemison, Drina Coleman, and Kay Lore. Standing: Clyde Johnson, Nancy Jean Smith, Barbara Jensen, Bill Smith, Pearl Tinsley, Rusty Van Fleet, and John Aroniss.

Junior Red Club The tirst and third Monday of every month is the meeting date of the active Junior Red Cross. The representatives from all homerooms in the school have accomplished much social and charity work this year. The club has chosen Beckie Brenfleck as its president. Mr. Irvin Jiras is the club advisor. Some of the work done in 1955-56 by this group has been a membership drive, a book drive for the children at Skill- man Hospital, writing portfolios for the soldiers at Fort Dix and also the making of checker- boards. 61

The Ewing High School Future Teachers of America Club, under the direction of Mrs. Deborah Kvam, is open to students in the ninth through twelfth grades who plan to teach. lts purposes are to encourage interest in teach' ing, develop teaching ability, and help students choose a career. Activities of this club during the year included conducting installation services, attending conventions, observing in classrooms, listening to guest speakers, and holding many informative discussions. Golf Club The only short cut to acquiring a sound golf game is the right start. Keeping this in mind Mrs. Martin, the club proctor, has instituted an eleven point program which she hopes will achieve this aim. Such fine points of the game as the design and purpose of the clubs, the swing, putt- ing, and common errors encountered by the players, have been studied. This course of study will be oug- mented by practice on local courses. Kneeling: Ed Lugo, Linn Robinson, Neal Lenhart.
