D.E.C.A. One of the most important organizations in existence at Franklin High School is the Distributive Education Club of America. At the start of this school year, officers were elected and are pictured at D.E. banquet (4). They are: Kathy Campbell, president; Eric Bonney and Bob Priesing, vice presidents and store managers; Colleen Murphy and Mary Thibeault, treasurers; Maureen Ames, historian; Dave Prairie, parliamentar¬ ian. The D.E. store, which is one of the main functions of the D.E.C.A. program, is a busy place at Christmas time with its many merchandise arrivals (3). Each year D.E. travels to the Cape and enters Career Development Conferences. This year there were many trophy winners (2). The 6th Annual D.E. Banquet was held May 21st, at the Franklin Country Club. Enjoying the festive occasion are many Seniors involved in D.E. (5). But D.E. is all made possible through the efforts of the man behind the scenes, the one and only Mr. Gray (1).
