Spare time brushed aside Artistic students created a new organization, the Art Club. Designed to provide a medium for students to appreciate art, the club also introduced them to innovative techniques in creativity. Talented Statesmen were drawn to the club. Participation in the art curriculum wasn't mandatory; anyone with interest could join. Club members dabbled in spreading their art appreciation to the entire school. They planned to construct a fountain in the middle of the courtyard in early spring. Gutter balls and splits were the dreaded terrors of Boioling Club members. The Rolling Statesmen pitched their spare Wednesday afternoons hoping for a lucky break. Striking out for the Bowl America alley in Falls Church, league members competed in a convivial atmosphere. Companionship and enjoyment were just as inviting to members as the opportunity to improve and win awards. Bowlers pinned down a new cause for their league. They conducted a charity drive for the Potomac Lung Association. Students were sponsored by friends and relatives in a charity competition, with sponsors pledging small change for each pin knocked down. Framing their hopes on rewards, some members awaited trophy distribution at the end of the year. All club members received patches from the American Junior Bowling Congress for their involvement in the club. Pressure from the opposing team forces Kevin Schrader to think things over as he mentally adds up his scores before he bowls his next frame. Ross Panncton watches the alley. While attempting her next figure, Emily Vaf-iadou skillfully molds away the excess clay. Perfect form must be mastered by amateur bowler Aimee Balint before becoming more advanced.

Students explore career possibilities Future vocational plans were expressed through the popularity of clubs that enabled students to explore career possibilities. Speakers from several area hospitals lectured about medical fields at meetings of the Medical Careers Club. Enthusiastic club members planned their annual trip to Fairfax Hospital in early spring. At the hospital, students were able to observe medical specialists at work in areas not open to the public. Cashing in on the popularity of styled haircuts, the Vocational Industrial Clubs of America sponsored a Hair-a-thon to raise money. They also sold candles and calendars for Christmas. The club consisted of students from Marshall and other local high schools involved in Marshall's vocational program. Their profits were used to fund several enjoyable trips to local places of entertainment. A camping trip to Manassas was held in November. In the spring, a free hair-styling session was held for local senior citizens. Preparation for vocational careers was extended beyond classroom training by introducing students to the Distributive Education Clubs of America. This club was designed to help students understand various aspects of business such as production, advertising, and mass distribution. Inspiration to develop homemaking skills attracted people to the Future Homemakers of America club. Fund-raising activities included popsicle peddling, and the selling of Homecoming mums. These helped in raking in handsome profits to add to the treasury. Plans were promptly made for a Christmas dinner to be prepared and eaten by Club members.
