64 Red Cross Fifteen Receive Emblems As New Hospital Workers Through countless hours of voluntary service, and through unselfish dedication to community and school, the Junior Red Cross launched a fall enroll- ment drive to raise funds for the local chapter. Now in its hundredth year, the newly raised funds will be used to expand a now far-reaching program to a new glove-stretching one. Working diligently for five months, students of Mrs. Jerri Sutton's Senior Government class pre- pared a special scrapbook of George Wythe activ- ities to be sent by the Red Cross to Norway. Be- sides volunteer service as ''teen aiders'’ at McGuire Hospital, members of the Junior Red Cross re- ceived training in mass feedings and disaster team- work at Fort Lee. To conclude the year, fifteen members of the organization received their voluntary service pins. Mary McKendrick receives her pin for outstanding volun- tary service as a teen aider from Mrs. C. Foster at the final meeting of the Junior Red Cross during the school year. ' 7 Lm) i Ee mr Front Row: Miss Gay, sponsor, Diane Dickson, secretary, Mary McKendrick, president, Mrs. Foster, sponsor.

Abernathy, Distributive Education Club Extensive Survey Compiled By Alert Business Students 'Busy-as-a-bee’’ DE students of Richmond bus- tled all over the city carrying on an extensive sur- vey for Richmond businessmen. They asked ques- tions to discover the types of articles customers pre- ferred and where they bought them. The group compiled the results and presented them to the businessmen in the form of a brochure. In keeping with the Christmas tradition of giving, the club adopted' ’ two families. They supplied the fami- lies with money, clothes, food, and many gifts tor the children. The DE Club competed in district, state, and national contests. This year in district competition it placed in every contest. Ivan Perkinson, George Wythe DE president, was also elected state president, won a four-year scholarship to Richmond Professional Institute from a local company.
