A business student works on an adding machine. Debra Larkin amidst many a calculation. Laboring Toward The Future Do you know who our next business leaders of America will be? Probably the students here at Green Mountain that are involved in FBLA. FBLA's, as you've probably already guessed, Future Business Leaders of America. There are three parts offered to FBLA the club, the class, and on the job training. The club is an extension of the class office occupations. There were 30 to 40 in the club this year. ln class the students worked on secretarial projects. Each is an individual approach. This way students can work at a pace that they can learn at with learning the most skills that they can. Also the students can work according to their own interests. Two-thirds of the members in FBLA had office jobs. Those students who held a steady part time job earned a credit besides the one earned for class for a maximum of 2 credits. The students who are a member of FBLA felt that is a good way to prepare for the future. They can learn skills in class to use on the job or even every day life. Being a part of such a group gives the students something to lean on while looking for an office occupation. It is a good organization for any student interested in a business career replied Diane Mashman, sponsor of FBLA. Many people seem to agree. If you are one who is interested in joining office occupations keep in mind that the prerequisite is typing I and intro to business. Class works individually on their projects. Chris Baker works intensely on her materials. Tammy Dockstader works diligently on her assignment. 2' l l ill?

The front lobby appears nearly empty as the first air band concert is in progress. Only fifteen more minutes until the next show starts. What? Forty-Eve minutes until the next one begins? Oh well. It's okay to be early once in a while, As the time dwindles away, thirty-two minutes, twenty-six minutes, the lobby fills slowly. All of a sudden, the first performance is over and boyd after body bursts out of the auditorium doors. The lobby is packed once more. Sweaty band members mingle among the spectators before it's time to go on stage again. The auditorium is then stuffed with students, litle brothers and sisters, parents, and teachers. Master of ceremonies Russ Elliot entertains the audience with a three-piece suit, shorts, towel, fuzzy pink hat, and high top tennies. He needs a microphone to be heard above all of the remarks aimed at him. Performers peeking through the curtain before time to start gives the audience a sneak preview of what is to come. Some 55 groups who tried out were narrowed down to the 12 in the competition. There were pink ladies from the 50's, Tootsie Rolls from Harlem, and 1984 jumping to success. First place went to the group called 1984', who had just finished filming an M-TV segment before coming to GM Qso the audience was toldj, and who did the Van Halen song, g'Jump. There was a tie for second between Banned and Boy's Club. Those in Banned had smiles for the audience, and those in Boyis Club must have spent the weekend with Culture Club. The three bands performed at a Winterfest assembly. The audience saw instruments at their fingertips and metronomic perfection on their lips. 1984's Mike Lane, Sean Dowdell, Jeff Shearer and Rod Schreiber dedicate one to the audience. The junior Waitresses sing their hearts out. Members of B0y's Club Scott McMullen, Doug Rollowitz and Rob Stevens play it like it is. , 5 2, ' , f mt? 0 I Y s
