We had to complete a 2,000 hour apprenticeship in a given trade in Industrial Co- operative Training. But we liked going to school half a day and working half a day. Our club gave us the opportunity to share experiences gained from our jobs. ICT members worked in all kinds of special fields as mechanics, auto body men, elecui- cians, machinists, and carpenters to name a few. Club sponsor and class coordinator Mr. Lonnie Bell not only helped us get jobs, but he talked with us about problems at work and at school.

Our Distributive Education coordin- ator also helped us find jobs in var- ious locations. Our on-the-job training at our work stations in re- tail, wholesale, and service selling businesses offered us the opportun- ity to learn and earn at the same time. Attending school half a day and working half a day were made more meaningful by activities such as field trips, contests, parties, and group rap sessions.

Oblique and Isometric Drawings . . . blue ray prints and bow compasses. Really weird sounding words? Not to the guys in Vocational Drafting. Just everyday class talk. Even though they learn to master many fields of the technical world, it is not all work and no play. With Spring Chicken Loy J. Sturch as the instructor, there was room for many exciting events. They went to Brownwood for the district officers meeting in October and then to the Texas State Technological Institute in Waco in Novem- ber. To get in the Christmas spirit, the boys sold mistletoe for the holidays. The District II contest was held at Trimble Tech High in Fort Worth on March 10, Two boys, Larry Campbell and Robert Bridges, placed high enough to go to state. They competed in the state contest on April 21. David Frizzelle prepares mistletoe for selling. Organizations 149
