Mrs. Bonnie Robison has led the Future Home- makers of America in a year of successful activi- ties. Some of the highlights of the past year include: a chili feed, the FFA-FHA Pheasant Feed, serving Pine Ridge dinners, the Sweetheart Dance, and just plain good ole get-togethers. FHA Week was April 1st to the 5th in which the girls observed the 22nd birthday of FHA. During this week they did such things as picking up trash, washing car windows, presenting an assembly for the high school students, a Be Nice to Faculty Day, and dress up day. Conventions throughout the year include Kearney Workshop at Kearney in May which four girls at- tended, the District Convention at Oskosh for all members at which Linda Roes was District Recrea- tion Chairman, and State Convention at Lincoln. Barb Becker and Sylvia Klemke were the dele- gates. The qualification for this organization is to com- plete one semester of home economics, but this year FHA accepted Linda Golka as an honorary member. There are 22 members which have aided the activities of this organization. Mrs. Doyle Dyer served as the chapter mother for the 67-68 FHA year. THIS TRIO, WHO colled themselves The Swing- ing Curls, exemplified their attitude toward FHA in their presentation of Thank Heaven For FHA. A GROUP OF the FHA girls presented a skit, Is There a Train Coming?

Pep Club, H-Club Join for Spirit THE CHEERLEADERS FREQUENTLY involved HHS team members in short skits to liven up the pep rallies. COACH SNYDER LOOKS thoughtfully at the re- sults of the girls' track meet at Bayard. The purpose of a letterman's club in any school is mainly to pro- mote more interest in athletics. To letter and thus become a member of this type of club is an honor. Such an organization exists at HHS. It has 25 members and is sponsored by Mr. Phil Snyder. Mr. Snyder believes that the H-Club is an organization run by the athletes themselves, which enhances athletics. It provides a goal for each athlete to work toward and thus serves as a stimulant to the sportsminded young men at HHS. SPIRIT LEADERS FOR the 67-68 school year were Vorsity leoders-Cathy Johnson, Nancy White, Doris Wood, Joyce Kiester, and Candis Stumf. Reserve leaders-Denice Pipitt, Marcia Price, Ju- lie Rojas. Jan Moeller, and Kathy Prochozka. SPIRIT INVOLVED SPONSORS and teach- ers os well as students as is illustrated by Mrs. Pat Snyder, pep club sponsor, as she adds a vote of confidence. 14
