Early in the school year a program of work was set up as well as a point sheet for FFA activities. An early activity was a tour of the Funk Farms where we saw many interesting seed test plots of corn and soybeans and enjoyed a tour through the seed com processing plant. All the ofhcers attended the Sectional FFA Oicers' Training School held at Lexington. On September I0-I I, ten boys exhibited their projects at the Sectional FFA Fair at El Paso. The boys received 387.75 in premiums., Nineteen boys at- tended the International Livestock Show in Chicago on Nov. 28-29 and saw the grand champion steer selected. Cecil Dagley drove the bus for us. Dads who went with us included Mr. Lawson Fulton, Mr. Roy jones, and lVlr. Virgil Martens. Two board members, Mr. Dan Hanley and Mrs. James Mob- erly, and our advisor, Mr. Pearce, made the trip. Some places of interest visited besides the Livestock Show were the American Air Lines Airport: U. S. Weather Bureau: Sears-Roebuck Mail Order House, Cook County Criminal Court: the House of Correction. We stayed overnight at the Palmer House Hotel. A chili supper was held for the members and their dads on Jan. 29. This was well attended and another supper was held later on in the spring. The carnival held by the FFA and FHA, Feb. 7, was well attended and was a success financially. A Donkey Basketball game on Feb. 23 proved very entertaining and reasonably profitable. The annual F HA-FFA family night potluck supper held on Feb. 28 afforded an excellent meal, and a good program completed the evening. The annual pest-killing contest with four teams on a class basis closed April 2 with the losing team giving a party for the winners. Our chapter sponsored the Sectional Officers' banquet March 2l. The meal was prepared and served by the F HA. Some of the other activities of the year were swimming parties at the YMCA: roller skating parties: selling rat poison bait, Christmas cards, garden seeds, and cement hog troughs. Popcorn was sold at all the home games. The major FFA project for the year was to sponsor and finance a new flag pole in the school yard. Each FFA member has kept a project record on one or more home projects. They include: 9 dairy, 8 swine, 7 beef, 5 sheep, 2 com, 8 poultry, 8 garden, and I rabbit. The 'labor and manage- ment earnings on these projects was S4.Z72.92. Members who moved away or quit school dur- ing the year included Arlie Crutchley, Bobby Geske, James Golden, Frank Hanley, Richard Kel: sey, Charles Smith, and Hollis Taylor. Many members own FFA jackets, rings, ties, pins, etc., and display the FFA metal markers. We feel that we have had a very interesting and profitable year. Q
