X. he Distributive Education Clubs of America (DECA) and Cooperative Office Education (COE) are two organizations which are training students for certain types of jobs. The Distributive Ed Club fo- cuses mainly on marketing, management, and merchandis- ing, while the National Student Organization of DE works throughout the nation to pre- pare students. At John Mar- shall, Kathy Crowell is the president and Angle Chapman is the vice president. The Cooperative Office Edu- cation (COE) is basically busi- ness and office jobs. It is a good way to get on-the-job training. To be in DECA Club, a stu- dent must be a senior with a job, which two credits and the class is an additional credit. The COE program is for sophomores, juniors, and sen- iors who are enrolled in some type of business class. These students also earn two credits for having a job and one for the class. The student comes to school in the morning and works in the afternoon. They work about 15 to 20 hours a week at minimum wage, and, at times, work even more. Most of the COE jobs are at Fort Harrison, Community Hospital, Insurance Compan- ies, and Finance Companies. Mrs. Barbara Robertson directs the COE program. Mr. David Russell sponsors the DE pro- gram. Both organizations have a dinner to show their gratitude to all those who helped them out. by Barb Mogollon Photos — Colbert Russell Deca Coe 21

Money means gas in tank for teens X ootball games, movies. cars, hobbies, nice clothes, re- cords, college, and eating out all requires one thing — money! Many Patriots solve their prob- lem of money shortage by get- ting jobs. There is a wide vari- ety of jobs to choose from, but several local employers refuse to hire students. Charmane Dodd, a junior, works in the Emerson Library. She shelves books, answers the telephone, and checks out books. She has several duties, and she says, It ' s good experience. The majority of students who are employed work as cashiers, cooks, or store clerks. Kari Ezell is a cashier at Wicks-N-Sticks. She has worked there for four months. Aside from ringing up sales, Kari also makes up new displays. Dav Mogollon works at McDonalds, and Mark Goff is employed at Osco Drugs. Lisa Murphy cashiers at Wonder- wall Records and Tapes. She is saving her money for a trip to Okefenokee Swamp. For three years, sophomore John Pettway has had a paper route. He deliv- ers the afternoon paper to 42 people everyday. When asked if he likes his job, he replied, No, I just like the money. The majority of the students don ' t like their jobs, but they do like the money. They are given the worst hours, the dirtiest du- ties, and usually, minimum wage, $3.35 per hour, which is better than no wage at all. After all of the necessary things are paid for, some students try to put what ' s left into a savings ac- count for college. When asked what job she would have if she could choose any in the world, junior Lisa Murphy claimed, I would like to be a donut maker. Lori Rogers, I would like to be an astronaut. by Karen Terry Karen Luessow works in the IMC dur- ing school hours, and also profits from her job at Fort Harrison. .Mama told me I ' d make a lot of dough someday! says Scott Ranger of his part-time job at Noble Romans.
