FTA, SLAM, Drama Clubs Provide Activity Tutoring is the specialty of the Future Teachers of America here at JFK. Under the excellent direction of Mrs. Wertz, their advisor, thirteen students taught children at the Smith Elementary School during the last semester of the year. For their end-of-the-year function, the FTA tutors took all their students on 21 field day to the Detroit Zoo. SLAM is otherwise known as the State Library Assistants Association of Michigan. Under the super- vision of Mrs. Maxwell and Mr. Powlesland, its mem- bers are trained in many library techniques for future careers. Unfortunately pictures of this organization were not made available to the yearbook. Two successful plays, 'The Man Who Came to Dinner', and 'Hamletf were staged by the Drama Club this year. Mr. Furbush directed both produc- tions while serving as the club's advisor. Through this organization, Thespians were able to display their acting talents or merely enjoy being a 'ham, once in a while. 54 Activities 4-I-1 I!!
