The newly formed Sigmund, Psy- chology Club, introduced a fresh topic of investigation into school organizations. Although Sigmund started later than most of the other clubs, this fact did not keep students from joining the Psy- chology Club. Speakers on such topics as mental tele- pathy and reincarnation were g uests at the club ' s meetings. Other activities in- cluded a visit to the state mental hospital and a conference at Carroll High School. One Sunday, members attended a service at a Spiritualistic Church with sponsors Mrs. Gloria Korach and Mrs. Patricia Brannock. The year ' s money making pro- ject was selling eggs. President Carolyn Douglas keeps Sigmund ' s meetings running smoothly as they discuss their future activities. 90 Organi7ations

Under the leadership of President Carol Bell and sponsor Mrs. Jo Cranford, the club collected toys for a family and pre- sented them at Christmas. Last spring the students honored their employers at the annual Employer- Appre- ciation Banquet. The end of school brought encouragement from employers to keep working, only full time. Industrial Cooperative Training is an organization open to those students in- terested in special training for future pro- fessions. Students attend one class period a day under Mr. Benson Bailess along with their usual required classes. One half of the day is free for students to work for their employers. I.C.T. sold candy at the beginning of the year and wreaths at Christmas for their fund raising projects. Fifteen members attended the State contest in Austin in March. Competition was held in each designated area of work in the fonn of a written test and a test on work pertaining to each individual student. 92 Organizalions
