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.
