The purposes of this club are to promote leadership, scholarship, thrift, and to arouse enthusiasm in farming. lnitiating their new members on October 29 was the most hilarious event of the year, especially when there were twenty-one green-hands. As one of the projects, they went on a field trip to the University of Hawaii, where they attended the products show.. ln response to a call for help in the school carnival, the F. F. A. boys took complete charge of the dance and baseball throw, from which they netted a neat sum. One of the most outstanding activities was their sending three delegates, Albert Tamura, Bob Chinen, and Bob Hirota to the annual F. F. A. conference held on Kauai during Easter vacation. Bob Hirota represented the chapter in the oratorical contest, in which he placed second. After returning, the boys re- ported about the business discussed at the conference and the pleasure side of the trip. With the Future Homemakers as guests, a moonlight picnic was held in May. Climaxing their year, they held a reunion, in the latter part of May in honor of former members of the lames Dole Chapter.
