FHA At the beginning of the year, quite a few girls showed interest in the Future Homemakers of America (FHA). But, unfortunately, with seniors attending half days, only a few girls continued as members throughout the year. Under the advisement of Mrs. Biggs, the FHA held money-making projects, including the selling of handmade items at the Christmas Bazaar, the selling of singing Valentines, and the setting up of a fish pond at the carnival. The money raised went for the State Conven- tion held on April 3 and 4 in Corvalis to represent the Lost River Chapter. At that “time” new state officers were elected while meetings and work- shops were in session. 1) Girls working on different projects. 2) .Janet and Mary discuss money making ideas. 3) Anne shows Patsy her picture frames. 20 FUTURE HOMEMAKERS OF AMERICA

F.F.A. Although Mr. Ivan Brewer began his first year at Lost River, the Future Farmers of America (FFA) received a leaping start from the beginning. Every student in FFA participated in the annu- al Potato Festival Parade which signified the gen- eral interest displayed to the public. This demon- strated that students were profiting from this type of nonstructured classroom. Tony Herman, a freshman, took first place in Creed Speaking at the District Leadership Contest at OIT. Tony then spent “time” in Gresham at the Sectional District Leadership Contest where he took 4th place. Opposite page 1. Jenny, Loren, Dave try to be serious when repairing the fence. 1.

CLUB This year the Chess Club functioned on a very informal basis under the advisement of Mr. Brewer. The Chess Club did not compete in any tour- naments, nor did it play against opponents from any near-by high schools. What the Chess Club did do, though, was to practice the skills which they had already learned and also learned new ones in the process. Quite a few students turned out for this club to acquire “new” maneuvering techniques: that’s when the “time” came to put their heads to work. Top row L to R: S. Boot, J.
