Yearbook Staff No matter how early the staff gets started in the year, it seems we always have to work well into June in putting the book together. This year the staff attended a Jour- nalism Conference held at the State Fair Community College in Sedalia. Members profitted from the work- shop and brought back several ideas to use. We thank everyone for their co-operation and hope you enjoy the 1981 yearbook. UPPER LEFT: Becky Plattner and Mary Weaver cut and sort class pictures.

FHA Activities The FHA started out the year with their annual project of prepar- ing Thanksgiving dinners and delivering them to citizens of Malta Bend. The girls were rewarded by the feeling of satisfaction derived from doing something to make someone happy. Initiation day was greatly an- ticipated by the freshmen girls. They made pancakes and had a contest to see who could eat them the fastest without hands!! Christmas caroling was the December project with a dinner and gift exchange held at the residence of Jim Weaver. Valentine cakes were made and sold for the money-making project. It was quite successful. FHA Week was cut short — it was only three days long because of a snow storm. The year concluded with the Parent-Daughter Banquet. The award of Outstanding FHA Member for the year was presented to Rene Montgomery. Peggy Chevalier received an outstanding award in her class, along with Paula Gorrell, Becky Plattner, and Brenda Weaver, in their classes. Rene Montgomery smiles happily because of her Outstanding FHA Member Award for 1980-1981.

National Honor Society NHS MEMBERS: Superintendent Harold McCoy, Sponsor; Rick Kiehl, Paula Gorrell, Becky Plattner, Sara Blackburn, Mary Weaver. The National Honor Society was quite small this year with only one member. There wasn’t an election of officers since there wasn’t anyone to second the nominations. This year four new members were inducted. They were: Sara Blackburn, Paula Gorrell, Becky Plattner, and Mary Weaver.
