+ + Industrial Arts Teaches Skills Auto Mechanics and Wood Shop :aught students practical skills. Some students took these skills and pursued a profession while others simply applied them to their every day lives. In the four Auto Mechanics classes, students learned different phases of auto repair. For exam- ple. General Car Maintenance students learned how to change oil and tires. Also, in Small Engines, people were given a chance to overhaul engines and learned how to use measuring instruments. As with Auto Mechanics. Wood Shop taught the basics of wood- working. In Wood I. students were expected to learn how to use hand tools and power tools properly and safely. They also learned how to figure board-foot problems and how to identify different joints and types of woods. After com- pleting a required project, students were asked to make several of their own projects. Ad- vanced Wood students used their knowledge to make more advanced projects.

During the 1981-82 school year, the Marion- Florence FFA Chapter has achiev- ed many accomplishments to help develop leadership, citizenship. “Growing for America is the 1981-82 theme for FFA Organization. The Marion FFA Chapter lives up to this theme and enhances its meaning.” Doug Kjellin Junior Above: After a week of events Junior Cindy Heerey was chosen for Chapter Sweetheart.

Chapter Adviser, Mr. Earl Wine- inger. said about the chapter's ac- complishments, “All accomplish- ments were the result of super per- formance by local individual stu- dents and members working to- gether to accomplish success.” One accomplishment was the honor of receiving the Governor's Citation for Building Our Ameri- can Communities (BOAC). By their good BOAC, Safety, and Na- tional Chapter standings, the Marion Chapter won the Triple Crown Award. Because the Marion Chapter won the Triple Crown Award, they acquired the Garlow Trophy for a year, received a plaque, and the distinction of being the top chapter in Kansas for the year. Besides the various chapter honors there were many individual achievements. Junior Doug Kjellin was chosen as District Treasurer, junior Kathy Hayes placed third in State Extemporaneous Speak- ing, and junior Julian Seaman and freshman Nancy Swartz tied for top honors in Greenhand Informa- tion. These were only a few of the ac- complishments by individual members. There were many other honors and awards varying from Par-Law to Public Speaking to Meats and Livestock Judging. 27
