Future Homemakers of America Have Active Year An active year was enjoyed by the Future Homemalcers of America, sponsored by Miss Delores Ammons. At a candlelight ceremony early in the year, Margie Beth Hull was installed as president: Ruth Ann Daniels as vice presidentg Peggy Brenlcus, secre- tary: Bonnie Jo Weimer, treasurer: Helen Marie Fini, historian: and lVlary Ann Siry, degree chairman. The F. H. A., which is affiliated with a nation- wide organization, is composed of sophomore, junior, and senior girls who are interested in preparing them- selves to be capable homemakers. The girls worked hard at collecting toys at Christmas time to be sent to the orphanage sponsored by the F. H. A. This activity was in line with the club objective to make a contribution of service to society. Several of the girls attended the F. H. A. Sub-regional B meeting held at Moon Union High School. Another interesting and profitable activity of the club was the selling of candy during the home basketball games. The year was climaxecl by a successful Mother and Daughter banquet.

Three cheers for our indis- pensable girls in red and white. The '57 cheerleaders of McDonald High began practicing early in August. Under the leadership of Alice Lienard, head cheerleader, they worked tire- lessly, learning new songs and routines. Displaying co-ordination and split-second timing, the girls strut their stuff at pep assemblies and foot- ball and basketball games. The Old McDonald Spirit has been kept alive by the vigor and enthusiasm of these girls through- out the school year. The linal assembly of the football season is high- lighted by a comic football game which has become traditional at McDonald High, in which the cheer- leaders become football stars and the first-string team are transformed into a yelling mob. During half time, there is a parade including several senior boys dressed as majorettes and clowns. Sponsors for the cheerleaders were Mrs. Rosana Campbell and Miss June Campbell. Not pictured is Isabelle Robertson, substitute cheerleader. STANDING tleft to right? - Anna Marie Sansone. Rachel Hughey, Al- ice Lienard, Gloria Hennon, Patricia Berry. SEATED - Mrs. Campbell.

Future Teachers of America Organize The Future Teachers, a newly-organized club, is made up of sophomores, juniors, and seniors who desire to make teaching their profession. The purpose of the club is to give prospective teachers an idea of what school teaching involves and also to give them some practical experience. The Future Teachers render a definite service by substi- tuting for teachers. After the club received its charter at the begin- ning of the year, it became an organized club in McDonald High School. The members of the club, with lVlr. Plato Anestis as sponsor, started the year by electing Rachel Hughey, president: and Ruth Ann Daniels, vice presi- dent. Other officers elected were Margie Beth Hull, secretary-treasurer, and Mary Beth l-lampson, his- torian. There are seven graduating members in the club this year. Several of them have already been accepted at various colleges, where they will major in the field of education. The student body of Nl. H. S. wishes the Future Teachers of America many more successful years in McDonald High School. FIRST ROW Cleft to rightl - Camellia Toulouse.
