STANDING - Mr Anestis. Future Teachers of America The F.T.A. is composed of juniors and seniors who desire to make teaching their pro- fession. The purpose of the club is to give pro- spective teachers an idea of what school teach- ing involves and also to give them some prac- tical experience by observing classes and doing some student teaching. The members of the club render a definite service by substituting for teachers. The club began its year with a spaghetti dinner, prepared and served by the officers. The guest of honor, Miss Kirk, gave the members practical information on colleges. Several members attended a meeting on special education at Hempfield Area Senior High, Greensburg, and also the Washington County meeting of all F.T.A. members at California State Teachers' College. Along with observing classes in other schools, the members visited one of the special schools for underprivileged children in Pitts- burgh, took part in the play, The Other Side of the Desk, along with the Engineers Club, and met jointly with the F.T.A. from Midway and Hickory. The oflicers for this year were: Ruth Ann Daniels, president: Mary Beth I-lampson, vice president: Helen Marie Fini, secretary: Eliza- beth Siry, treasurer: and Ellen Bednar, historian.

Tuesday and Friday found most of the McDonald boys counting their pennies on their way to the gym. Five cents was the price for an hour-'s en- tertainment of watching the girls play basketball in the newly-organized G.A.A. tournaments. The G.A.A. was reorganized in the fall of '57 by Miss Doris Dawson, the sponsor. At that time the club chose the following officers: Rose Lesjak, presidentg Marsha Powell, vice president: Mary Hampson, secretaryg Jean Gaitens, treasurer: Sandra Montgomery, pub- licity chairman. ' The club's purpose is to help each member develop the qualities of sportsmanship, courtesy, co-operation, fair play, and leadership through participation in sports. The game began with the Flower Bowl Tournament. ln this mix-up tournament, Foul- able Freshmen found themselves playing on the same teams with Sporty Sophomores, Jumping juniors, and Speedy Seniors. These games re- vealed a sink-em-all Sophomore Fern Smith. A few of the other sharpshootin stars were Gay- nelle Scott, Joette Russell, and Nancy Hamp- son. The clash of the classes was the second basketball tournament. Each class was repre- sented by two teams. ln this round robin series each team played seven games. The deserving Seniors received gold charms. The underclassmen with the highest number of points received letters.
