All , Health Careers aid society Every year three million homeless dogs and cats are born in Houston and the number continues to grow. ALLY, animal loving youth, is a society designed to aid and find homes for these animals. We try to lessen the burden of the humane society, SPCA, and the pound by finding homes for stray animals, said President Iordan Ronn. Presently ALLY has not found many homes for animals. Problems in keeping and feeding them till a home is found hinder their efforts. We had a book sale at Westwood mall and made over S140. We im- mediately donated it to the Humane Society, said Ronn. We only support the Humane Society because they are the only organization that does not kill the animals, said Ronn. Designed to encourage and bring together students interested in health careers, the Health Careers club was formed. We are short of members but I think interested people just do not know about us, stated Sponsor Mrs. Betty Cowan. Mrs. Cowan became the health careers' sponsor after Mrs. Paula Gerald left earlier in the year. ti, Urgently discussing pressing topics about helping needy, helpless animals, two of Ally's three members, Senior Ann Lutrell and Iordon Ronn attend a meeting.

The club did find time though to take a few field trips to various medical centers. I enjoyed participating in the club, it gives you insight into the medical field, concluded Vice presi- dent Cathy Ortloff. by Amy Bean Dogs and other animals were the object of Ally's affections.

Photo by Taylor Stout. Young Life teaches Christian lif Friendship, concern and a lot of love were offered to sophomores, juniors and seniors through Young Life, a nationwide Christian organization. Young Life club was held every Monday night during the school year at Memorial Forest Swim Club. Led by Randy Youngling and Nan- cy Henderson, students sang and per- formed skits. Randy usually closed a club meeting with a short explanation of a part of Iesus Christ's life. Randy usually talked about something that happened in his own life and then at the end related it to the life of Iesus Christ and how He would have dealt with the situation, said Senior Dede Rollins. Campaigners, which is a more in- depth study group, met every Wednesday at a member's house. This group concentrated on Bible study and allowed students to grow closer through their walk with the Lord. Campaigners strengthens my faith, and it brings me closer to my friends because of our common Christian bond, said Senior Lydia Perez. Youngling and his wife Tanya led the senior guys and girls, with Linda Wooten and Richard Richarz helping Campaigner meetings are a place where friends can discuss religious aspects and learn more about each other.
