Lettermen Organize, Begin New Activities Lettermen Bob Rickard, and Larry Rettenmund, right, relax after three hectic lunch periods of selling malts to the student body. The Northwestern Wildcat Lettermen ' s Club made valuable contributions to school activities during the year. The Lettermen turned out in mass numbers to usher home basketball games and check the coats of those attending the games. Mr. James Fowler was successful in orga- nizing and channeling the enthusiasm of the athletes. In March the club sponsored a basket- ball game between the Men ' s faculty and the members of the Lettermen ' s Club. Also involved in play were the Varsity Cheerleaders vs the Women ' s faculty. At halftime a wrestling match and a jazz band provided humorous entertainment. Mr. James Fowler is the director of the Letter- men ' s Club.

Chris Breck, pursuing a career in elementary education, finds valuable experience in the Cadet Teacher Program. By the expressions on the children ' s faces the conclusion can be drawn that learning is fun. The Future Wildcats Seek Helpful Careers. Cadet Teachers can be helpful by giving indi- vidual attention to their students, says Jackie Jenkins who is always willing to help. Two active groups thinking about their future careers are the Future Medics Club and the Cadet Teachers. The Future Meds meet about once every two weeks with their sponsor Mr. Foxworth. Their of- ficers Lisa Slosar, President; Kathy Shippritt, Vice President; Ruth Whiteman, Secretary; and Val Smith, Treasurer; led the group in their annual Christmas project. The Cadet Teachers under the direction of Mrs. Nabring assist teachers in elementary and junior high classrooms. Working directly with the students gives the cadets a chance to see if they want to major in edu- cation in college. 129
