Scholarships offered by clubs, businesses, colleges, and international organizations showed community interest in the advancement of education. The Americans Abroad division of AFS gave two Oakies the opportunity to study in foreign lands. Richard Reed was the first student from this area to be a guaranteed year finalist. This rating meant that Richard would spend a full year living with a family in another country. Cheri Wilson achieved the status of finalist in the summer program. The Kansas City Star set an example of the many scholarships offered by individual businesses. Melody Martin and Karen Gercken as recipients of this scholarship received twenty-four hundred dollars to the college of their choice. School clubs strove to aid deserving members of their organizations by presentation of monetary gifts. Language clubs, Tri-M, and Drama Club all worked hard to earn money for these scholarships. xg 2, Sfffrmr , .AMERICAN YUM AQ? f' Recipients of the Kansas City Star scholarship, Karen Gerc- ken and Melody Martin, examine their benefactors publication. , 4' k ., .. , I UVM, , swg.,,,x4Q:Q,,- ,S 3 is ' qs f O yy. f 54 Z Q WUWC t W, 7 'diff' f f f W , f 7' f it s .
