T' l THE TROJAN STAFF ln May of l956 the juniors elected Gloria Girvan and Othel Johnson to be editors of the yearbook for '57, Cliff Schroeder received the demanding position of business manager. Cliff later proved to be indispensable during the magazine sales campaign and was often seen d-oing more than his duty, going the rounds with our advertisers, Jim Howard and Grant Langle, Much credit is due to our conscientious layout editors, Audrey Cowlham, Na-ncy Neville, and Arlene Purdy. The appearance of each page is the result of their patient work. Jean Hanson, Myrna Lange, and Marilyn Sommers handled efficiently the job of typing copy for the printer. Helen Kessler and Dwayne Wingert lined up classes for Mr. Buntrock's busy camera and Dwayne took many fine pictures at special events. Judy Ogden, Willard Johnson, and Ronald Oxendale put their heads together and came up with some new ideas for the annual Sales Carnival. All this could not have been accomplished without the invaluable aid of Miss Bruce, to whom we are s-o grate- ful for expert advice and assistance. We have striven to make this i957 Trojan the best ever, and we hope you will think our time was well spent.

FUTURE FARMERS OF AMERICA The Future Farmers of America is an integral part of the vocational agriculture course. It is an intra-circular activity having its origin and root in a different part of the school curriculum. It is based on the following motto: Learning to do, doing to learn, learning to live and living to serve. No national student organization enjoys greater freedom of self-government under adult counsel and guidance than the F. F. A. The foundation upon which the F. F. A. organization is built includes leadership and character develop- ment, sportsmanship, improved agriculture, organized recreation, citizenship and patriotism. The aims and purposes of the Future Farmers are to develop competent rural and agricultural leadership, to strengthen the confidence of farm boys and young men in themselves and their work, and to create more interest in the intelligent choice of a farming occupation. A further aim and purpose is the development of individual farming programs and establishment in farming. These encourage members to improve the farm home and its surroundings and to participate of agriculture. in worthy undertakings for the improvement i956-i957 are: President, Merle Lansink, Secretary, Herbie Turin, Treasurer, Richard and Sentinel, Darrell Herrig.
