The DE program used the cooperative method , an organized sequence of on the job learning experiences related to each student's occupational interest which is correlated with classroom instruction. The program has two spon- sors this year, Mrs. Vicki Wilson, the new head sponsor, and Mrs. Jan Pelland, Co-sponsor for the program. The students had many fund raisers such as selling Trojan key chains, calendars, Tupperware and working the concession stands at our home football games. The money earned from these was used for the State Conference in Tucson where all DECA groups competed in different events for 3 days and money was also used for the end of the year employer-employee banquet. The DECA class also planned their yearly Christ- mas party at the Camlu Retirement Home, but unfortunately a fire broke out the night before causing the event to be cancelled. However repre- sentatives of the group took the favors and other Christmas goodies a few days later to the home. Also under the DECA heading is the Trojan Cor- ner where students are able to work in our school store gaining the experience they need for a future job while earning a school credit. The DECA mar- keting class, also under this heading, is for Juniors wishing to participate in DE their Senior year.

TIE Students attend fall convention Staff members from the TBOJAN TIMES attended an AIPA Convention in Chandler on Oct. 18, 1980. Mrs. Phyllis Stantield, Newspaper and Yearbook Advisor, taught a new adviser seminar. Mrs. Stanfield is the treasurer and membership chairman of the State High School Press Association. At the convention students were able to choose from a variety of classes. One class I thought was interesting was 'Writing a Sports Feature'. The sports editor for the Mesa Trib- une was the teacher. He showed us how to get inside information on sports stories, said Fred Lanier, sports reporter for the TBOJAN TIMES. He said the best way to get a good sports, feature story is by tak- ing the athlete's side and talking with him privately. gm Jim Zawicki, sports reporter, and Mark Howard, Sports Edi- tor, plan the sports page for the next issue. Trojan Times changes format This year the TBOJAN TIMES took on a new for- mat. lt went from a 5 column by 14 paper to a 3 column by 13 news and a 2 column by 13 fea- ture and editorial section. Because they made the change, they moved from a news layout to a modified magazine format. The magazine format is the new trend in high school newspapers. W N. 1x5 's-.
