Hospital tour, speakers lure Health Careers Be it hospital tour or noontime speaker, Health Careers members explored future medical vocations. Members shared their Christmas vacation with patients in the geriatrics ward at the County General Hospital.

Specialists showed exhibits and introduced opportunities in health careers at the traditional February event.

l x i .nn ff Lettermen sell cushions to buy football films Tiger athletes are out to improve on the football films. The Lettermen's club sold black-Tiger emblem seat cush- ions to Tiger supporters so as to purchase full length game films of all non-league, league, and C.l.F. football con- tests. Under supervision of lettermen President Cliff Hen- derson, the club sponsored an after basketball game dance, featuring the Soul Searchers. This year the Letter- men took over the Christmas signs which are placed on downtown street corners to help promote the Christmas spirit throughout the community. Anxious to have one of the richest clubs on campus the lettermen had many fund raising activities this year. Backwards slave day was a big hit as the boys bought girls as their slaves for a day. The dance and concessions at the basketball games were also big money raisers for the annual lettermen's barbecue at Cuesta Park. A new idea was introduced with the awarding of the black and gold lettermen sweaters to the most active lettermen throughout the year. The requirements for Letterman membership are earn- ing a varsity letter in a maior or minor sport or by earning a letter as a manager.

'Tips for Teachers'- Dr. Watson's address Dr. William Watson, county superintendent of schools, addressed members of Future Teachers of America, stress- ing the importance of qualified instructors in our society. Dr. Watson emphasized the need tor teachers in specialized fields such as mental retardation and speech defects. He also cautioned members on how to act during iob interviews and handed out sample appli- cations for members to fill out. A deeper understanding of how to bring out the qualities of each individual child was sought by FTA members as they participated in the bi-annual teacher's observations at city schools. By actually working with the children, members gained first hand experience of what it is like to be a teacher. After the observations, several members received decorated thank you notes from the elementary school children. , FUTURE TEACHERS OF AMERICA-FRONT ROW, Elena ROPP, spring program, Jean Thoma, Nancy Belcher, fall president, Brenda Nordquist, tall secretary.
