Partners in Christ promote serious goals Meeting twice each month, members of Partners in Christ set out to achieve the serious goals which had been set in 1967 when the club was first organized at Southside High. To promote Christian char- acter and leadership, to reach the unsaved for Christ, and to have a deeper understanding of the Bible's message were the basic purposes of the group. Guitar music by Gary Robertson and Jim Skinner brightens up the morning for members of Partners in Christ before one of their meetings. 1 30 Partners in Christ Interested members of Partners in Christ listen to Reverend Keith Simmons of V Cavanaugh Missionary Baptist Church during a February meeting. Helping to achieve these high goals, members invited local ministers and religious leaders to speak, at club meetings. ln addi- tion, members explored possibil- ities of having another city-wide crusade sometime in the future. Not all was work for Partners in Christ, however. At several early morning sessions, students gathered to sing folk songs and play guitars. PARTNERS IN CHRIST: Bottom Row:-Thomas, L.

To create better library serv- ice, to popularize reading among students, and to interest the well qualified in librarianship as a career, were the three main goals of the Library Club this year. The club, sponsored by lVlrs. Dora Sullivan, planned its activi- ties around service to the library. The members achieved this by processing and shelving books in their proper order, thereby relieving some of the jobs in- volved in library work from the professional staff. Shelving books in their proper places was one of the main activities for Library Club members Marilyn Robson, Stacy Loux, and Teresa Bullington. Library Club 129

Each morning during home- room periods, representatives collected donations which even- tually totaled 350. The money went to support the community Red Cross programs and to pur- chase the Red Cross Journal for the club members. The fund drive was part of the purpose of the Red Cross. The club also promoted the activ- ities of the local Red Cross. They informed the student body on programs involving candy stripers, swimming, individual safety, and first aid. Under the direction of lVlrs. Elizabeth lVlcBride, sponsor, the Red Cross also sponsored a tooth- paste and toothbrush drive.
