Top Jobs Work Study Group Entertains Employers Raising money to show apprecia- tion to local employers was one of the key activities for several of the business-oriented clubs this year. For fund-raising, COE members sold ads for a supplement in the Southwest Times Record in February. They also joined up with FBLA members to sell fruit in December. A banquet for COE employers was held in May. MDE members sold candybars to raise money for their employer and employee brunch and to go to Little Flock for the state conference. VICA members also sold candy in order to raise money for their employer brunch and to enter the VICA state Skill Olympics on March 30 and 31. FBLA members sold 500 cases of citrus fruit and two-year planners as their fund raising projects. During Halloween, they took baskets and cans of candy to children in the hospitals. f-ww' Games can be fun as Mrs. Sue Devero, and Seniors Jimmy Carssia, Derrel Parker, and Sean Hickman play the game Millionair.

Do You Compute? W Computer Classes Expand at Southside S outhside Programmers Associa- tion was added this year to the list of clubs. lt is a computer club which offers such things as a base for com- puter program for members, an ex- change for information and ideas, and instruction for newcomers with the usage of computers. The founding of this organiztion reflected the changes taking place in the Southside classrooms as more and more teachers and students become involved both in school, at work, and in the home. The officers were President Darrell Hindmarsh, Vice President Jeff Rayfield, Secretary Randy Kitchens, and Treasurer Nick James. Sponsor of the club, Mr. Eugene Morris, math instructor, I think it is good for, students to learn about pro- gramming and computers, because you will probably need it later on.
