America’s Gold “The time is now” was a slogan from the last political campaign, but it is easily applied to the purposes of the Future Business Leaders of America, and the Industrial Arts Club. These organizations were designed to help their members use the present in order to play for a successful future. In the clubs, students found an extension of their classroom activities and a means of further exploring possible career fields. Mrs. Debbie Strole sponsored the FFA as a part of her agriculture classes. Mr. Leroy Griffin ' s shop classes could make use of their activity periods by joining the Industrial Arts Club. The members of the various business classes came together to form the FBLA under the direction of Mrs. Barbara Darden, Mrs. Florence Reynolds, and Miss Gail Valentine. To complete the group of career-oriented clubs were the members of the FHA, which was sponsored by Mrs. Connie Taylor as a part of the home economics family living classes. 26 SPORTS CLUBS i|

Latin and Learning From Ceaser to soothsayers, the Latin Club had a busy year. Sponsored by Ms. Marie Ikenberry, it gave students an opportunity to extend their classroom work to an added dimension during activity period. In the spring the club took part in the city-wide foreign language fair by running a soothsayer tent and telling everyone’s fortunes. The National Honor Society helped to improve fortunes by offering students free tutoring before exams. With the aid of sponsors Ms. Anna Koontz and Mrs. Fran Alwood. members offered to help other students prepare for mid-terms and finals. Mrs. Alwood also offered her advice to the newly-formed Careers Club, which unlike the Honor Society, met during activity period. They explored the outlook and possibilities for many occupations. Meanwhile, the stage provided a source of preoccupation for the Thespian Club. Members investigated all aspects of the field from voice projection to make-up techniques to actually appearing before the footlights. Murder Near the LaRue Morge was presented in early January.
