Nwrwq lf'-f ,, fs Membership slides downhill for skiers Although this season's conditions were some of the best ever for skiing, the Ski Club still found it difficult to boost club membership. Unlike last year, when the skiing excursions were almost all run by the Stockton-based Mogul Masters Ski Club, this year's club avoided any affiliation by planning their own ac- tivities and fundraisers. Del Bechthold, first quar- ter president, Elizabeth Hohe, newly instated presidentg Frankie Salmeri, vice president, and Chris Young, secretary-treasurer were somewhat disappointed with this year's lower mem- bership of 70 paid members, a sore comparison to last year's total of 160. However, with the help of Adviser Joe Kinkade, the group was able to organize several ski trips, including a Bear Valley overnighter and a Squaw Valley trip attended during the February four-day weekend. The group's treasury was left dry by the failure of their Valentine's Dance featuring The Fall of Christianity, a punk rock group, which did little to spark the enthusiasm of most students. In spite of membership lulls and treasury problems, officers were optimistic about organizing spring water- skiing trips.

'Aggies' produce eagerness, money Raising money was the main goal set by the Future Farmers of America. Mem- bers of the club needed the funds to send representatives to the regional, state, and national FFA conventions. They did this by selling grapes at the Grape Festival, almonds, and co-sponsoring donkey basketball. They also entered a float in the Victory Week Parade and earned fourth place. The FFA members led horses around during the Field and Fair Day to raise money for the Lodi Community Center and planned for the second semester was an Aggie auction with Lodi High in which students would be sold to do work. Discussions were being made to hold a steak and oyster feed. Judging teams were also being decided upon. The judging teams would be in six divisions: livestock, record keeping, farming, ornamen- tal horticulture, meat, and agricultural mechanics. To be awarded at the end of the year were 81,200 worth of scholarships. Officers were Jim Martin, president, Darla Traver, vice president, Donn Singleton, secretary: John Vanni, John Norman, treasurer, Anthony Vanni, representative, and Kevin Spraggins, sentinel. l. FFA officers are Kevin Spraggins, Tom Norman, Donn Singleton, Jim Martin, Darla Traver, and Tony Vanni. 2. Parading during Victory Week Parade is FFA's fourth place float.
