W ' st, an W:-15'- ' i. or 'S ai, F 3 . .,, ,. New projects made lub more exciting New and different activities made the year exciting for Future Home- makers of America lFHAl and Viet- nemese Club members, One new FHA project involved ll high school students from Ja- pan. While these students visited Stockton for three days, they stayed with the families of eight FHA members and attended Tokay class- es. FHA hoasted a luncheon for the visitors and, in return, the Japanese hosted a dinner for their host famil- ies, some teachers, and members of the board of trustees. The Japanese were only in the country for one week, so Tokay was proud to be the only school that they visited. For the Vietnamese Club, every- thing was new and different, since the club was founded in April 1987. The club was an instrument to keep the Vietnamese culture alive. Ac- cording to Vietnamese Club mem- bers. They wanted to teach Vietna- mese students to be proud of their heritage. To help the club members keep that heritage, the club planned to publish a Vietmanese magazine. The magazine was planned and written by students in Vietnamese, so that students would not forget how to write or to read the lan- guage. Fundraisers, and holiday parties were also on schedule. Most of the money from the fundraisers went toward Magazine production costs, but a picnic at the end of the year also took some fundraising. The picnic was staged for any Vietna- mese, and was an invitation to anyone to come and join the club. by Jill Stapleton photos by Sally Limbaugh 4.

Ar anging p iorities 'T ' essen parti ipa ion Juggling priorities, Thespians, an international honors society, decid- ed to take a step back from the spotlight. Basically they set aside all The- spian activities to promote the Sov- iet tour, said Adviser Larry Linda. They had to choose which to put more energy into, the Thespian group or the Soviet tour. According to Mr. Linda, the answer was obvi- ous. Though not a real active organi- zation, students were allowed to join this honorary society for scholarship eligibility and free publications, ac- cording to Mr. Linda. According to Christina Wall, se- cretary-treasurer, the membership fee was 512.50 and each member receives a year subscription to Dra- matics Magazine. To join, one must have had IO points, l0 hours of acting is equivalent to one point. Officers were: Darrin Martin, pres- identg Eric Smith, vice president, and Christina Wall, secretary- treasurer. At our school, we are not really involved fwith Thespianslf' said Smith, The reason that I joined Thespians was to show people that l'm dedicated to the theatre and that l'm notjust fooling around. Though Thespians have only had one meeting, members have been meeting together regularly prepar- ing forthe Soviet trip. by Sheryl Tankersley photos by Matthew Silber 'U 1 -O . -L I 1 Q . 1. .I ' lx ,' Y t If s - f .
