The organ- ization aims to be of school and community service whenever it can. This year the F. F, A. purchased four registered Gilts, two Yorkshire and two Chester White, for its swine chain. This year they raised two groups of broilers as class projects. One group was used for their Parent and Son Banquet. The F. F. A. and F. H. A. sponsored the annual school Fair. As a group project they built two dugouts on the athletic field.
