Young people across the nation are showing an increasing interest in the teaching profession, and Warren FTA members reflect this trend. Today's students are concerned with the education problems of today and the youth of tomorrow. In October the club selected Susan Sincox, Janice McKee, Linda Heid, and Sandra Jane McLain to attend an FTA Workshop at Shimer College. The girls won a gavel for representing a chapter with such a large percentage of active boy members. The Frank L. and Helen S. Burns County FTA Club held its fall meeting at the Warren Community House on October 21. County President Janice McKee presided. Miss Walkley gave a delightful talk on English folk songs. Paul S. Conklin, Superintendent of Winnebago County Schools gave an in- spiring speech, I Would Teach Again. A student teaching day was held with FTA members teaching high school and grade school classes of their choice. The teachers did a great deal of preparing for their day at the head of the class. They realized the work required by the teaching profession. 29

The Student Council is a means of communication between the student body and the directing body of the school. It is the voice of the people in Warren High. Its members, three from each class, represent the views of each age group. The excellent series of assembly programs presented this year were chosen by the Student Council. They are a broadening addition to the education of tomor- row’s citizens. This year a very good play was given by the University of Wis- consin Players and a graduate student spoke on the U. S. missile program. Other interesting and varied programs were presented. The Student Council assumes the responsibility for many school social events. The Homecoming parade with floats, bands, and prizes; the dance with king, queen, and court; and the concession at the game were all projects of the Stu- dent Council. Another project was the Christmas program with music, Santa Claus, and refreshments. This year a youth center, the Volcano Club, was started in the Community House by the Mother's Study Club and the Lion's Club. A youth board made up of two members from each class was organized to bring together the sponsors and the young people. The board consists of: Linda Heid--President, Ronald Thomas-- Vice President, Brenda Rummell--Secretary-T reasurer, Roger Eckerman, Anne Conyne, Jim Graham, Pat Bondele, and Ronald Hawes. Membership of $1.00 a year offers a variety of facilities including dancing, ping pong, shuffle board, checkers, cards, chess, and a place to congregate every Saturday night. It is a fine club, and the students of Warren High are grateful to those who made it possible. 28
