Through the purchase of two life memberships in the California Congress of Parents and Teachers, money is made available for students wishing to advance their education. The group has given assistance to the Denta ' Clinic, Tichenor Clinic, and the Cancer Drive. Funds for these activities have been raised through a dessert card party, fall fashion show, and a rummage sale. In the year ' s theme, Our Golden Op- portunity, membership surged over the eleven hundred mark. p.t.a. prospers iiiiclor oltlen oppiirtuiiiiies ilieiiie 22

Each senior was given an interview with an outstanding leader in the vocational field of the student ' s special interest. Every student gave an oral report to his class, which was followed by questions and discussion. From these discussions the classes received first-hand information about other vocational interests besides their own. Classes profited by learn- ing the actual requirements, conditions, and rewards of the various occupations. This stimulating program was organized through the untiring efforts of Carl G. Lindgren and John C. Glover, Economic Problems teachers. itirs. poUpr, jfisisi p.l.a. greats ft U d at revi piUni 2.1
