OEA-FHA Concentrate on Service Some organizations stem directly from a particular course, and, many times, club activities are actually a part of the class. Two such organizations were the Future Homemaker America and Office Education Association. Both club's members were in Home Economics and VOE, and many club activities were related to course content. OEA, one of the most active clubs on campus, was constantly involved in some type of activity. lf they were not supporting other organizations by giving them little surprises like goodie bags or flowers, they were going on field trips to business like Tax Logic and the Dallas Teacher's Credit Union to find out how business actually works. Involvement was not limited to school activities. Their float took 1st place in the Christmas parade and they walked 10 miles in a Walkathon to support Special Olympics. To make money to support their activities and trip to the State Convention, the group sold mums for Homecoming and candy for Valentines Day. Recognition for all came in the form of placing high in both the Area and State Contests. FHA was another group that spent their time and efforts in supporting the school activities. To boost morale during the Allen game, the club made blue cookies and gave them to students and players during lunch. Teachers were honored at a special breakfast cooked and served by members. Other activities related to the Area and state level of FHA. Members attended conventions and Lori Lemons served as the Area 5 Treasurer.

I Thespian Randy Martin and Apprentice Jeff Prichard entertained by do- the skit Who's on First. Patron of the Arts Although Picasso and Shakespeare were both artists, Picasso used a brush and Shakespeare used the stage. Many do not consider drama and the theatre a form of art. The drama students in Miss Kemplin's class could have proven that last statement wrong by exhibiting their learned art of expression and movement. In order for others to see the dramatic aspects of art, productions such as Wiley and the Hairy Man, The Christmas Tea, Brigadoon, and The Glass Menagerie were performed. Thespians Brooke Coleman and Sandra Crawford par- ticipated in a six-week Scarborough Faire, a Renaissance Festival in Waxahachie. And, for the first time, the U.I.L. One-Act play became a state finalist. Of course, the art club had an easier time displaying their talent in art. Julie Mueller, a four-year advanced art student, won S100 in prize money for her design in the Wylie Logo Contest. As a new choice in art, a photography class was added as a one-semester course. Basic photography and developing was taught in the new darkroom, which used to be Mrs. Stripling's closet. 4 Working at their own pace, Tenna Rogers and Julie Mueller macramed and weaved in the advanced art class.
