Age Of The Working Woman Home Economics Related Occupa- tions QHEROJ is not just a class but also a club. There are two classes consisting of first and second year HERO members. The club consists only of girls, but there is no reason why guys cannot join. Perhaps in a few years this can change. HERO was active in such things as monthly breakfast meetings, arts and crafts, and retail displays. They took time off from school and their jobs to take a small trip to Dallas. While there they observed expensive displays at Neiman Mar- cus and North Park Mall. mg Christi Lassiter and Valda Sudduth show their talents when the classes were requirec' to do arts and crafts.

DECA Is ore Than lust A Job DECA, fDistributive Education Clubs of Americaj is an organiza- tion that teaches marketing, mer- chandising and responsibility. All members must be in Distributive Education which requires them to have a job. The club has had several pro- jects, which include the adoption of a muscular dystrophy child and a grandma who has no close living relatives. Both were invited to all of the chapter activities. DECA attended several confer- ences held in different places. At the conferences, members compet- ed in various written and competi- tive events. They competed against members from across the state and nation. The organization taught its members to be leaders and follow- ers. DECA gave them an opportu- nity for state and national recogni- tion. 5 1 I 3 3 As part of his DECA learning experience, Jeff Carmichael works at C 8: H Auto. Clubs!Academics

The students who were active in Home Ec. did such things as: cooking, hooking rugs and learning about families. But, of course, we couldn't stay to far from the old-traditions. The ju- nior classes and the Independent Living classes still cooked but their learning was centered around pre- paring them for their futures. For instance, the seniors experienced what it is like to get married and all the expenses that accompany this fmany of them discovered that if they got married now they would probaly starvej. The goal of the Home Economics teachers was to prepare us for our future. We learned about good nu- trition, taking care of our house, the juniors helped preschool and the seniors learned about taking care of their future families. Per- haps we didn't learn all there was to know but the Horne Economics classes have certainly helped in preparing us. 1 S' , .
