Starting Tradition STUDENT COUNCIL There are those who say money isn't everything, but you couldn't prove it by the Preshman and Sophomore Student Councils. Their year began, highlighted and ended with fund raising quests for the almighty dollar. Both groups worked jointly to sponsor the council banquet, but the sophomores put most of their pennies aside for financing next year's Junior-Scnoir From. According to sophomore Allison Porter, their projects got a good reception. Ice Cream sandwiches proved to be something people wanted to buy. The Christmas candy-grams met with equal success. Preshman, Chris Ferguson and sophomores. Anna Tarver and Stuart Morstead were among the students buying the chocolate Santa Clauses to send greetings to their loved ones. Prcshmen senators preferred using physical labor to earn their dollars. Window washing and raking autumn leaves brought in the cash and, according to freshman, Angie Sizemore, were fun at the same time.” The ninth grade group must have had some drawing card because in their first month they won the Outstanding Council Award for good meeting attendance and hard work. Everyone attended the meetings nearly every week. reported Shea Bohannon, secretary. While not completely free of expenses. these Student Councils have made a dent in covering the cost of prom their junior year and Homecoming their senior year. Although there was more work ahead, they had made a good start. —CHOZEN Being the new kids on the block we’ve mainly concentrated on building our image as a super class. We've had a lot of fundraisers this year and our goal is to end our freshman year with $1000. Hopefully next year will be as fun as this was —CHRIS MOFFETT 70 — SCA
