Many students came to the December 18 Christmas dance, which was sponsored by Student Government. Student Government Projects Benefit School, Community Creating more involvement within the stu- dent body and promoting the general welfare of the school were the main objectives of the 1970-71 Student Government. Fashioned sim- ilar to that of the United States government in regard to structure and voting procedures, it included the Executive board, Senate, House, and active and standing committees. Several notable projects were successfully executed by Student Government members and other interested students. Through the Hun- ger Hike and the Bread Sale, over $1,000 was contributed to the Christian Rural Overseas Program and to the March of Dimes. The sale of Booster Club memberships and Pancake Day tickets provided money used to purchase drapes for the Student Center. A Christmas dance and a Stomp-In were also held for the students. A special Student Government office was occupied by the Senate during homeroom each day and was used for various Student Govern- ment activities. Special recognition goes to Mr. Murphy, sponsor of the entire organization. Council Excels With New Ideas The main purpose of the Inter-City Student Council was to help bring the high schools of Des Moines and the outlying areas closer to- gether in working to achieve common goals. Much emphasis was placed on community serv- ice and involvement. The annual All-City Dance was held March 12, with all the proceeds going to help finance the breakfast program formerly located at Gateway Opportunity Center. Through the expanded Inter-City newspaper, Cheap Thrills, students all over the area were brought in closer contact with news of the council, as well as news of other schools. Another addition to the council was the pro- motion of a monthly television program from Look At Us ! televised on WHO-TV. With the help of committee members from several high schools, the program attempted to reveal to the community the products of student involve- ment. The nine members of the Inter-City Student Council try to squeeze into a telephone booth. Kneeling:, from left, are Tony Lee and Alan Bernard. Standing: (from left) are Cathi ( hannell.
