Arguments vs. apathy With the lack of student cooperation and attention. Student Council meetings again proved to be more argumentative than productive. Such things as whether a teacher appreciation day should be held turned into major issues. Small wordings in the constitution under revision were argued over needlessly. Another problem which arose was the finding of Student Council sponsors. Mrs. Dee Godesiabois resigned in December, leaving the Council sponsorless until Principal Gordon Rudel finally took the position. The Council did decide to hold meetings every Tuesday of each week during a different class hour. They finally finished revising the constitution. which had been in process for a number of years. Quite a few dances were held, including homecoming and the Christman Morp. And the teacher appreciation day was finally voted on favorably. Promotion of the day was so poor, however, that most teachers had no idea why there were flowers in their boxes. As the year rolled on. the weekly meetings became scarce, finally dwindling to almost nothing during the fourth quarter. TRYING TO COPE.

CHEERS. Marathon dancers Brad Smith and Sherry Bonno toast the photographer. Easy does it Activities — some students can't get enough of them, while others go out of their way to avoid them. Whatever a student was into, it was probably to be found. Activities ranged from standing on stage to just standing in the smoking area. Clubs and organizations were so numerous that sponsors had trouble finding an open spot on the calendar. With golf, gymnastics, and swimming reinstated, and the newly-established baseball team in full swing, some students went from season to season without a break. There were some clubs, however, which didn't do anything, with rumors circulating that ‘‘it's just a way to get a seat on Student Council!” Sometimes students were so busy that one almost expected to see sleeping bags from the dance marathon as permanent fixtures in the student center. On the other hand, a handful of students were constantly bored with anything relating to school, and wouldn't have found happiness in any activity even if they had tried. 4 Activities division page
