Senate Links School Spirit Sponsoring many activities, the Student Senate proved to be a very successful organization. The Senate sponsored soc hops after hometown football games and after some basketball games. Senators sold parking stickers and links to the spirit chain, and held a Halloween car- nival for children, and chose mystery people for the last pep rally. Along with these activities, the Student Senate mem- bers devoted their time and energy to a canned food drive for some needy families at Christmas. The members col- lected money from students for the McMilIer family, whose home was destroyed by fire. The Student Senate also presented a silver serving tray to Mrs. Con Devers, and donated money for the Con Devers Scholarship Fund, to be used by a IT student wishing to attend Stephen F. Austin University. A memorial plaque was placed in the library in honor of Mr. Devers. Members of the Senate attended the district student council meeting at the Sheraton Inn, and also sponsored Brotherhood Week. The Senate was under the direction of Mr. Leroy Belcher, but was managed mainly by a capable slate of officers including Charles Moon, president, Anthony Williams, vice presi- dent, Carla Phillips, secretary, Ingrid Sledge, chaplain, Cathy Beall, treasurer, Beverly White, historian, and Dewey Lang,parliamentarian. 1 Senior Paul Fisher is disc yockey at a Senate sponsored soc hop 2 Senate president Charlie Moon presides over a meetm while secretary Belcher listens 3 lunlor Demarcus Baxter assisted by Charlie and Carla breaks the yunior spirit chain 4 Bobby Smlthson junior senator has a good laugh at something Phil Hicks doesnt find amusing .gs-.5 . . g .
