Meeting at noon today was a familiar weekly reminder to the ten members of the Student Council. The activity program was launched with a most suc- cessful opening dance, Anchors Aweighf, Sailors, ships, and anchors carried out the nautical decor to perfection. The Council- managed pre-Lenten Mission Mixer broke all previous records with a grand total of S1550 netted in just two hours of carnival fun. At long last the Council realized a project dreamed of for many years - a second stairway on Nineteenth Avenue to save precious moments for hurrying Mercy students. Many interesting assemblies were sponsored by the Student Coun- cil, but most important was their constant aim to unite students and faculty in the bonds of that vibrant Mercy spirit which inspires all school activities. 82 fi 7-slr' 'S 0 T7 'l ' .41 'xc ,a'6 '
