STUDENT COUNCIL Questions. . . How can the parking problem be erased?. . . What should be included in the new curriculum?. . . Who deserves the Cnristmas plaque?. . . Student Council. . .some answers. President Mike Weiss led many ’68- ' 69 Student Council meetings to decide for the student body the solutions to a num- ber of important issues. With the aid of the Valparaiso police, the late Mayor Will, and a mound of bumper stickers, the Student Council improved the student parking problem that has been plaguing Park Avenue for years. The Council then directed its aid to the VHS adminis- tration. By visiting new schools in the surrounding area, the Council was able to draw up a list of subjects desired in the new school curriculum. In December a Council-sponsored Christmas Hall Decoration Contest sought to involve all three classes in the Christmas spirit. This year the sophomores were awarded the traveling plaque for their cozy por- trayal of “An Old-Fashioned Christmas.” In the spring a computer played match- maker to couples attending the Computer Dance — also Council-motivated. In many ways the Student Council mem- bers helped make the year more enjoy- able for the students who elected them. do solemnly swear that will strive for better student government and improvement of my school Mike Weiss is sworn in by Mr Allmon as VHS Student Council President 20 Student Council officers and sponsors were Jim Looman, vice president, fan Stephan, secretary, Mrs Heckman, sponsor, Mike Weiss, president.

PEP CLUB Hallways— bannered green and white. . .crepe- papered goalposts, flashy hoops. . .bleachers — packed to capacity. . . whirls of confetti and mass hysteria. . . “We’re so proud of our team !” Pep Club members showed themselves proud of their team in countless ways. During football season, senior Pep Club members executed a unique gimmick in preparation for each game. At the scrim- mage before the Hobart game, for in- stance, senior girls deposited in the locker room a carton of mammoth-size sugar cookies — each splashed with a V ' iking number in green sugar. The Pep Club filled the bleachers at home foot- ball games and sent as many as four shouting buses to away games. Basketball was also patronized with enthusiasm. Each home game found bleachers packed with girls in traditional white blouses and beanies and guys in white shirts and green ties. Announcing special games were convocations featuring special per- formances, such as a free-throw contest between varsity and faculty. During the year, bake sales and paper drives gathered funds needed for paint and crepe-paper. tootball meditation ?
