if Ewa' Two S e nior staff members, Kaye and Glenda. The Viking Log staffconsists of members of the shorthand and book- keeping classes. The Juniors issue their first edition around Christmas time. At this time the Seniors get a rest until May when they edit their last paper in the form of class history, prophecy and etc. The experience of writing and stenciling articles is of great value to those who enter the business field in later life. Thus the school pa- per has a twofold purpose. It keeps the student body informed on all activities and prepares the staff for journalism. It is a great responsibility for the editors and principal staff mem- bers, but they are rewarded for their work with a feeling of accom- plishment. The Senior editor was Betty Pierce, assisted by Glenda Wickgthe Art editor was Kay Nelson. Typists and Reporters were Car- olyn Eggen, Donna Finch, Gloria Prussia, Carol Gorze and Ellen Lun- don with Robert Miller doing the mimeographing. M arilyn Elling- worth, assisted by Gayle Hennen, was the Junior editor for the 1956- '57 school year. Janice Marsten very ably served as Art editor and Veldonna Moe, Beverly Berg, Janice Benesh, Bonnie Sargeant, Pauline Riepe, Harriet Gilbertson and Darlene Westcott did the reporting and typing. Ronnie Ness supplied the sports news as well as doing the mimeographing. Mr. Sitta is to be commended on his efficient staffs who, we all feel, have done a really good job and have givenus a school paper we can be proud of! iking Log , , , 4 it Our mimeographer, Bo ROW I, Qleft to rigntl: Carol Gone, Gloria Prussia, Kaye Nelson, Marilyn Ellialgworth, Pauline Rieppge, Janice Benesh, Janice Marsten, Har riet Gilbertson, Gail Hennen, Bonnie Sargent, Ronnie Ness.

fqfti The twelve members of the Student Council, elected by their class- mates in each grade, held their first meeting on September 14, 1956. Jack Kitchell was elected president through anall-school election and Wayne Hasz and Marianne Murphy were chosen vice-president and sec- retary-treasurer, respectively, by their fellow Student Council mem- bers. We began Homecoming preparations immediately and we sold the football badges to the student body. A new black velveteen robe was made and paid for by the student council for the Homecoming Queen and the old crown was recovered. Every coxmcil member worked hard to make the occasion the success it was. On Wednesday, October 31, ten of us attended the Student Council Convention for the Western Division at the Moorhead State Coll e ge campus. After that, we found ourselves in the midst of book-cover selling, a Sadie Hawkins party on November 16, the sending of 510.00 to CARE for Hungarianrefugees and a Christmas assembly program and decorations. During the holiday season, we co-sponsored a Snowball with the Drum and Bugle Corps, and later sponsored a party after a basketball game with Gary. We met twice with the Crookston Student Council to plan the Stu- dent Council Convention for next year. All in all, we spent a busy, educational, and we feel, very successful year.
