Senate Activities Ranged From Pop Concert to Easily the most popular of Senate projects was the Pop Concert. The concert was a three-way project with Franklin and Bentley I-ligh Schools. The many problems associated with a smoothly run program were divided among the three, and Stevenson, because of its central location and large gym, was chosen as the site for the different groups' performances. The enthusiasm of the crowd for the dif- ferent groups was apparent even before the start of the concert: a restraining gate gave way before the pressure of excited fans. After m 'the showfa very appreciative crowd-voiced their approval of the groups, performances. Whether the concert was referred to as the Rational's ' Coneert, the HappeningsPConcert,.ofr just the plain One of the best received groups was the Rationals with its bizarre appearance. Committee work kept Senators busy even when the general meetings were over. Senate activities covered such a wide range of activities that the concentrated efforts of several members were needed to deal with them effectively. The topics discussed and acted upon were as varied as school constitutions and candy machines. The students under the guidance of Bob Daniel saw every- thing from the swimming pool to the physics lab.

Introduction 0 uture Sopbs to Stevenson old Pop Concert, the final result was the same: vivid memories of noise and music. One of the most important projects under- taken by the Student Senate was the intro- duction of next year's Sophomore Class to the building and procedures of Stevenson. Stu- dents from Bryant, Holmes, and Frost were taken on tours of the building to make the descriptions of Stevenson more meaningful.
