Sara Grande, the student council president, called the meeting to order. Mindy Langford, student council secretary, read the old business and wrote new business on her recording book. There was no time to waste for they had many important decisions to make. Student council was the strongest club on campus. With their vote and Mr. Bridger’s approval, activities at Antelope were held. The club was composed of experienced and responsible members who helped keep Student Council gets school going things in order around school. When Sara Grande was asked how she felt about being Antelope’s Student Body President, she said, “I feel that being student council president is a big responsibility, but I enjoy working with other people to make our school better.” Student council members not only made important decisions concerning the school but also organized games and dances for students. For example, they organized Homecoming Week, a big event at Antelope which included games during school and a dance on Homecoming night. The student council tried to make the school better and more interesting. The homeroom bell rang, and Sara Grande adjourned the meeting at 9:55. Mindy Langford finished writing last minute notes and put away her record book. They met again the following Wednesday to discuss more issues regarding the school.

From Russia With Love James Bond was the brainchild of Ian Fleming, who was author of all the Bond series. The great popularity of this cool, suave, smooth hero of the screen in the Sixties was more of a cult than love of a movie character. James Bond was portrayed as possessing an unsurmountable quantity of good fortune and a more modest amount of nearly superhuman escapist qualities. Working for one of the world’s most prestigious secret services, Her Majesty’s Service, James Bond could always count on some gizmo, contraption, or device to be presented to him (just in case) and all designed to do some fantastic far-fetched wonder. From grenades tucked secretly in the soles of his shoes to elaborate sports cars which even the sophisticated Russian tanks could not stop were all Bond’s trademarks. The James Bond movie was guaranteed to keep movie watchers on the edge of their seats through the climax of fast adventure. Agent “007 miraculously survived life threatening encounters with such malicious characters like the modern oriental samurai with the famed bowler hat designed to skillfully decapitate an opponent with its stainless steel brim. This popular screen character was played by Sean Connery, better known to movie fans as the original James Bond. Connery starred in seven James Bond flicks, beginning in 1962 with “Dr. No,” “From Russia With Love” in 1963, “Goldfinger” in 1964, “Thunderball” in 1965, “You Only Live Twice” in 1967, “Diamonds Are Forever” in 1971, and finishing up with his 1982 picture “Never Say Never Again.”
