New enthusiasm from students helps improve League projects Girls ' League is an important part of school because it gives girls a sense of accomplishment, noted Girls ' League president Pam Marantz. The organization accomplished a first when they sponsored their first mini-course. A representative from the John Powers modeling agency gave tips on groom- ing and current fashions. Projects planned for the fall included the Nor- mangram, Albion Street, and the clas- sified breakfast. New enthusiasm pro- moted by the fall officers increased membership from only a few to an out- standing number of forty. It gives me a good feeling to know that Boys ' League has come into its own, remarked Boys ' League presi- dent Mike Katz. During the fall, the long-standing tradition of non-acti- vity was broken with a multitude of successful events. The semester began with a ping-pong tournament which brought a whopping turnout of 120 en- tries. Boys ' League also co-sponsored with ASB a successful car wash. The Norman Newsreel was revived by this fall ' s officers. Fall Boys ' League finally shrugged off the cloud of apathy from previous years and became a produc- tive organization. 222

V 3 eo DO ■o c o so c League, commissioner projects alleviate second semester blues Second semester blahs and severe sen- ioritis were not the case for Girls ' and Boys ' League and the commissioners. Girls ' League, headed by Linda Ross, brought back the popular Norman- gram message for Easter. They also raised funds from the Open House bake sale and a lollipop sale. Boys ' League endeavors included helping Girls ' League with their annual Easter trip to Albion Street. President Bruce Soil, working with Mr. Lyie Suter, co- ordinated a slide show in place of the Norman Newsreel. The 24 ASB commisioners ' specific duties included the investigation of student-related difficulties and plan- ning major activities. Traffic conges- tion at the corner of Moreno and Du- rant was solved as traffic commissioner Lily Zekaria persuaded City Council to appropriate funds for a traffic light. Other commissioner accomplishments included the intramural basketball tourney organized by Jerry Katz, Dave Newmark ' s efforts towards Beverly ' s second Renaissance Day, and Jack Abramoff ' s organization of the Sugar Ray Robinson Celebrity Basketball Game. 224
