After carefully preparing speeches and displaying posters, a group of students were elected by their fellow students to represent them in school government. They can draw up and enforce rules and penalties independently or with faculty assistance. The Student Council also helped coordinate extracurricular activities and help organize the school's social life. During this school year the extracurricular activity of the Student Council was the sponsoring of a talent show. Their future plans include helping provide funds to furnish paint along with needed materials to maintain the upkeep of the basement. We of Bismarck High are proud of the constructive work and the integrity that the Student Council has given our school. They have displayed the courage and willingness it takes to undertake such projects for the betterment of the school and the students. It is organizations such as this that make the faculty and the student body proud of their school and help determine the future success of that school. 13

Organizations are beneficial because they provide a manner of furthering interests in certain fields. These extracurricular activities made school more enjoyable for us whether we were participants or even students being entertained by some type of program. The beginning of good, outstanding citizens can be made possible by cooperation through various organizations. Remember to join an organization for the purpose of it and take advantage of the opportunities it offers. Organizations 12

YESTERYEAR Staff’s Goal Perfection In editing the YESTERYEAR, the annual staff of 1969 combined their various talents—drawing pages, photography, copy-writing, and most of all, ideas, Sharon Hughes, the editor, planned the book and supervised the editing. The business manager, Kay Hardage, handled the business correspondence, soliciting the ads which helped finance the making of the YESTERYEAR. Sandra Roberts, the experienced and competent typist, typed the pages. The other staff members, willingly completing the pages assigned them, and proofreading, filled their places well. Their willingness to work together and cooperation with the editor, Sharon Hughes, and sponsor, Mrs. Wanda Hall, paid dividends in the form of the proudly presented 1969 YESTERYEAR. Sharon Hughes Editor Sandra Roberts, Typist; Mrs. Wanda Hall, Sponsor; Kay Hardage, Business Manager.
