Student Council Student Council As Student Council advisor, I view the Council's function as being the liason between many factions here at Central. It is, and has been, this function we've addressed through leadership and concern. This pur- pose, as Ms. Hensel puts it, is fulfilled by Student Council through their many activi- ties and services for students and the com- munity. The Council's traditional projects include organizing the Homecoming dance, which involves, among other things, putting up decorations, finding a band, and choosing the theme song, and the annual Southern Center drive. This year the Council raised over S2700, which was used to buy presents for the mentally retarded persons living at the Center. Council member Steve Topetzes remarks, Despite the lack of an assembly such as the one we had last year, the enthusiasm of the Council was unshaken, and thanks to great student participation, this year's collection was successful. An intra-school anti-litter campaign and a dance to raise money for the Lancer-Spar- tan Scholarship Fund were also conducted. Another Council activity was participation in the Braveland Conference Student Coun- cil Association, which meets four times a year to discuss common problems, compare programs, and set up interschool exchange days, in which Central students have the opportunity to attend another area school for a day. The reward of the year's efforts comes in the form of a Wisconsin Association of Stu- dent Councils' Standards of Excellence rat- ing, the result of an evaluation of the year's activities written by the Council and submit- ted in March to the WASC. Central's Council has been awarded an A rating for the past four years. Student Council has been a good experi- ence for me, states Caroline Hogan. lfve learned to organize, to follow through with projects, and to work with all kinds of peo- ple. Tom Merkel concludes, As School Board Representative, l've had the opportunity to be a bridge between the Council, the stu- dents, and the Board. To me, this is one of the most important functions of the organi- zation. in President Carrie Haufschild works in the Coun- cil ottice.

Tyro For the staff of the Tyro, the school newspaper, this year was a challenging one. The combination of a small staff and the large amount of individual work necessary to complete articles and lay- out caused some problems at the monthly deadlines. However, there remained a core of dedicated members willing to give their time and energy to complete the necessary tasks. This year was the second that Tyro made use of an editorial board. The board was set up last year as a vehicle for fairer and more complete editorial coverage in the paper, and most agree that it is a successful system. Editorial Editor Joe Kronsnoble remarks, Our editorial board this year was full of ideas. We found that in the first few issues of the paper we played it safe in our editorials, but later in the year, after we were able to read the mood of the student body by their Our staff of editors, writers, and photographers were con- stantly working for deadlines or on paste-up and layout. Everyone tried their best to keep up with the never-ending cycle of the paper. - Kirk Wooldridge 41, Jim Pandl and Mark Middleton work on a paste-up. 12, Setting headlines, John Zajac works with a typesetter. 13, Tyro staff - 1150: Mrs. Mos- chella, Linda Lambrecht, Diane Carco, Lisa Bourdo, Astrid Schmidt. l2nd,: Dave Knott, Joe Kronsnoble, Tony Contresarl, Jim Pandl, Matt Claus, Peter Liacopoulos, Kevin Wedding, Mike Mumper, Kirk Wooldridge. 3rd1: Mark Middleton, John Zajac. 14, Reading Albatross' eggs, are Cathy Dupar and Gail Miller. 15, Albatross Staff - l1sl,: Sean M.

One such strong stance, the Student Council editorial, which criticized the Council for allegedly not providing suffi- cient student services, caused a lot of controversy in the school. Many stu- dents felt that the editorial was unfair and not completely accurate. One major problem that the staff encountered during the year was that of keeping the paper's articles releva and current, We really had to try write the stories as up-to-date as pos ble, especially in the sports section, that when the paper came out tl wouldn't be old news, remarks Spo Editor Tony Contresceri. Mike Mumper concludes, lt take: lot of experience and hard work to r the paper. I hope that future staffs c carry on the Tyro tradition. 7.1. H' - 3. X its ' as 'txt A Y 2 his 45.
