Y-TEENS Enthusiastic girls devote time to local community Finding fun in lending a helping hand, Y-Teeners worked through the year to learn about and solve community problems. They helped the craft work of the Hospital Auxil- liary, manned the Salvation Army kettles at Christmas, went caroling, made candy for welfare children and addressed Easter Seal enve- lopes. At one meeting, Mr. Timmer- man explained the program ofthe sheltered workshop, Quadco, and of Sunnyside School for retarded children. Another memorable meet- ing featured two young men from Toledo who discussed the drug abuse problem. On this occasion, Hi-Y boys were guests, followingthe pay-off supper - the third in a row for Y-Teeners, who were unable to locate the elusive boys at the tradi- tional H-Y-Y-Teen hunt. Four Y-Teens earned the U.N. Study Tour - a whirlwind trip to New York. Becki Crist, Marie Ober- lin, Barb Sininger and Laura Shock- ley returned from the three-day excursion dazzled by the lights of Broadway, breathless from sight- seeing and impressed with the work of the United Nations. Affiliated with the Toledo YWCA the girls refused Community Chest assistance this year for the first time. They earned their fees by pay- ing dues of 551.50 and selling auto- whiskits. At the Mother-Daughter banquet, held in May, Kathy Gee became the winner of the twenty- sixth annual Claire Newcomer Award pin. It was presented by Kris- ty Plouck, the 1969 winner, to be worn through her senior year. Mrs. Potter and Mrs. Vincent acted as advisers, with Mrs. Claude Eppard serving as town sponsor and repre- senting the Bryan group at YWCA conferences in Toledo. Y-Teen Officers.

Gung-Ho student government was the motto for the year. lVlem- bers struggled to become known as a real student government rather than a dance - sponsoring club. With almost half of the group serv- ing for the first time, new blood stimulated the Student Council into action. Seven members attended a workshop in Hillsdale in October and came back with many ideas adding newlife to the organization. Complaints concerning the pur- poses of clubs aroused the Council to examine and revise club constitu- tions. Members discussed the closed noon hour issue with classmates and expressed their views-overwhelmingly against. Other additions and changes in school life were the monthly calen- dar of school events and the revi- sion of the voting system for Home- coming elections. The annual Christmas assembly drew the year to a close - 1969, that is - but there was much more work to come. The Student Council sponsored a parliamentary procedure workshop to aid presidents and vice-presi- dents of clubs in conducting busi- ness meetings. including speakers and information from various sources, a drug assembly for the community became a major project undertaken by Student Council. The Caldwell music assembly was re- ceived with remarkable enthusiasm. Adopting a school seal to be used on jackets, graduation announce- ments, rings or whenever desired, added a final touch to a productive year.
