Student Council got off to an ear- ly start this year. President Scott Strubel began his term with the election of representatives from each homeroom. The Councils first challenge was sponsoring the foot- ball Homecoming and the dance afterwards. Queen Kathy Shorter and her court celebrated to the beat of H.O. Brown. The Christmas Dance was their next task. The theme The Secret of Christmas was finally agreed upon and work was begun. Decorations were ordered and made, with the hardest part yet to come — the huge task of making it all fit togeth- er. The group spent over two weeks getting ready for the big night, giv- ing up precious time after school. A large mural was hung in the lobby and styrofoam snowmen decorated the table tops. The 50 some couples rocked the night away to the beat of a band from Indianapolis, The Late Show. The Student Council was genu- inely concerned with CC ' s students this year and the Council tried to do things that the students would en- joy. Building snowmen is a task for Larry Schmidlin and Lori Moser as Xhey decorate for tfie dance.

A new headline style and a smaller size made the paper more attractive, easier for the staffers to worl with, and more readable. Editor-in-chief Martha May and her staffers put their 7th hour class period to good use. When deadlines rolled around, each day was spent laying out the paper, typing the arti- cles, and waxing down copy and headlines. Staffers were also busy getting interviews, writing stories, and taking pictures. When the pa- per was layed-out and everything was waxed down, it was sent to the printer. The Centralight staff consisted of eight people. Working with such a small group make things easier for Martha and the moderator, Mrs. Herber. When the staff had extra time be- tween deadlines, Mrs. Herber worked to help them improve their writing skills. One of the assign- ments she gave them consisted of writing a news story from a list of twenty facts. Hard work and dedication went into the Centralight. The finished product was something that the staffers and the student body were proud of. centralight 143
