STUDENTS SHOW CREATIONS DURING ART X CULTURAL FAIR 1- 4- he spring Executive Council has a harder time than fall because not as many activities are ' planned for the spring, explained Miss Martha Ireland, adviser. Some of the activities sponsored in the spring included the Portland Dance Theatre assembly, the food drive, and a no-penalty period for those stu- dents possessing overdue books. A new activity, an ArtfCultural Fair, was presented following the spring play, The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigoldsf' The art segment of the Fair included Cleveland students exhibiting and selling their ceramics, jewelry, paintings, sketches and photographs. The language clubs also participated by selling foods and doing demonstrations. Reacting to a surprise announcement by the admin- istration that an eight period schedule would replace the modular system, spring president Gretchen Spence said, I was very disappointed that the administration placed so little value on our opinions. Student govern- ment is very important, and I hope that in the future the administration pays more attention to our input about important issues.

THOUGH BAND DISAPPOINTS, CHRISTMAS SEMI ENJOYED - - oonlight and Mistletoe was chosen as this l. ' year's theme for the Christmas semi-formal, once again held in the Portland State University Ballroom and sponsored by the fall Executive Council. The group Shaniko, which performed at the dance, was disappointing to many who attended. I expected the group to be a lot better, was a popular response. Dennis Hipes, senior, masqueraded as Santa Claus and passed out candy canes and jolly Ho-Ho's to enhance the Christmas theme, according to jeff Lindquist, student body second vice president. Reigning over the semi-formal was Queen Lisa Exley, senior, who was selected by a vote at the door. Court members included junior Chris Beard, sophomore Cheryl Dowty and freshman jennifer Christonhersnn F!
