You, the students of Cleveland High School, elected me Student Body President this past semester. l feel humble and honored, for this office represents the soul of our school. Whether the soul is worth saving becomes my question. But, while it is mine, it is also yours. Have l done what l could to make life at Cleveland High School more meaningful? After your vote, did you offer support for my efforts? As the Student Body President, is there much that I can do to effect change? ls there much you can do as the student body? Are we victims of a rigid system? What voice do we really have in forming policy? What is our record? During the year, we organized a student forum where current social and political issues could be discussed. We completely revised the constitution to make it possible for more students to partic- ipate in representative government. We organized assemblies on the basis of student interest. We planned and executed the usual number of dances and sports nights. We planned and held an En- vironmental Week and participated in the usual leadership conferences. Can we be proud of our accomplishments? l believe we can, but at the same time, there should be a certain amount of,dissatisfaction. Un- less we leave a legacy of pleasure as well as pain, we cannot ask the juniors and sophomores after us to be either hostile or complacent. l hope the administration and faculty continue to make student government more meaningful. And l hope future students will remember us for the positive manner in which we acted and the resolute strength we exhibited as we tried to grow. W

fitme F Or S On Saturday, December 6, 1969, D'Artagnan Hall was transformed into the courtyard of a medieval castle for the annual Girls' League Vice-Versa Dance. Through the efforts of Girls' League President, Debbie Dierinzo, and Vice Presi- dent, Lois Whitley, the atmosphere of D'Artagnan Hall was reminiscent of the vanished age of chivalry, romance, and pageantry-the age of Romeo and Juliet. Coats of arms swagged between silhouetted windows, glorified the grey stone walls which surrounded the castle courtyard. Tall stone towers, castle gate, and a canopy of royal purple and ice blue streamers helped to capture the theme: A Time For Us. Couples in semi-formal attire danced to the exceptional music of Boon, During the band breaks, selections from a Henry Mancini album, including the Love Theme from Romeo and Juliet, were played for everyone's enjoyment. Couples were invited to feast on delicious cookies and drink the delightful punch served by the Nlarquisettes and Yeomen. Following the dance, couples repeated tradition by eat- ing a late supper at various community restaurants. The girls treated their escorts to a magnificent evening. 1
