so a s tae The results of the 1973 Student Council elec- tions were that the president and vice-president were juniors and the secretary and treasurer were sophomores. There was one senior officer who had not served on the council before. This caused a lot of resentment among the seniors who had run for an office and they chose not to run for rep- resentatives. The seniors who did not run a- gain could have enriched the council by their opinions and their previous experience on the co- uncil. Although the Student Council was inexper- ienced that wasn't the only problem. Some of the council members just weren't interested enough to take time to work to get a good club. It was true for the year long that the same members did all the work. Although the council did not get much accomplished this year, they will have experienced officers which should be an asset for them. The officers for 1974-1975 will be Laurie Remmetter Cpresidenti, Candy Duzan tvice- presidentl, Toy Duzan Csecretaryl, Brent Fulton Ctreasurerb, and Susan Hamble Cpublic relationsl. There were many questionaires taken this year concerning the Student Council and result of the questionaire was that the students felt there were not enough convocations, too many postponements of canteens and convocations due to the fact that the council had not gotten all the details set up. Following this paragraph are just a few of the opinions the students had about the council. We have tried to get a cross section of students' opinions. Q E SS! SENIORS: Not as good as it has been inthe past. I think the responsibilities should have been mori evenly distributed among the club rather than just the juniors . On the most part I don't think the council has a genuine interest and they were not rep- resentative enough of the students. It was hard to get things passed through IVIr. Fihe. I notice there was a lot of postponements of activities due to things not being organized. It doesn't do anything this year. The Stud Council's activities depend on the presi- dent. I don't feel the president did a good job I this year. I think the council did a good job. TEACHERS: There were not too many activities this year. Perhaps its better not to have too many. It seems they weren't as forceful as they have been in the past and they lacked the interest some have had in the past. I think the council did an excellant job. The officers were hard working for the most part. The activities they had went very smooth The homecoming and sectional activities were well planned. Overall I think the club did a good job. The club has been valuable. They were ir terested in changing the mood of apathy arounc the school. UNDERCLASSIVIEN: I think the public relations office did a bad job, you never knew when anything was goii to happen! I I I think the council did a good job. We did not reach enough people and we were not as rep resentative as we should have been. I don't know anything about the council. It's all right but I don't think they got as much done as they could have. I don't know that much about the council, its not publicized enough. I suppose its not the worst we've had. I think they do things for then selves rather than the majority. The same peop get everything so why run? I think the council members have tried to get more people involved, by making it that clas officers can't run. If people not on the council think they can do better then they should run for representative to bring their ideas out. Seniors, Becky Ketcham ILEFTJ and Paula Rhoades KRIGHTI, show their spirit during sectional week, sponsored by the council.

Although being vice-president of Student Council, junior :G Laurie Remmetter, still finds time for her studies. What are the duties of the Student Council? What is a representative? Ewa The Student Council is the government of the students. Each class has representatives based upon their size. The representative's duties are to bring his fellow classmates' ideas and criticisms to the council meetings and from there council decides what action to take. The Student Council's duties as a vvhole are to plan homecoming and sectional activities, to provide for convocations and to bring the students' 4.-is .M ideas and criticisms forth to the school board.
