At Hillsdale. one member is elected from each organization and two are elected from each class. The past year, this organization met each week in order to become a better qualified group to meet the problems of student unity and cooperation. Problems, improve- ments, and general disabilities relating to the school were brought before this choice group for acknowledge ment. It tried to solve each quickly. consistently, and efficiently. with the guidance and helping hand of the advisers. Mr. Jim McKinley and Mr. Gene Yeater. The accomplishments of our Student Council in the past year have been many and its enthusiasm was inexhaustible. Its first and largest project was planning and executing the Homecoming celebration. The Christmas season brought a school party and dance into reality with the Student Council as host. Along with their regular responsibilities, several record hops were planned and discharged after football and basketball games for the entertainment of all students. A year-end project of student elections was ini- tiated by this year's S. C. The aim was to enable qualified students to run for class offices which they were capable of pursuing and, in most cases, elect the most competent candidates. Petitioning, campaigning, and finally, voting were carried out. A AT LEFT: Junior Sherry Myers takes time in voting for those who she thinks will do the best job as leaders of her class during the coming year.
