The Finance Committee: this committee costs each student 87.50. responsibility for it was assumed by the com- mittee, who recruited willing workers for the Center. The Community Service Committee organized work at the Church of the Master. The basement was repaired, and equipment generally re-organ- ized, and toys were repainted and new ones made. The Assembly Committee has gained unusual renownthisyear. Although the committee has been operating on a severly cut budget, itxhas managed to produce interesting, entertaining, varied, andeveneducational assemblies, ranging from lo- cal talent shows toa.science assembly. The local talent shows have provided manyof'the especially bright spots on the year's program. Now people are saying that besides just being brilliant, every Joe and Jane at H.M.-L. can play nChop- sticksn and a mean bass fiddle. The chemistry show was another bright spot. It was supposed to go off withzabang, but unfortunately the banging machinery was out of order and only a thud and a giggle were heard. The assembly was a hit, how- ever, and a repeat performance for thelower school was received with similar success. Among other high spotscn1the Assembly sche- dulewas Sing Out, Sweet Land, given by the ninth grade, the Horace Mann School for Boys'assemblM which never came off, and the all-school musical program in the spring. The Assembly Committee can be proud of this year's achievement in providing the school with good assemblies. Only four members on the com- mittee were old hands atthe business, but Chair- man Alice Gutmann happily announced that the new members caughton fast. All in all, the committee has had a busy and gratifying year. Last, but not in the least least, we come to the Finance Committee, that pillar of student government and savior of financially embarrassed committees. Pat Reed and her crew of trusty treasurers drew up the budget at the beginning of the year for the Counc1l's approval. Financial operation was somewhat stymied this year by lack of money. All committees had to Wmake don with severely reduced allowances. They seemed to fare fairly well, even though the shoe may have pinched many of them. For a detailed analysis of H.M.-L.'s student economy see the latest copy of WMoney isn't Everyth1ng...H issued by the Finance Com- mittee. As we leave the wistful vistas of H.M.-L.'s crowded corridors, we brush a dollar bill from our eye fthe one we never gave to the S.A.F.D, and think nostalgically back upontheevery-other Thursday sessions at which the Council and the committees arranged affairs of state for our school.

,U fhbahbfz This year's story of the two H.M.-L. publications, Highlights and the Lincoln- ian, began one September morning when editors Bob and Bettina each asked the Council for a portion of the Student Activities Fund. A struggle between the two editors and the Student Council ensued, after which the sum that Bob had requested was re- duced, although Bettina's demands were granted. With the school year well on its way by this time, Bob took his staff and set up shop in one corner of the Blue Gallery Cthe corner with the windowj, and Bettina, with her co-workers, began to work in another corner of the office fthe corner with the comfortable couchj. First the Lincolnian had to find itself a reasonable offsetter and Highlights had to find itself a very reasonable printer. Then the editors began doling out assignments, and the assistant editors began writing the required articles and turning them in two weeks after the final deadline. From the time that the Blue Gallery acquired a door and became room 302, its regular inhabitants spent their time typing, editing copy, rewriting, and often re- writing again. The big steel files were always overflowing with pictures, copy, and miscellaneous belongings of the staff. The walls were decoratedwithlicense plates, issues of Highlights, unusual pictures, and deadline lists--all evidence of the diligence of Lincolnian and Highlights officials alike. Some way or other, no one is quite sure how, Highlights was published fairly regularly and the yearbook finally went on sale, eventually finding itself in the possession of the underclassmen, who carried it down the halls with them as they chased after the Seniors. 11---un-Tb ,11-1-iii r4f5't w 'T W ., 49 as-.... lf 5259.
