President Reggie Roio, Vice- president Dwight Gaston, Secretary Craig Peterson and Treasurer Craig Keizur started off the meetings, at which members discussed such topics as open campus, water polo, United Way contributions and election changes in the Constitution. ln the course of the year, the student council sponsored a food and toy drive during Decem- ber, a door decorations contest for Christmas and a Unit- ed Way canister at the end of lunch lines. The student council planned to repair the K above the freeway, but the boys' cross country team took over the plans and worked on it in October. For Reggie Rojo, being president of the ASB turned out to be more work than he thought. l'm not sorry I did it. Working with Mr. Kinch and the other officers was no problem. We got along well, he said. The officers met for about a half hour the Monday before a meeting for planning. Because of this, the meetings held every other week proved to be successful. Matt Mandrones, a rep. for the orchestra, said that he enjoyed taking part in making decisions for the school. I think the topics we discussed were brought up for the benefit of the school. They made the school better for the students, he said. Matt also mentioned that even though the representatives didn't know the formal pro- cedures for speaking, they got the message across. On the other hand, Reggie Rojo commented on the fact that most of the reps. put in what they had to say. Reggie Rojo had some problems with keeping the meetings going, however. Sometimes it was hard to get the members' attention. They had a lack of interest at times, but the best thing about the meetings was helping reps. coordinate their efforts with those of ASB. To sum up the year, Reggie said, lt was fun, and it was worth it 1-During a meeting, ASB reps. strive to make an important decision regarding an all-school activity. 2-Serving as the biggest money maker for the ASB, the Coke machine is monitored by advisor Gary Kinch. 3-ln order to get more school involvement, ASB reps form committees to express different ideas. 4-The ASB officers include Craig Keizur, busi- ness manager, Craig Peterson, secretary, Dwight Gaston, vice-presi- dent and Reggie Roio, president. 5-Leading the ASB, Reggie listens to a new idea.

Lassie Club shows Lassies, a group of approximately one hundred mem- bers, had more members than any other club in the school. This group, which made up Kelso High's pep club, promoted spirit and enthusiasm for the entire stu- dent body. Homecoming plans began in early September, by the club, with preparation meetings held both during and after school hours. Lassies earned money by selling the traditional Kelso mums to finance the roses that were handed to each princess and also the fireworks display that lit up the sky after the announcement of the queen during half time. Lassies also counted up student votes to narrow down the princess candidates to five, who were revealed by the escorts, at a special Homecoming pep assembly. The escorts were chosen by votes of the club members. lt's a lot of hard work to get this size of event set up, stated President lulie Wilson. Lassies showed their support to both boys and girls teams that went to state by buying each team member a flower. They also sold blue and gold pom poms at foot- ball games to help promote school spirit. A car rally, hosted by the club, traveled to R. A. Long's game at Long- view Memorial stadium. Cars were decorated and an award was given for the best car. Sweatshirts were sold to both students and faculty, decorated with Kelso's Scottie dog mascot. All in all, the Lassies year was very successful in promot- ing school spirit. President lulie Wilson's highlight was handing Homecoming Queen Marcy Faling her rose dur- ing the coronation. Somehow it made my whole three years in Lassies all worthwhile, stated lulie. 1-Solemnly swearing to tell the whole truth, Reggie Rojo shows his citizenship in the homecoming assembly skit. 2-Writing the Lassie agenda on the board, Mrs. Bev Laulainen gets ready for a meeting. 3- Lassie officers include President lulie Wilson, Vice-president Karen Russell, Secretary Becky Hibberd and Treasurer loann Goody. 4-During second and third periods, President lulie Wilson delivers mums to anx- iously awaiting people. 5-while cutting some papers before a meeting, advisor, Mrs. Elana Carpenter thinks things over. 28 Lassies spirit, enthusiasm 1 N-.,,,M - .xr ,
