TEENS across the nation are accepting responsi- bility and honors as preparation for adult life. Lawrence Central paves this pathway to adulthood by giving higher responsibility to its students in legislative bodies, service organizations, and praising them with honorary membership and awards. Lawrence Central proudly sent its politically minded honor students to the annual Summer Boys, and Girls, State. Delegates from across the state par- leyed for two week sessions at Indiana University focusing their attention on political legislation, civics instruction and campaigning for either the Federalist or Nationalist parties. Susan Morford, Sarah Hiatt, Mike Duch and Chris Shank represented LC. The highest legislative body of LC, the Student Council, is composed of two freshman, sophomore, and junior representatives, two senior delegates with the junior and senior class presidents. Topics brought before the council are discussed with vice-principal, Max Roush and sponsor advisor John Montgomery. At monthly meetings, they carefully consider the notes collected by the council's Suggestion boxes which are conveniently placed in the school. School improve- ments and problems of the entire student body are open for evaluation when they are brought before the homeroom representatives. The Bible Club features guest speakers, films, and fellowship for members and interested students. For the past three years, a quiz team made up of members has provided competitive interest for the club and for other school teams. Mr. ,Iohn St-human, guest speaker for the Bible Club, presents an inspiring lecture to attentive members during a regular auditorium meeting. 1 Lf S
