In the money The Sophomore Sreering Committee, sponsored by Mrs. Loorse Dougher and Mr. Dick Patterson, is primar- ily concerned with public service and fund-raising projects.

Officers of the Sophomore Sreering Committee are: Chairty Miller, president: Dobbi Scheerger, vice-pres- ident. Jon Loos, secretary, and Carla Loomis, treasurer Planning the Junior-Senior Prom is the task assigned to the Junior Sreering Committee Everything from the dare ond ploce of the prom to the color of the table- cloths must be plonned by this committee This is a year long process, ond much of the planning is started early in the first semester of the school year.

This year the committee returned to its old method of selecting members. Prospective members had to sign up ond then survive an election by the senior class. The top 18 were then members. Last year ony senior who signed up could be a port of the committee The result of this was a group of 60 members, which caused a few problems. The moin function of this committee is to select a class gift. This year, because of some concern about whether giving a class gift is obsolete, members have written letters to schools throughout the country to get their ideas about class gifts. Other purposes of this group are to represent ond plan special functions for the senior dass. According to Resident Indro lesolnieks, Our moin objective is to involve the entire senior class.'' A goal of the group is to restore old trophies which have been stored in the basement, and possibly build a showcase to display them Committee officers are: Indro lesolnieks, president, Leah Shaw, vice-president Anno Baker, secretary, ond Foirh Miller, treasurer The sponsors ore Mrs. Alma How- deshell and Dr. Jean Kleirsch.

Rhondo Becker Working for you A Srudenr Council is rrodirionolly about os effective os o boll poinr pen that has been sovoged by o pencil sharpener. And StuCo members ore rrodirionolly vain, warped individuals who moke stupid speeches through their noses ond dream of being congresspersons ond taking huge bribes from sinister Arabs. The very opposite is true or Lincoln High. The Sru- denr Council is the most oaive ond effeaive one in Lincoln, ond probably the hardest working. The Council represents the srudenr body with the administration ond in the community. According to Council President Kate Kopischke. the administration really does listen to the Srudenr Counal. Principal Sam Nelson visits the Council every Tuesday, to discuss concerns ond policies The administration consults the Council on every major issue or policy change, ond each of the deportments, like Attendance ond Srudenr Affairs, also meet with the Council. If you don't have a Srudenr Council, you wouldn't have ony communication between the Administration ond the students.' said Sophomore Council Member Thod Potter. Junior Amy Thone felt that most students don't real- ize how much work the Student Council does. Being on Srudenr Counal involves much more than meeting eoch day for fifty minutes. The Council repre- sents the student body on the Community Council, rhe Srudenr Advisory Board, ond maintains contact between rhe students and many other school ond community organizations. The list of events sponsored by the Student Council is truly formidable. They planned dances, presented awards, organized concerts for rhe students, did rhe sound announcements, ond countless other tasks. While rhe busy bee counal members buzzed about. Sponsor Bufford Grosscup took roll ond relaxed The Council s officers ran rhe show, ond Grosscup simply mode sure that things didn't disintegrate into anarchy. Besides Resident Kopischke. officers ore Suzonne Peterson, vice-president; Amy Thone. treasurer; Mike Crosby, secretory, ond Jana Turpin, historian. The Council consists of six sophomores, six juniors, seven seniors, ond three Foreign Exchange Students.
