£tu jeht Cabinet The government of the student body, the Senior High Student Council, is an example of democracy at its best. The members of the council consist of the Cabinet,who are annually elected in the spring under the tension of a mock political campaign, two representatives from each homeroom, class president, and five members-at-large. Under the direction of Mrs. Finberg, the cabinet meets on alternate Mondays,developing and carrying out tasks for the betterment of our school.Yearly activities include sponsoring the football homecoming, contributing to the foreign exchange program, and taking charge of the annual magazine sales drive. The Student body of LHS is indeed grateful for the work and achievement of their student body. The grand finale to a week of earnest campaigning is the presentation of campaign speeches by the student cabinet candidates to the student body.

This just means, The best greetings to all of you from Denmark and Helga Lybye. Helga is the 5 ft. 7 in., green eyed, dark blond, foreign exchange student from North Jutland, Denmark. She has one brother and two sisters, all younger than she. Her father is a forest supervisor. Although Helga has many hobbies, her favorites include skiing, skat- ing, swimming, botany, and reading. As far as American foods go Helga likes hamburgers,french fries,jello, french toast, and sweet corn. How- ever, watermelon just didn't suit her fancy. Helga likes best of all the kind and friendly people in Lu- verne. She thinks that,too, of the entire United States. When Helga returns home,she plans to go to the gymnasium for three years in the new languastic line. The gymnasium is comparable to our last two years of high school and the first year of college. Her ul- timate goal in her education is to become a teacher. We, the students of LHS, are in- deed honored to have such a fine, young person as Helga for our for- eign exchange student. Many students and parents gave Helga a cordial Ameri- can welcome at the reception held in her honor soon after her arrival. Among those receiving Helga are Karen Anderson, Judy Connell, and LeRoy Thompson.
