Students Take Charge Unlike in previous years, this year the student council got started right away. Instead of waiting until midwinter to hold elections, the students completed their campaigns in October. Representatives from each grade were elected by the student body. The council met once a week to discuss matters concerning the school and its immediate surroundings. Issues that arose during council meetings included: the lunch period. 4th hour open gym, bathrooms, and library books. One member of the council sat on the Rehab Inprovement committee, which discussed the possibilities of rehabilitating our school to make certain aspects of it more up-to- date and efficient. For each council meeting there was a set agenda prepared by President Jenny Colby and Vice President Chris Steller. Minutes were taken by Secretary Ann Loper, and were distributed and posted within two days of the meeting. An addition to the organization of the group from last year was a faculty advisor. John Freeman. Pres.- Jenny Colby. Vice Pres.- Chris Steller. Mem- bers include: Andrea Cut- ting, Ann Jacobs. Kathy Klonoski, Kathy Kuusisto, Doug Legg. Ann Loper. Sarah Loper.

M-U Whoosh And Shoosh Since we had no downhill ski team, a group of students at our school united to form a ski club, the first of its kind. The club was not involved in competition; according to senior Gary Surber. the purpose of the club was so that students interested in downhill skiing could get together to ski and have fun. Chief adult supervisor Bruce Gaff and designated students planned the club’s trips, which were all to Afton Alps. The ski club generated a good deal of interest among the students. About 150 people, three times the limit, signed up for the first trip. Overall, the ski club enjoyed great success, but best of all. as stated by Surber. the students had fun, ‘‘and nobody broke a bone! Picture number one: Jim Wiggles- worth.

Officers Get A Head Start On Social Events With elections taking place last year, this year’s Senior Class Officers got a head start in organizing various activities including the Sadie Hawkins dance, the Open House spaghetti dinner, homecoming events, and the Senior Prom. President Dori Hawkinson found herself rushing to and fro, and very, very busy. However, she said that she felt it was a worthwhile year. Vice- President Kristi Neal said this year’s officers were more willing to work than in previous years. Secretary Martin Schwabacher and Treasurer Ralph Weinberger agreed that although the officers were divided into different branches, “teamwork and co- operation got the job done.” “The fact that we could get started right away helped us a lot also. Schwabacher added. Overall, the senior officers provided a full year of fun and activities for the students. They did a job worth being proud of. Photo number one: Vice President Kristi Neal.
