However. the students accepted the responsibility of making the decisions and discussing problems maturely. The council met every other week to bring' forth, discuss and vote on the problems exist- ing in the school. l'roblems and ideas of the group included such things as homecoming preparations, arrangements for a new foreign student for the coming year, pencil sales and many more projects. EACH HOMEROOM elected a representa- tive and an alternate to represent them at the council meetings. Several of the larger classes had two or three council members. Barbara Stiger and Michael Ostroumoff, Mason City lligh Schools l95G-l95T foreign students, were voted honorary members of the council.
