m pan® ;; tetft jud;■ book by its f CfM'- - 8 No club, activity, or sport requires as much time and work as that of the yearbook. To layout two hundred and eight pages complete with copy, pictures, headlines, and captions as well as conduct a sales campaign and get advertisements is a prodigious task. Trivial details such as eighty-two page deadlines, seemed to crop up at the most inopportune times and a small staff hindered progress. Nonetheless, a dedicated group of students plus a hardworking advisor. Mrs. Anne Fra- zier — Home Economics instructor, prevailed. Staff members included: Kevin Fry.

 ooooh. John Wayne AD-FAB-SAC AD-FAB SAC is a new board which gives the students, faculty, and administration an equal vote on any policy decisions which have a direct bearing on the students. The Student Advisory Committee (SAC) repre- sents the Student Council, while AD FAB rep- resent the Administration and Faculty Advisory Board respectively. The procedure of the AD-FAB SAC council calls for the FAB and SAC to poll their respective bodies on the issue at question. The results of these polls and the administrative view is then discussed and a joint policy is re submitted to the bodies. The results of these votes determines the position of each body and in a final meeting of majority determining the school policy. This newly formed tri-umverate has been a major step in giving the students an effective way of voicing their opi- nions. 21 all quiet on the western front!
