COORDINATORS Ironing out conflicts and or- ganizing dates of activities were the key objectives of the newly- formed Student Affairs Committee. Through the SAC, clubs were able to plan and carry through projects. They saw to it that no clubs duplicated money-raising activi- ties. The SAC sponsored a co- operative dance to which all clubs pooled their funds and shared in its profits. Mr. Richard Carter evaluated the SAC as follows: This organization gives the students an opportunity to take part in decision-making policies. It has been quite success- ful, but there is a need for more involvement from some of the smaller organizations here at MHS. Sleepy club representatives attend early- morning meetings. Chairman, Teri Seay, addresses the SAC. Mr. Richard Carter, sponsor, and representatives from several or the active clubs in the school. twenty-eight s c

Burger Bash .... Mud Bowl . . . Canada Man Hunt . . . Haunted House . . . Disney World . . . Battle of the Bods . . . Rafting . . . what better way is ther to get away from homework? Campus Life provides activities designed to amuse and entertain all who attend. The year started with a mammoth Mud Bowl and Burger Bash, where Menchville, having the largest turnout, won a first place trophy. At the annual Scream in the Dark , eager students helped paint, build, apply make-up, and finally took on Werewolf. Hundreds of students ventured to Canada and Florida during Christmas and Spring breaks. The school year wound up with a giant Battle of the Bods , giving aall participants an outlet to their frustrations. ■ Besides these special events, Ike Newingham, Director of Campus Life, led meetings each week at various homes. Such topics as drugs, drinking, and dating were discussed and opinions from every- one were welcomed. So this is Campus Life— good times, singing, sharing, answers to problems, people who care, hope for tomorrow. Gail Weaver finds herself sightly disarrayed after an episode of tug- of-war across a mud filled puddle. Rosey Scott experiences the shock of his life. Mud bath, anyone?
