As a group it offers excellent opportunities for bettering student relationship with faculty and the community. The members of the Student Council are elected by a student election where all the mem- bers of the class vote for the persons they want to represent their class. Among the many activities of the Student Council this year was the Homecoming Dance held on October l7. The Northbrook gym was used because the MHS gymnasium was not yet ready for use. The gymnasium was decorated with goal posts and football players in conjunc- tion with the theme lt's All in the Game. Caro- line Musick and Larry Davis were chosen as Homecoming king and queen. The attendants were as follows: seniors, Helen Rollins and Jerry Elliott g juniors, Patti Biers and Chuck Frey, sophomores, Peg Leamy and Duane Stremlaug freshmen, Barbara Rider and Jack 'Phalen. Another activity of this year's Student Council was the sponsorship of the annual Freshman Orientation Day to provide new students with all the information and advice that they needed to become better acquainted with MHS. Money making projects were the Homecoming Dance, selling shakers and pins at Homecoming time, and a coat check at the games. This year's Student Council officers were Robert Masters, president: James Owens, vice- president, Margaret Hendrick, secretary-treasur- erg and Kent Truckenbrod, parliamentarian. They were an extremely capable group and under the direction of the advisors, Mr. Murdock and Miss Moore, did an exceptionally fine job of goveming the MHS student body.
