EDITORIAL The objective oftheYearbo k staff has been to include within the covers of the Macadonian a much as possible of the school year 1961-62. We hope that th ; takes in all the big events and many of the small ones, and w serve to remind you, in future years, of school days 1961-62 ' ' Perhaps as you leaf through thi book in later years conversatio will follow the theme - Do you remember . . . the afternoon we listened to Colonel John Glenn ' s landing. . . the day the large hose in the lower hall sprang a leak. . . practising for Closing Exercises in King Memorial Church? The Yearbook staff did a fine job and I would like to than them for their help throughout the year. I wish to extend special thanks to the friends who could always be relied upon in emergencies - who helped with the tremendous task of or¬ ganizing hundreds of students for pictures - did last minute typing during the summer holidays. The work of the typists was appreciated by the Yearbook staff, as was the help of Mr , Lee and the English teachers in preparing the Literary sectic Macadonian 1961-62 is the product of a combined and sus tained effort. Good luck and best wishes. Bonnie McCallum.

The Student Council of Miles Macdonell offers the students many activities in which they can participate. The objectives of this organization are to provide opportunities to practice active demo¬ cratic living outside of school hours; to provide opportunities for the discovery of special qualities and abilities; to stimulate student interest in the school and to help to develop school morale and spirit. The Student Council sponsors many of the student activities. The highlights of these for 1961-62 are: dances including the very successful Freshie Dance and the Sweetheart Swirl, basketball games, purchasing cheerleader uniforms, organization of the Glee Club, Science Club, Yearbook and Newspaper Staff, and of course Kaleidoscope and Closing Ex¬ ercises which are not likely to be soon forgotten. We ' ll also long remember those Tuesday noon hour meetings. The President Dennis Martin and Secretary Bev Edwards together organized the smoothly functioned meetings. The fellowship of the meetings helped to give the students valuable lessons in running a democratic organization.
