The Ball Band has worked out an ar- angement through which qualified students can work part time and receive regular pay plus school credits. The spirit of cooperation and the familiar adage, ‘““Two can live more cheaply than one’’, have prompted the pro- posed Mishawaka-Penn Township school corporation merger. Crowded school conditions and the need for similar building programs prompted the two school units to consider this plan which will bring advantages to all. Right here we should like to thank the citizens of Misha- waka, especially the east-enders, for patiently tolerating our bold flings—the way we monopolize the library at source theme time, invade the busses, or disturb the serenity of the night with wild shouts proclaiming a Cave- man victory. In other ways, too, we unintentionally create annoyances, but we’ll outgrow it and you'll be proud of us yet!

the ‘Under the competent leadership of John Weds- worth, assisted by Pat Berry, Morgan O’Dell, and Donna Weber, the student governors have considered a number of. propositions and have approved some of them. School and town leaders alike praised the council’s resolution to prohibit the drinking of intoxicating liquors at athletic contests. Arrangements for purchasing books at the school store were.improved, elimi- nating considerable confusion and tiresome wait- ing. More and more problems which arise are being referred to the council for consideration and Miss Wilson, as sponsor, finds the demands of council business encroaching on the dean’s time. tudent ouncil will do tt Properly supported, the Student Council will be a potent voice for the welfare of all. It needs the thoughtful backing of the entire student body to carry the resolutions into practice. The po- liceman stationed at the corner of Lincolnway and Studebaker streets as a safety measure was unsuccessful because the students wouldn’t cooperate. After vigorous and smart campaigning, Walt Triest, Larry Hoffman, Mary Amaral, and Donita Emmert were chosen next year’s officers in the recent elections.
