Y-Teens Promote Share Project To Earn $168.81; POTLLCK. Freshman Diane Calvin and other Y-Teens fill their plates with delectables at one of the club ' s potluck dinners at the Mishawaka YMCA. Two sections often ate together and then went swimming. FLOAT CONSTRUCTION. Y-Teens Joyce DeNeve and Marilou Karsl cover an angel wing and pitclifnrk for a homecoming float. Y-Teens varied their year with social events and service pro- jects. In the fall the girls gave a get-acquainted party for the freshman girls, constructed a homecoming float, and invited their mothers to a formal recognition service. The different class sections gave several pot luck suppers followed by swims at the Mishawaka YMCA. With the Christmas season came Project Share which is an annual undertaking of the Y-Teens and Hi-Y. This year $168.81, along with food donations, was collected; baskets were distributed to needy families in the area. The Y-Teens also hung the greens at the YWCA in South Bend, decorated the school Christmas tree, and presented a play based on A Christmas Carol for the members at a party in the Y. The Y-Teen Cabinet met several times in the year to discuss the program and make suggestions to improve the club. Several members attended inter-club council meetings in the South Bend Y to discuss county-wide activities. During the winter the Y-Teens with the Commercial Club worked in the concession booths at home basketball games. With the Hi-Y they presented the Easter program for students the day before spring vacation. Y-Teens ended their year with a style show and the election and installation of officers. 28

During the summer about thirty volunteers delivered sample dishes for an oil company. With part of the earnings, the Council paid one-half the cost of the cheerblock uniforms and bought new stage curtains. This year the Council changed the traditional activities of Homecoming. In the afternoon students cheered the team at a pep session and followed the parade of floats. Immediately after the game about 500 teenagers danced to the music of the Royals at the Homecoming Dance. The Foreign Student Drive Committee received contributions from organizations, student donations, and collections at a basket- ball game. The Building and Grounds Committee secured a Greek flag to fly in honor of this year ' s foreign exchange student and purchased two large philodendrons for the main hall. To give students a chance to relax at the semester break, the Council sponsored a dance. In March officer candidates hung posters and shook hands with voters in hopes of winning the elec- tion. The winners were installed at the silver anniversary banquet before Student Council notables of the past 25 years. FUND RAISING. Looking over instructions before handing out dishes for a gasoline company, volunteers raised money for Stu- dent Council projects. 27
