Co-Operation Marks Council Year Under the leadership of officers Dave Nevel, Presi- dent; Kathy Hillaert, Vice-President; Roger Brady, Treasurer; and Mary Ann Pechi, Secretary; the Student Council accomplished a year of service to Mishawaka High School. In August, before school began, mem- bers of Student Council helped at the Freshman Orientation Day by guiding tours for the new stu- dents. Representatives promoted and sold Miskodeeds and Student Directories in their sponsor rooms. At Homecoming and Mid-Semester the Council sponsored dances, two of the biggest events of the school year. Both dances were opened to former students and to dates who attended other schools. A large crowd at- tended each dance. The Council helped support the American Field Service Program by financially aiding our guest from another country and our student traveler. Each year the flag of the foreign student has been purchased to fly with the American flag. This year the Council bought the flag of Malaysia, honor- ing the country of exchange student Suhaila Sham- suddin. After entertaining the student body during the second semester with a Student-Faculty basketball game and a Hootenanny, the Council presented the school with an annual gift. Spring found some juniors seeking Student Council offices. Candidates prepared petitions, campaigns with posters, and platform speeches. Foreign Exchange Student Suhaila Shamsuddin and Student Council Vice-President Kathy Hilleart discuss plans for the spring AFS drive.

Thespian Members Proudly Wear Pins Thespian membership was also gained by those working on commit- tees. Make-up Chairman Tony Marando glues a realistic beard on Bob Mead, psychiatrist. Students sat nervously on the edge of their seats at the National Honor Society inductions held in the au- ditorium on November 21, 1967 and March 14, 1968, hoping their names would be called. Fifteen percent of the senior class was chosen to be members by the faculty. Mr. Merle Blue was the sponsor. The members were chosen not only on scholarship but also on char- acter, leadership, and service. A reception tea for the inductees and their parents followed both inductions. The first semester officers were Craig Salyer, Presi- dent; Bill Groth, Vice-President; Jane Zimmerman, Secretary; and Cosimo Natali, Treasurer. These offices changed the second semester with Carol Ann Nix, President; Jim LaBelle, Vice-President; Suzanne Col- lins, Secretary; and Hilary Asher, Treasurer. The Emily K. Davidson Thespian Troupe 496 began its second year under the direction of Mr. James Wright. After the senior play, the roll included 29 dramatists. These students, interested in the produc- tion and presentation of plays, earned their member- ships by working on the two class plays. In January the members sold MHS class pins to raise money. The Juniors who had major roles in their class play were inducted in May.
