STUDENT COEJNCII 15 Better school communications and more student exchanges were the main ambitions of Student Council this year. Under the leadership of President, Cara Robb and Vice-President, Julie Ritter, the Council was able to raise money for various projects and activities. Council's entertainment included the Christmas as- sembiywhere Junior Jacquie Brodbeck, dressed as Santa, presented the teachers baskets of cheese, sausage, and candy in appreciation for their time and work. Through Student Council and its active members, Mercy strives to prove itself as a community of young women, ready to assist those in need, women with a broader vision of their world.

AUDIENCE SINGS AS CHRISTMAS CONCERT FORMAT IS CHANGED With bells- ringing in the yuletide season, the Mercy Music Depart- ment presented its annual Christmas Concert. This year the concert was held in the gym because the number of students involved was too large for the performance to be held in the theater. Under the direction of Mr. John Mooter, the band provided timely music while Mrs. Susan Quirk conducted the Glee Club and Senior Chorus in their seasonal hymns. The theme of Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas was enacted when the audience was asked to participate in singing several carols -- a new touch for this year's concert. The December 16th and 17th performances provided all participants with a sense of warmth and joy of Christmas.
