One of those changes was the electing of executive officers instead of having full student council meetings. By doing this, they hoped to eliminate the hassle of mass meetings where nothing much seemed to be accomplished. The executive officers were Ken Harris, president; Jill Coffman, vice-president; Susan Meldrum, secretary; Roberta Wilson, treasurer; Bruce Schroeder, vicetreasurer; Bill Mast, sergeant-at-arms; and Ray Egelhoff, parliamentarian. MR. LOVELL listens to Ken Harris during a student council meeting, while the rest of the members relax. STUDENTS COLLECT the decals they were assigned to sell.

Many teachers and students found bikes, walking and bus transportation had to replace the ever-present cars as tanks were drained dry. The Patricia Hearst kidnapping, the Mid-East war, Ilenry Kissinger, and Watergate occupied the front pages of newspapers during the spring of 1974.

The yearbook staff was under the guidance of Jill Coffman as chief editor and Laurie Summers as photography editor.
