o Time To Pla The Student Council has a variety of obligations. Without them, special occasions activities and assemblies would not take place. They met once a month to help provide activities to promote school spirit. A creative and responsible Student Government is behind every successful student body, stated adviser, Mrs. Hibberts. They had a very successful year because of the dedication and devotion of every member and officer. The Student Council has really come alive in the past few years. This year we are doing more things and doing them better than ever, said Jack Ledford. For the first time ever, the Student Council sponsered a Homecoming assembly and a Parade of cars Homecoming night, and changed methods for the way things were done. I enjoy Student Council because it gives me a chance to give something back to a school that has given so much to me, stated William Summey. Student Council follows a strict constitu- tion and when members don't abide by the rules specified, they have to face the demerit System. This is made up of demerits which are given for not attending out-of-school meetings and not working in the concession stand. Eight demerits is the limit and when members reach nine, they will be released from duties. To relieve the burden of duties given to the Student Council, the Student Council formed the Inter-club Council. It is made up of all the vice-presidents of every club in the school. They met monthly to discuss ways to at solve many of their club's problems. When asked how the council has solved some of these problems, the Sponser, Mrs. Hibberts, replied, It has led to more organization, so clubs will not be having meetings or projects at the same time. The Interclub Council accomplished this by placing a large calendar outside the Student Council office where meetings and projects could be scheduled to prevent them from overlapping. When asked how the Council has united the clubs, Melissa Hamby replied, All the clubs have joined together to work on many projects for the benefit of the school. For example, each club donated money to help with homecom- ing expenses and boosted school spirit by helping to sponser Spirit Week along with the float parade during the pep rally. To prevent burdening one club with too many responsibi- lities, the Interclub Council assigned each club a week to raise the flag each day and a night to run the concession stand during a home basketball game. The Interclub Council also organized for the clubs to donate toys for the Student Council's Christmas project for needy children. Leigh Anne Price summed it up when she stated, The clubs working together have made many school projects more efficient and organized. ' ' Carla Abemathy agreed, The Council has been successful. The Interclub Council has aided the school by uniting the majority of the students. Everyone has been very coopera- tiveg therefore, we have been able to accom- plish many things to serve our community and school.

Joey Watts, president, stated, The Homecoming dance was very enjoyable and also very profi- table.

Mary Beth Best feels, The Monogram Club is a club for lettermen and since I lettered I thought it would be a good club to fellowship with other lettennenf' Bus drivers also enjoy meeting together to discuss common problems.
