North Little Rock distinguishes itself from its sister city Little Rock with facilities such as the 71 stores in McCain Mall, the 1575 square acres of Burns Park and our very own Northeast High School. These were all very much a part of our community in North Little Rock. Students had no trouble finding things to do in NLR, if anything there were to many choices. The cruising crowd wasted gal- lons upon expensive gallons of gas when trying to decide which of the fast food dinners would fit their fancy or which of the six theaters they would see the latest flick in. Yet, what would a community be without a community center, and NLR had a dandy one. For reasonable fees members of the community were able to take lessons in everything from judo to belly dancing. Yes, our town of 19.20 square miles may not be New York, or Chicago but it's our Home Sweet Home.

Council raises money for homecoming activities Selling parking lot spaces, spon- soring buses to away games, and running the concession stand at basket- ball games were a few of the fund- raising projects held by Student Coun- cil. Most of the money raised went to finance homecoming activities, the Council's major project. A petition plan was devised by the Student Council in an effort to better represent the student body. Mrs. Sally Laidlaw said that the plan allowed students the opportunity to state their opinions and help deter- mine student council activities. The 31 member council circulated petitions through the student body to get different views. The ideas were used by the Council in making deci- sions such as selecting the homecoming theme and making dance plans. Student Council helped to promote spirit by putting on skits at several pep assemblies and by sponsor- ing a pep breakfast before the jon- esboro game.
