Senior Brian Stone was elected Mr. Touchdown for 1978. This year Mr. Touchdown crowned the queen instead of having a student from the student body do it. After the queen was crowned and Mr. Touch- down received his football, the Oakridge Warriors lost the homecoming game to the Pleasant Hill Billies by a score of 28-8.

Student Council Student council becomes major school force The 1978-1979 OHS student council, under the leadership of President Susan Hunsucker, Vice-President Shane Henry, Secretary Scott Keller, Treas- urer Greg Barstad, and Historian Jewel Dahl, held meetings every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 7:45 A.M. This schedule, along with a new student body constitution, was the spark for greater numbers of projects undertaken by the student government. The new constitution provided for a new method of selecting council officers, rather than general student body elections. The student council representatives elected their own leaders. The first major activity of the year was a very successful Mini-Olympics. The Olympics, held in September, consisted ot both indoor and outdoor events. The extended noon hour also allowed for a picnic lunch. Another program instituted by the council was a Student-of-the-Month. A student, selected by the faculty, was honored for his or her participation in school activities, service to the school, citizenship, and academic achievement. The candy store, placed under the total control of the student council, initially operated by Lisa Taylor and Mindy Stafford, and then by Mark Beamer, was the main money making activity of the council. It was estimated that close to three thousand dollars would be made from the store alone. Other activities sponsored by the student council were various assemblies held every two weeks, a taxpayer visitation day, and several dances. Both Mr. Hampton and Mr. Tucker spent many hours as the advisors of the student council. 8 Student Council
