Student Senate Aims to Please When the i974 Student Senate met for their first meeting of the year, they set a goal for themselves. Their mission was to inspire class spirit and participation within the school. Under the competent leadership of senior chairman Dave Verdun, the 21 member council began to plan activities which would help make their goal a reality. Kathy Simms was chosen as treasurer to handle the financial end ofthe plans. Homeroom representatives were elected to improve communication between the student body and the stu- dent government. Soon after this, activities such as Homecoming, Movies, Fall Week and the candy sale started appearing on the agenda. The senate also spon- sored gym nights, dances atter games, spirit halls, the Student Talent Show and class trips. Let it never be said that this year's Senate did not do their best to achieve their goal and promote school unity.

Parlez-Vous Prangais? Habla Espanol? No matter which language you speak, touring in Quebec or Spain is an enioyable experience. Within a week's time the Spain group found that many expressions are international. Along with memories of bull fights, discotheques, and small boutiques, they brought back numerous memories of their new-found amigos. A week had never passed so fast! Though they were homesick, everyone hated to leave. The French students discovered a new and fasci- nating culture during their stay in Quebec. Although they were only a few hundred miles away, they felt as though they were in the center of the French culture. Elegant dinners in castles, horse and buggy rides, and, getting to know peo- ple of all ages, were lust a few things that made the trip complete. Top: Visiting St. Anne de Beaupre is a sure highlight of the Quebeck trip. left: The Spain group fit right in the Spanish customs at the bullfight. right: Churches of every shape and form were found in Quebec! 76 Activities Y.
