Top Job Senior Council Provides Leadership Success is a word which seems to be associated with the Senior Council. From the Southern Belle Pageant to the final preparations for prom and graduation, the senior class proved prosperous in council activities. The council brought 81991.89 from the sophomore and junior years. This was combined with the senior earn- ings in preparation for prom. Ap- proximately 85,000 were earned on the Southern Belle Pageant alone. The pageant went great, Steve Litzinger, Senior Council president, said. I feel it was the most suc- cessful pageant ever. More money was made than in previous years. Winding up the pageant, Southern Belle Calendars were sold later dur- ing the year. They were purchased for two dollars each. A new feature was added to the calendars this year with the selling of birthday ads. Students' birthdays were included in the calendar for the cost of one dollar each. Southern Belle was very suc- cessful and the crowd was very ap- preciative of the production, Rob Janes, senior, commented. A new money maker was included in the Senior Council's activities this year. The council served at the Sparks Employee Appreciation Ban- quet in September, along with Northside. Each Senior Council received S750 for its efforts. The dinner worked out very suc- cessfully, C. Ray Baker, Senior Council sponsor, said. The Annual Senior Variety Show was held in April. Students par- ticipated in many types of enter- tainment. Msg! I 6 5 ,- 4 f et 3 0 Wlfdltwtf Senior Council officers Steve Litzinger Brett Alberty emcee the Southern Belle P89 eant.

STEVE LITZINGER, senior I think Senior Council is really great because it gives everyone a chance to work together and to ac- complish goals. It helps you to meet new people and to develop working skills. RACHEL SHAW, senior l enjoy it because I feel it is a worthwhile activity. I like to help out with the council's plans and projects.
