Action Our life at school was always full of action. We en- tered activities with unsurpassed energy and always had a good time in them. There were organizations, parties, sports, pep rallies, and even studies. Our af- ternoons were taken up with practice for the team or having fun with the rest of the gang, and we spent our weekends at the game, in social events, or catch- ing up on sleep we missed the night before. Some played and some watched, but we all had fun.

Evangelists my Dr. Walter Wilson 70 Wally Howard Dr. Walter Wilson's practical hints for wit- nessing presented us with real challenge and his messages on the love of God in- spired us. Things like his message on be- ing at home in the presence of God stuck, and his stories of actual witnessing amazed us. Wally Howard really made us think with his messages on the Christian life, what it really means, and what it costs to live it. The nightly bull sessions helped us to solve some of our problems as Christians, as we discussed the down to earth prob- lems which we presented. Through his messages, we came to a more thorough understanding of God's love towards us and what it should mean to us in our daily lives. Ss. A S!

Student Council Under Bruce Johnson, the Student Council real- ized many accomplishments. From planning par- ties to decorating the recreation room, every- thing was done in the efficient manner which typified the council's whole organization. The first big project of the year was the sponsoring of a bleacher fund drive which proved successful when three sections of bleach- ers were installed in the gym. Following that, the council planned and organized a terrific Christmas Party and Sadie Hawkins Day. As spring rolled around, Student Council un- dertook the project of decorating and furnish- ing the new recreation room. The result was a beautiful room that everyone enjoys, supplied with ping pong and many other games. The council accomplished many other things such as establishing efficient library and mon- itor systems, planning activities, and taking care of the many small problems of a busy school. 72 .
