Jerrilou Herman Circulation Manager sn, Lois Epp ,, Chet Stewart The Senior Class assumed the respon- sibility for producing FOOTPRINTS, since it was discontinued due to a lack of sponsor- ship. A staff was elected by the class, and proceeded to put out a bi-monthly paper, which occasionally came out on time. Sports, general news, and human interest columns brought an over-all view of Academy life both to students and parent subscribers. An excellent football season and numerous school and class activities were among the events which challenged the staff for ample news coverage, and divisional editors responded with interest- ing articles, and also sound devotional thoughts. Reward was found when stu- dents searched their mailboxes, and scan- ned the latest issue of FOOTPRINTS. FOCTPRINTS Compiling Editor, Sally Jo Hoppe, lays out the next issue of Footprints

The first week-end of school the Council had a Student-faculty reception for all the new students and teachers to get acquainted with the returning ones. ln the early fall Student Council sponsored a Re- verse Day Party. The gym was transformed into a Carnival land of Fun, For a change the girls paid the bill and of course none of the boys minded. Right after Christmas vacation was the annual Talent Show. This year it was held at the Jr. High auditorium in Wheaton. lt was definitely a success as never before. Mid-semester brought the second Winter Holiday. This year there was another full day added, packed with skating, skiing and tobogganing. ln March the Student Council sponsored the ban- quet An Enchanted Evening. The dining hall was changed into a Mystic Evening of pink and black. ln the spring the elections for Student Council President next year were spirited and led to a run off vote. Dave Thompson was elected the new pres- ident. The last three weeks of school are always busy but the Council thought an after-dinner baseball tour- nament would deviate from the routine of studies. The tournament was well accepted by the dorm students and proved to be lots of fun. This year was a good year for the Academy Student Council and athough Merold as president did a terrific iob, everyone agrees it was the Lords lead- ing that made it so. 75
