1969 RAZORBACK Tommie Kay Ebbert Co-Editor T. J. Patterson Co-Editor About the Damn Staff . . . With only a few hundred changes from the ’68 RAZORBACK, it’s difficult to decide where to begin. When a Greek and an Independent team up to co¬ edit a book, a certain amount of change is inevitable — especially when both are female. Last spring when we announced our staff, there were many dropped jaws when Mack McLarty, past ASG president, headed the business staff. Mack selected Randy Riddle as his assistant. Then early in the fall, Random House extended Mack a more star-studded opportunity and Jane caught Randy. They departed, thus giving us our first opportunity for promotion on the staff. Steve Crow, former associate editor, ade¬ quately filled both vacancies. Using the most modern equipment available (in 1910), our photography staff was able to produce over 1,000 pictures, thus achieving miracles. Gary Larsen, our chief photographer, sacrificed many interesting BA classes and much of the beauty rest which he so enjoys. Although Rick, John and Danny fell by the wayside, Doug Frank showed both stamina and courage in staying with us as Gary’s assistant. Steve Crow Business Manager 246

Since Linda Irene Young served the previous year as associate editor, we appointed her to the same posi¬ tion with confidence — or maybe it was over-con¬ fidence. Photo editor Martha Lynn Wilson aided Linda on deadline days and brought sunshine into the gray¬ ness of Hill Hall. Debbie Wilson, our executive secretary, came to us in her innocence as a typist. Recently she was appointed the book’s co-editor for the coming year. Working with Debbie was Judy Garrett, also a secretary, Our Grand ’Ole Lady. After searching many months for an Introduction writer, we found one in a UA graduate student, Dwain Cromwell. Dwain did a tremendous job and we cannot thank him enough for an excellent beginning and for meeting his deadline. Next in line for praise is Monte Cable, our Military section editor. Monte was sent to us through the Military Department, proving that the Army does have something going for it. Chip Cooper, our Man About the Office, headed the Organization section. In spite of communication problems with the local photographer and staff deser¬ tion, Chip was able to go home every weekend and finish the section. Gail Boyd wrote the copy for this section.
