i Nuntius — A Nonstop Job Over the summer four members of the Nuntius staff attended a yearbook work- shop at Roanoke College where activities for yearbook week were planned. When school opened, ads totaling $2800 had been sold and plans had been made for the format of this book. Yearbook week rolled around the last of September. A Powder Puff football game between junior and senior girls started the activities. On the second day a Hairy Leg Contest with male faculty contestants took place at 8 a.m. Can we ever forget Mr. Smith’s sleezy entrance? A tacky dress contest for students and faculty concluded the activities. Boy, did Mr. Lange surprise us with his outfit! Yearbook week ended with an assembly in which “the Reverend Ernest Hainsley” urged all sisters and brothers to purchase their 1982 Nuntius. His remarks were tak- en to heart as 500 committed to purchase “Reverend Ernest Hainsley,” better known as Greg Pribble, urges brothers and sisters to purchase the 1982 Nuntius. a Nuntius in the week that followed.

Not until March could editor-ih-chief Cheryl Childress relax as final proof pages rolled in for approval. By then it was time to begin thinking about spring sports pic- tures for the 1983 Nuntius and the non stop job of school coverage.
