Amid somber predictions such as the Kawayan's go- ing to be a big flop , this year's staff worked tirelessly to present what they hoped would be the best yearbook ever. The work was divided among the 'various editors who were: Edwina Litwin, Editor-in-Chiefg Chuck Har- rison and Nancy Howe, Sportsg Melinda Schultz, Photo- graphyg Valerie Larsen, Advertisingg Ann Daniel, Activ- itiesg Helen Klar, Gradesg Keith Claxton and Echard Bull, Circulation. Lay-out editors Linda McJennett, Gretchen Schulz, Susan Jones, and Candace Gibbs decided to put emphasis on originality and variety in their page lay-outs. A mong the new features this year are senior Coats-of-Arms , candid activity shots, and three-quarter introductory spreads. Many different type sizes were used to increase page interest and eye appeal. It was decided to include coior plates of typical Philippine scenes, too, since many students are in the Islands only temporarily and would appreciate these mementos in future years. The able assistence of Mrs. Street and Mr. Rojas at printshop added to this year's hoped-for-success. Advertising staff members include Vicky Schultz, Managerg Valerie Larsen, Claire Rittenhouse and Noelle Ayers. Not pictured are Leata Thomas and Kaye Fisher. Sharon Stewart, Jackie Liss- ner, Jan Hamilton and Photo- graphy co-editors Helen Klar and Melinda Schultz look over possible pictures for this year's Kawayan.

E117 Prosecuting Attorneys Gibbs and Litwin listen intently to the defense attorney's cross-examination of a witness. COURT In the Student Court's second year of operation, it ren- dered decisions which will become guides for the future. Though it has operated successfully, it cannot yet be regarded as a fully effective part of student government. Revisions of the A.S.S.B.A. Constitution initiated this year wili enable the Court to become a more integral part of the A. S. government in future years. Keith Claxton presided over all Court proceedings. Priscilla Litwin and Eckard Bull were Associate Judges, and Terry Kleeman served as Alternate. They dealt speedily and efficiently with infractions of the Student Code of Behavior, which was put into effect last year. Sober-faced Student Court Justices offer grim prospects to errant students. From left to right are Bailiff Hank Hartline, Judge Eckard Bull, Chief Justice Keith Claxton, Judge Priscilla Litwin and Alternate Terry Kleeman.
