The stu- dents often had a hard time getting interviews on time, thus adding de- layed copywriting. Nate Rauba de- scribed the scene as one when ...everybody ' s crazy and running around. The room was buzzing with ac- tivity. Jeano Cales, advisor, who de- scribed herself as . . .an average, bril- liant teacher, can be remembered for quoting, There are no dull stories, just dull writers. Although the staff usu- ally maintained a relaxed and informal atmosphere, Mrs. Cales ' famous say- ing, A story is better never than late, haunted them daily. She had a weird way of getting her point across, com- mented Charles Brodhead. By working on all aspects of the newspaper, each staff member had an important job. Writing copy played an essential part of the operation, as did photography and layout design. First year staffer LeeAnne Reynolds wasn ' t too sure about conducting in- terviews and getting people to talk, she found, Blabbermouths are a bless- ing to journalism. 4 When hectic deadlines come around.

She ' s really working out great, exclaimed Jill Hildreth after just several weeks. Drill participated in many functions including half-time shows, pep rallies, and competitions. An early honor came when the Drill Team placed first against fourteen other schools at the Cal Poly Half-time Tournament. One major function which distin- guished this year from past years was participating in Arlington ' s hosting of the Annual Lester Oaks Parade on No- vember 1st. Jill Martinez.
