Compliments of BLUESTEM STUDENT COUNCIL Leon, Kansas Journalists Felt the Pulse, Reported BHS Happenings First quarter was a trial and error period in the journalism room as beginning journalists began learning the technique of a writer. LION'S ROAR, the bi-weekly newspaper, and the LION'S TALES , BHS yearbook, were written and arranged by the jour nalism class and yearbook staff. It was often a close call for the staff to get the paper out and rolling before the dismissal bell. The Health room at BHS was FRONT - Doris Britt, Kathy Shaffer, Cindy Edwards, Cathy Scovell, Judy Keplar, Diane Gray, Diane Proctor Pat Lowe , Gwen Genter, Debbie McAllister, Mrs. Kay Highbarger, advisor. devoted to the writers for a news room. The ten by ten foot newsroom was lined with ta- bles, typewriters, papers, and other writing aids, leaving only a path for creative writers to do their thing. Gwen Genter and Diane Proc- tor were the co-editors for the LION'S TALES , and Doris Britt was the editor for the LION'S ROAR. All were second year journalism students.
