YEARBOOK STRUGGLES TO BE A LITTLE BIT BETTER It seemed almost as if the yearbook was headed for disaster after our senior editor quit. Then began the predicament of looking for a new edi- tor, which resulted in co-editors Laurie Major and Edie Bryant. There was minimal turn out at the first meetings and, unfortunately, only minimal accomplishments. The first deadline was a fren- zied mess! Half of the layouts hadn’t been assigned and the other half weren’t done. Adam Wolle had been sick in January and February and pictures hadn’t been taken of events that had hap- pened during those months. Laurie had the senior direction to do and spent most of her time run- ning around collecting senior paragraph informa- tion while still trying to maintain her above aver- age grades. Edie was in charge of assigning the layouts. It ended up that Cletis Johnson, Wendy McLennan, and Susie Morris had never done lay- outs before. Ronda Wicks and Debbie Potts had only the yearbook class experience (which did help). The other members of the staff were never to be seen in the yearbook room. Of course, when deadline day came Ronda didn’t show up, Cletis, Wendy and Debbie hadn’t done their layouts and Carolyn Ventura managed to ask a dozen ques- tions about everything! After a day of Edie’s shouting and Laurie’s mess all over the place, no one wanted to work in the yearbook room so Edie and Kim Stein finished the remaining layouts. Kim was a great help to the yearbook, even if she had to do a few of her layouts more than once. She could always be counted on when a layout had to be done — fast. The last deadline was not as frantic as the other two, but the atmosphere and the clowning around made it almost impossible to get anything done. Although the deadlines were hectic, we got through them with little mishap. Each deadline was on time, but we would never have made it without the help of Kathy Long, Donna Sakers, Karen Wicks, Dawn McLaughlin, and Lisa Lutzet- sky, who we wish to thank for their fast fingers. Also special thanks to Robert Ventura, who did great work in the darkroom. it warn Pak. aac - a : TS TOP: Co-editor Laurie Major manages to work on her senior layout that she left until deadline day or D-day.

This year, after much discussion, it was agreed that, in order to eliminate some of the debt, senior color would have to be omit- ted from the book. This decision was met with much protest from the seniors. It was decided that senior color would be included if the senior class could help pay for the color. Ms. Felice attended a senior class meeting and asked for their help, but they responded that, since the senior year is an expensive year, the sen- ior class could not afford it. Once again senior color was dropped. After this unfortuante decision, the yearbook staff worked hard on a variety of fund raisers to work off the debt and start fresh for next year. The annual Yearbook Dance was a huge success. The candy sales, concession stand sales at baseball, softball, and tennis games, and the current stationery sales were also helpful in removing the debt. Unfortunately, the 1980 junior high yearbook has put the yearbook in debt once again. ABOVE: Ronda Wicks takes a lunch break after finally arriving for deadline day.
