BLACKHAWK Staff Members Attend Convention In order to publish a paper with the advantage of being better in- formed, several staff members of the Blackhawk attended the Na- tional Scholastic Press Association convention in Chicago last Novem- ber. Here they took short courses conducted by outstanding men in the field of newspaper work — edi- tors, educators, executives. Knowing that many of the sub- scribers are interested in stage and screen personalities, the Blackhawk tried and succeeded in interviewing Francis Lederer when he was in Davenport. Quill and Scroll Chapter Organized A chapter of Quill and Scroll, the international honor society for high school journalists, was organ- ized during the Spring semester by Mr. Hach. Charter members were initiated into the Dr. Frank Luther Mott chapter at the publications’ banquet June 1. Deadline days often found the paper in the process of being writ- ten as late as 8 o’clock at night. Since all work and no play is not a good policy, the staff compensat- ed with several informal “blow- outs” this spring — the best of which was a pot luck supper held at Credit Island with the yearbook staff. Blackhawk Hated as Excellent” The Blackhawk has been award- ed another outstanding rating, “First Class—Excellent” bestowed by the National Scholastic Press Association. There were only three schools in the Blackhawk division (1600-2500 students) who outdid the Blackhawk for all around good journalism during the first semes- ter. The N. S. P. A. is an organiza- tion that exists for the sole pur- pose of raising the standards of high school journalism by author- itative criticisms with suggestions for improvement. The Blackhawk also expects a superior rating from Quill and Scroll which will not be announced until next fall.

THE Journalists Find New Advisor When the newly appointed lilack- hawk staff returned to school a week before school officially started last fall in order to put out an early edition, it found a new facul- ty advisor, Mr. Hach. The Mackhawk soon got under- way to report all the high school activities m a manner that im- proved with each succeeding issue. For Homecoming, the staff put out an extra that was distributed to all the students. Very unusual in the high school newspaper field, the Blaekhawk issued two full pages of pictures, used large color cuts, and put out several six-page edi- tions.
