VERTA COX Sponsor 1960 TOTEM STAEE MEMBERS PRACTICE HIGH TIME for planning the next annual always comes early, and days rush by so fast, the staffers face publishing time with deadline fever. It all starts with talk sessions about themes, and cover, and money. Staff positions are chosen in the Spring, and plans are laid for getting started with some experience by going off to the University to journalism Institute the earliest 1 ss' 'le date after the close of school. ' f. f During the rest of the summer the wheels begin to turn with seniors checked in for photograph appointments and the staff holding business meet- ings in the empty school house. Before long with the opening of regular classes the financial budget takes top billing, and each member works long hours after school and hard to reach his goal in number of patrons contacted and contracted to share the CHS yearbook. I HAVE IT . . . the word I hope, says Phyllis Schilling, editor- in-chief, as she tries to fit the word to the picture and make another section ready for the publisher. MONEY HANDLERS are these. Roni, business manager, balances a 510,000 budget while Susie Barnes, advertising manager, ponders ways to make this possible. I S F ! A I Z1 i K . P -A X XX- v , .Y N--. T Y MOT- M

CI-HEFTAIN STAFF GOES TO PRESS Even though there were quite a few problems at the begin- ning of the year things ran pretty smoothly as the staff mem- bers became more organized. After the daily tasks that go into editing a school news- paper there was time left for fun. Late in March the staffers played host to a tea for the newspaper staffs from five other Tampa high schools. This affair not only created an opportu- nity for the journalists to become acquainted with one an- other, but was also the scene of exchanging ideas and opinions between the schools. Not even the mysterious robbing of the Chieftain safe kept the presses from rolling or the latest news from the hands of CHS. FINANCIAL BOOKS are straightened by Mary Loetell, business manager, while managing editor, Janie Ertzberger, confirms in- formation for an important story.

Picture schedules are made, set, and broken. Informa- tion about all club, department, and extra-curricular activities is compiled, the personnel ble is made ready, and the work of laying-out the book so as best to depict events and people around Chamberlain gets under way. Progress seems slow, problems have to be solved, and the dead- lines met. But . . . in between term papers, Panorama, conventions, fairs, and the piles of homework, the time is for completing pages and sending them oh' to the printer come the proofs, the finished books, and the end of the of work, but lots of fun make this work on the annual to remember with pleasure, HONEST NOW, do you think thot will work? asks Elizabeth Cummings, loy- out editor, os Glenn Mclhheus, sports editor measures o picture for cropping.
