Sandites Put Writing Skills To Work. Students learning the basics of journalism performed a libel trail in which they illustrated the laws dealing with the freedom of the press vs. Oklahoma libel laws. Other projects included class advertising projects, public relations gimmicks and television news broadcasts. For those who were interested in poetry, short stories and plays, the creative writing course gave them the opportunity to display their writing talents. The fourteen seniors developed original literary contributions and entered many national contests. College-bound senior English classes, taught by Mrs. Sherry Morgan, wrote the dreaded term papers over English authors. They also learned the basics of writing expository themes. Mood change writing in Mrs. Marsha Ritter's class changed the routine of classroom procedure. Often the teacher transformed the atmosphere of her room and assigned students writing projects to reflect the feeling established by the change. The importance of the student's environment affected their feelings and moods, stated Mrs. Ritter. The Red Badge of Courage is a fantastic bedtime story, it puts you to sleep quick, said Mary Robertson concerning the juniors' study of the novel which presented an interesting subject to some and a boring subject to others. The book was taught by Mrs. Muehlberg and Mrs. Million to their college-bound English classes. The magazine and newspaper classes, under the supervision of Mrs. Laura Schaub, were responsible for the school news publications. The staff encountered some difficulty in getting the news out due to communication problems with the school print shop, but during the second nine weeks things smoothed out a lot, stated Jill Burger, Sandtonian co- editor. 55... f-?Z..,...,, SE T H 3 in A KXVV M W A K I WHERE ARE THOSE HEADLINES? - The WHERE'S THE DUMMY? - Mrs. Schaub and her fourth hour staff begins to lay out the Traffick second hour newspaper staff paste up on dummy magazine. sheets.
