FROM THE STAFF ROOM , It was Casey who suggested the title early in the fall. A class vote decided the dedication. It looked like a tie, but the faculty won out. What made things look difficult at first was the decision to have original drawings or none at all. nWell, I can't draw, but I'll try,n said Shirley after three months of drafting had failed to produce an artist. Then somebody wanted logs on the pages and Boemans didn't have any on the place. Tracing that first design on a stencil was a task, in spite of sage suggestions from the other seniors who had never seen it done. Pete finally came through with a foot- ball story. Then we had to wait for the rest of the news to happen. On March first, the work began. nMerle and Fritz, you can run the mimeograph, can't you?n nSure.n They had never touched the thing before, but you wouldn't know it. Soon they could mend stencil breaks with Scotch tape in a process that ought to be patented. About this time, Mary Alice, who had offered to be typ- ist, decided to have her appendix out before play practice started. But Corky stepped in in corking way and ever sumo has been typing stencils hours each day. In fact, she still is. On March 5, the photographer made his first visit. Ap- pointments lastcd from 8:50 a. m. to 5:00 p. m. Forty girls in gym class demonstrated their ability to neither speak nor move for two whole seconds. The sales campaign began on March 22. In one week the Kimmel-Kroll team had reached their quota--over 100 books sold. uNever give the prospect a chance to answer,n says Hank. The subscription price pays for the picturesg the ads take care of everything else. When the business manager landed a full page ad, we almost celebrated. Chuck wrote sports. Fritz wrote everything. Freida wrote, mimeographed, and supervised. keith began the hand- lettered pages and the senior features. Merle collected senior statistics. At the ond of March, twenty pages were ready.
