FALL TERM SPRING TERM Editor in chief, George Christensen Marjorie Welter Associates Associates Gloria Shannon Sheldon Toder Norma Eisenberg John Hayes Marjorie Welter David Baker .ludith Salomon Charles Larsen Judith Salomon Charles Larsen Louise Knobel Royal Alvis Faculty Adviser Miss Helen W. Williams The Log is the silent spectator of Curtis. lt goes everywhere, sees everything, and records just about everything it sees. Every activity noted in this book has been written up at some time or other by one of those inquisitive Log reporters. The Log and Yearbook staffs al- ways vie for the honor of being called Mthe hardest working group at Curtism. The first probably has the lead over the latter as it comes out every two weeksg the work of one publication no sooner ends than that of the next begins.
