Q nun I is Q' M , X 'W 4 7 WDW' . 45 'if' A, . S- -:W printin news he Bull's Eye staff was ready to display journalistic talents. The most difficult part of journalism is organization 'i meeting deadlines, and keeping the spirit of the class alive,', commented Stephanie Lee, Junior. All stories were due at least one and a half to two weeks after they were assigned, which gave reporters time to get in- terviews and complete stories. Sometimes it was really dif- I l , l. if-dv, .4 ficult to keep the pace of writing stories all the time, but after a while you learn not to procrastinate and you get the hang of things. said junior Isabella Moy. Stories were typed into a computer, then printed out. After this, the staff completed their pages. On the last day of the deadline, the staff sometimes stayed until 7:00 pm in order to finish the paper. I'll never forget those nights of rushing and last minute typos and just about everything. But all in all, I think this year BuIl's Eye staff worked well under pressure, said Romina Cabudolj Bull's Eye wasn't just all writing, there were many pictures that needed the attention of good photographers. Almost all of the photography was also done by the BuII's Eye staff. l thought throughout the year, we had great photographers in Bulls Eye, commented Senior Matt Orozco. Once things get going, everthing runs real- - ly smoothly, but it often means time after school to get things just right, said junior Stephanie Lee. 2 ,i T l Qi I i I t li X ll - 1 4 S41-A Pwf O orgonizationsfbulfs eye 3 TEAMWORK - Mr. Joe Moran and'Romina Cabudol work together to solve a pw' blem.

Many people -thought this was a once-a-year thing, to be received at the Yearbook Sign- ing Party. In actuality it was a long, drawn out process needing the whole year to complete. Perhaps the most trying part of the yearbook was deal- ing with deadlines. A lot of work was needed for each page, and to get all this work in by a specific date was sometimes difficult. Other problems resulted when staff members had to deal with uncooperative or unavailable people. They also had to deal with procrastination, that disease that always seemed present when it's needed least. Also, the yearbook staff had to deal with a problem uni- que to this staff. It had to deal with a new and unproven ad- visor, Tony Kuns. Kuns had taught for 14 years, but had never been a yearbook advisor before. But things went well. As senior Frank Fedail com- mented, He's got a promising future. That is not to say yearbook was all work, many ways to relieve stress were tried. Some of the more effective ways were having deadline parties and playing football. Also, the yearbook staff got together at Christmas for a gift ex- N 1' change and a party. Editor Collette Martin who was a senior, 3 summed up the year by saying, lt's been a year of adjustment and change for all of us, but all of the frustrations and long hours have been worth it. i J i 1 yearbook organizations 69

EDITING - Senior y ' Jonathon Boswell reviews 51 submitted poems with Carlene Brown, advisor. Boswell worked to publicize e the Calliope contest N throughout the year. months of ths here are many different types of calendars - male calendars, female calendars, teddy bear calendars, and kitten calendars. Now, there is a new calendar - the Calliope calendar. Calliope was a literary magazine which published students' poetry, short stories, art work, and photography. They tried a new concept with the magazine which was making it into a calendar. Each month a contest was held in order to encourage students to submit their work. The con- test always had a theme that had to be met. For example, in January, the theme was the Greek god Pan. Since Pan was the god of humor and practical jokes, all entries for that month had to be comical. The prize awarded was 32000. I think the concept of having a contest is a great idea because it really encourages people to submit work that they normally wouldn't have submitted, said Jonathon Boswell, senior. The winners of the contestwere decided by the Calliope staff. All entries were reviewed by the reading committee and a winner was then chosen. The contest was both an exhilarating and gratifying experience. It was also hectic and pressure producing, but it did help to br- ing in more material. I sense more en- thusiasm because of the contest. The money was definitely a major source of motiva- tionli' concluded Carlene Brown, advisor. colliopeforgamzotions 71
