With only three students in the newspaper class and their advisor, Mr. Titus, they spent a great amount of time writing, interviewing and brain- storming new topics to write about in the HEL GAVILANT newspaper and making sure it was out on time. Reporters An Trinh, Cindy 0'Hanlon, and Geoff Conlon, wer'e al- ways on the go to find new topics on fads, trends and students' opinions. The purpose of the newspaper was to have the freedom to let the students give their opinions on the latest news, however, with the 1988 Supreme Court ruling, their freedom was taken away by censor- ship. Usually during the year four newspapers were distribut- ed, Geoff commented, We sometimes have trouble find- ing new topics to write about to enlighten the students and keep their interests on the paper especially when it seems like there isn't anything going on. The newspaper brought attention to new teachers, gave recognition to those with special talents, jobs or hobbies and brought the awareness of new faces to ED . , . This year the Los Angeles Times adopted a new section into their paper with the students input on topics of today, An and Cindy were asked to represent El Dorado. Both enjoyed writing for the Times and thought it gave them a great exper- ience working with a big newspaper. LD After weeks of writing and reporting, the finished prod- uct was completed. A total of four El Dorado newspapers were distributed during the year. Mr. Titus was the newspaper advisor. He guided the hard-working staff through the year. 694590 +1,,Lg.11g..,,6.3FX 9x Qini ' taxa gag' 'Ui f-SU if ' , ,Z ,,7V JW, amiga wczfr , stately if T r 1, . .. -,iagfflw . vi-.,Sr'f' VM V I 0 we , Qretx Qgxyxgg , . --., , I Kggxqeel sm W ,,,,. 7 iflr X leaf .
