Tl1ere's a Long, Long TRAIL a Winding 'Twas the night of the Christmas mixer And all through the schoolhouse, Not a creature was stirring, Not even a mouse. LeRoy Pa Hughes stood watching with fright As Allen Santa Claus Wood filled stockings that night. The l948 Trail came into existence when the senior class voted to have a yearbook. Many people thought it was going to be easy, but they learned differently when they had to put in many hours Working on the Trail, 'l'l1e Trail staff was fortunate to have Miss Dolores Spence for a sponsor as she has had several years experience in serving as adviser for yearbook staffs. At the first meeting loAnn McDonald was elected editorfin-chief and the other staff members were appointed to various duties. The staff members Worked diligently from the beginning to the end of the year. The first big job was making a dummy, a general layout of the Whole book. The task of selling Trails was next, and this proved to be an easy one as most of the students Were as willing to buy Trails as the staff members were to sell them. Staying Within the budget proved to be one of the main problems. The high prices almost made the cost of the Trail prohibitive, but the staff members bustled about and worked out new Ways to make money. The last few Weeks in April were hectic ones as the staff proof read final copy from the printer. Everyone sighed with relief when the last article had been returned. Besides publishing the Trail, the staff spon- sored a free Christmas mixer and a snapshot contest for the benefit of the students. The '48 Trail staii listens intently as Editor-in-Chief IoAnn McDonald outlines the plans for the coming year. STANDING: Bill Lea, Francis Fisher, Erwin Kriesel, Miss Dolores Spence.

The opening movement of i'Melody in F was nearly completed before the X-Ray began to record the school sonata. The reason was that busy newspapers felt they could not take the extra printing job. Finally, however, the Fairbury News took pity on the harried staff, and record cutting was begun about the mid- dle of October. Meanwhile, the senior English classes under Miss l-leral Hedgcock were being initiated into the mysteries of journalism. First came the me- chanics, such as getting all essentials into the first sentence of a story and writing i'3U at the end. Later came the delicate nuances of the artftempering the truth with charity and still making it interesting. After the first hectic week of trying to beat a deadline, the staff felt rather weak and flabby. Later on they learned that it's the steady grind that makes putting out the paper a lot of work. They learned, of necessity, to be versatile W everyone did everyones work. And they ex- perienced the thrill that comes from busting into print. That a full set of records was completed was due to the patient work of the senior English classes and the staff, the courtesy of the Fairbury News, and the phenomenal good humor of Miss l-ledgcock. You can always find freshmen around the coke machine. Bob Hammond and Iesse Medina answer Mary Mitchell's questions while Kathryn Fitch interviews Marian Rossmiller, Lois Zabel and Marian Shultz. Tell Me the Tales Setting out to get some of those much-needed contracts. the X-Ray ad salesmen ston to toss us a friendly glance.
