Florence Union High School - Saguaro Yearbook (Florence, AZ)

Page 16 text:

A YEAR OF OUR LIFE IS RECORDED The 1973 Saguaro staff prepares and assem- bles a book that pictorially relays the events of the school year. Along with the problems of electing officers, making write-ups and layouts, taking pictures and meeting deadlines, there were also other crises, such as financing the yearbook. The price charged to students for the annual accounts for less than half the total price to the staff. The re- mainder ofthe money has to come from the ad- vertisements sold and through fund-raising projects. Most of the work is enjoyable and often excit- ing, but it is frequently hectic, time is so short, especially when the staff has to meet the dead- lines to our publishers. That is the time when they appreciate the help, understanding, and cooperation of -administration, teachers, and fellow students. As photographer, Mike Pappas takes pictures assigned by the editors, processes film, and prints and enlarges pictures. .1-K-f ' All layouts and copy are checked by Miss Crough, Martha Castro, and Joe Ortiz. Dora Celaya joined the staff at the end of first quarter to assist with layout and typing.

The Gopher Staff of 1973, under the supervision of Mr. David English, strive to benefit the student body at FHS with a more enjoyable and interesting bi-weekly paper. They have worked to printthe views and opinions of the student body as well as to keep students informed of the latest happenings. The '73 class had a regular time slot in the curricu- lum. Their number has increased from last year's 5- member staff to one of twenty. They planned to have guest speakers and to take a field trip to inspect the presses of Casa Grande Dispatch where our local paper is printed. Mr. English, along with Editor-in-Chief Ria Padilla, tried to initiate trading school papers with all the schools in our Conference and with some of the lead- ing high school papers inthe state, an osmosis approach to improving The Gopher. The Staff entered competition in the Arizona State Universities J-CON 1973. The Gopher Staff should be complimented on the fine work they have done this year toward improving our school paper. f ,A ,rt Q . 5. 1 f 11 , .
