The ECHO Staff Working to produce a unique year- book for Great Millians, the 1971 ECHO staff began plans in the spring of 1970. The Seniors of the 1971 ECHO staff and Mrs. Kharmine Young, advisor, attended two semi- nars in the Washington, D. C., area in early '70 where the members were in- troduced to new dimensions, tech- niques, and ideas. Originality, organization, and the ability to solve layout problems contributed to the new approach in this year's yearbook. Special staff photographers and Mr. Washington from Harris Sz Ewing added to the quality of the pictures. Left: Mrs. Kharmine Young, advisor.
