H unting for missing pictures and struggling to create interesting copy were common frustrations for the 1976 Prospectus staff. The 1975 edition of Madison's yearbook achieved a second place rating in national competition. This assurance, along with the experi- ence of six returning staff members, helped with the development and production of new techniques. Nine of the new staffers attended the summer photography workshop. Interrupting summer school classes and summer ASB meetings to take pictures offered them the training needed to become aggressive and tal- ented staff photographers. Learning how to write creative copy and using a variety of layout styles throughout the book were goals of co-editors Diana Garner and Martha Clark. The girls improved their knowledge of such techniques at a summer workshop at UCSD. Madison hosted a work- shop which included many Southern California schools. Even with all the background and training, many problems still arose. Can I crop off feet and how do you spell majorette? were some of the minor difficulties encountered. With cameras constantly breaking, photog- raphers seemed to have more headaches and hassles than ever before. Group shots dis- appeared the day before a deadline, and pho- tographers were forever searching for Miss Kirtland and the keys to the room. All of this chaos usually occurred twenty minutes after a picture was scheduled to be shot! Birthday celebrations, a Christmas party and the annual staff luncheon softened the pain of spending Saturdays and vacations working in room401. The'76staff hadstudents with unique personalities and diverse interests. Skiers, a tennis player, cheerleaders and an AFS student from Belgium were a few who added their individuality to the book. Outside interests sometimes proved to be a hindrance in meet- ing deadlines. Turning pages in at the last possible minute didn't seem to bother any- one ... except the advisor and the two editors. 138 Prospectus
