Tricks of the Trade underway even after the editors and staff had been desig- nated. First, the design and color for the cover were chosen. Then the overall plan of the book was carefully worked out. According to plan, Neal Smoycr. editor, assigned to a student a certain section to organize, so that the labor of the staff was somewhat divided. Preparing copy, proof- reading copy, proofreading, making dummies, and correct- ing details became constant tasks of the yearbook staff. Photographing all important events and phases of school life was the difficult job of Bob Koch and Bob Mason. Getting in practice for next year, Dick Faston also took many of the photos. Printing of the Red and Black was done by the Allen Press. The three boy who took picture for the paper and the annual: Dick Ea ton, Bob Koch, and Bob Ma on.

Future Journalists Learn Mr. John Clifford, Advisor Journalistic work has included both the publishing of 27 issues of the school newspaper ami the 1953 yearbook. While some students de- voter! their time to one publication, others worked equally hard on both. The first function, that of issuing The budget each week, began immediately after classes were organized and continued throughout the year. Regular heats were assigner! most students to check for possible stories, and everyone was granted the opportunity to write. Every pa|»er included all types of articles straight news stories, features, and edi- torials. Much of the paper’s success can be credited to the many hours of overtime work done by Sharon Tripp and Marianne Anderson, co-edi- tors selected by John W. Clifford. The energetic efforts of the adver- tising managers, business managers, proofreaders, and staff reporters constituted the other necessary parts of the journalistic framework. The second function, preparing the yearbook, was slow in getting Neal Smoyer teenier), editor of the Red and Black, and his assistants.
