J. DAFVDD HAWKINS Editor, First Semester With the Reveille Editor Turnover of staff personnel represented a real problem for The Daily Reveille, with anyone who stayed through the whole school year being con- sidered a bonafide veteran. Dafydd Hawkins con- tinued in his position as editor which he had as- sumed on the 1950 Summer Reveille. He finished Beverly Laskey and Bob Langhart. ERIC SMITH Editor, Second Semester his schooling in February and Eric Smith was pushed up to the top spot on the staff from news editor. Charles Magee was all ready to slip into the managing editor ' s chair in the fall when a call from the Navy beckoned him back into the service. Fred Kobler was appointed managing editor, a post he held during both semesters. Filling out the original staff were Turner Spencer, Bill Lynch and Smith as news editors, Robert Langhart as sports editor and Kathryn Norwood as society editor. Norwood resigned early in the fall to take a job on the Morning Advocate, and Beverly Laskey was chosen to replace her. Bob Langhart was graduated in February and Joe Gravelle took over as sports editor, while at the same time Delos Knight replaced Smith as a news editor. Finally, Turner Spencer got the last word in by resigning in March to join Norwood at the Advocate. Bill Hair succeeded her as news editor, and from here on the staff remained intact until summer.
