Valencia Staff VALENCIA Are we, the students of this school, so many stuffed owls on a taxidermist's laboratory shelf? The staff of this yearbook resolved that the monotony of stereotype was to be thrown in the ash can tdid they succeed???l and that the 1939 VALENCIA would be different C?l. No more sugary and unnatural copy., conventional layouts or flattering pictures. Definitely not, they decided to be thoroughly unconventional. The staff was organized around an Architect's Braintrustu with Ieanne loyce, the editor-in-chief, driven stark raving mad by uninterested editors. Marilyn Bailey as assistant editor directed activities whenever possible. Gay Thwaite handled the entire senior section with more than average ability. Iunior Editor Florence Clausen penned the first epistle to go to the higher-ups, and for her promptness she was rewarded with several others to write. Shirley Rogers added a none-too-inspiring ditty to the sophomore page, while Virginia Hughes possessed uncanny inability to complete the freshman article. Humor editor, lacquie King, found much enjoyment in her task of listen- ing to the wireless for new C?l jokes. Kathryn Manley, gagster deluxe, was art editor when not contributing supposedly sparkling humor to liven up the staff congregations. Virginia Frinell, her assistant, did all the tedious and usually unappreciated art connected with this yearbook. Peggie Gray, together with Connie Ereydig and Ann Abernathy, expended her energies in the feature di- vision, but was sometimes in the diminutive editor's curly locks. Sports was a two-man, or rather a two-woman, job. Martha Enos, who worked herself into a lather every time she wrote an article, handed in some fine copy, the other, Iayne editor's-stooge Cferrish, not only turned in lively accounts of sports events but also pinch-hit on all sorts of assignments. leanne Clark, business manager, and Marybelle Scott, assistant, put the VALENCIA over with a supercolossal advertising scheme.
