While increasing its size and ornateness to the greatest level ever, the i960 Sceptre, l72 pages strong, retained its nominal cost to students and faculty at SA. The many improvements incorporated into this Sceptre were due to a large extent to the financial assistance of House of Representatives, who spon- sored a surfing movie for the student body that took in several hundred dollars which was ap- plied onthe annual. One of the improvements, a padded cover, was again employed after a lapse of one year. For the first time in school history, an originally- designed cover was drafted by an MHS artist, Bob Wright, who also designed the individual division pages. Unity within the sections was strengthened by the use of a running theme throughout the book. Veteran staffers such as Ron Jacobs, Mel Man- del, Olenda Carter, Tom Barnes and Connie Delany worked with a host of newcomers and the staff advisor, Dick Wynne, to produce a superior Sceptre. ln another change from last year, the photography was done almost entirely -by pro- fessional photographers. Regular classroom meetings provided time to complete much of the work, but special meetings after school, on weekends and during vacations sometimes became necessary to meet the frequent deadlines. Utilizing a record budget, the annual staff had enough money left over to publish a 12-page summer supplement which was free to all Sceptre buyers.

Each edition brought the student body up-to-date news and sports coverage, not to mention some ex- cellent features and editorials. Page make-up showed refreshing originality as the experienced editors, Gregg Peterson, fall semester, and Mel Man- del, spring semester, used different effects from issue to issue. The page editors kept the copy rolling in from their talented staffers, whose stories continually showed im- provement as the year went on. The welcome aid of the first-year iourna- lism students was enlisted during the second semester, with many of them showing future promise as writers and editors. Several of the active staffers show- ed a flare for more creative ventures, and diverted some of their time to contributing to Morningside's first campus magazine, Euglena, pub- lished in May. Journalism press days were another activity which drew the attention of manager, Sharon Loughborough, distribution manager, Bev Bevans, exchange STANDING, left to right: Dick Wynne ladvisorl, editor.
