many of the budding writers. Most of the staff took part in the El Camino College Journalism Day in March, which included writing contests, in- formative group discussions, and tours of the newspaper facilities there. The writing contest brought special recognition to the Lion's Roar as Gregg Peterson won first place in sports writing. Gregg is our first newspaperman to take top honors in a contest of this type, and it illus- trates the remarkable development of the newspaper staff this year, com- mented Dick Wynne, staff advisor. Frosting was added to the cake as Norm Newman took a third place in news writing, while Mel Mandel re- ceived an honorable mention in edi- torials. A limited number of students also participated in USC's Press Day, which saw four MHS publication writers in- itiated into Quill and Scroll Society. Several others attended the NAJD writing contest held at Alhambra. The Annual Staff Breakfast, held at the close of the year in June, hon- ored the outstanding writers with awards for their performances. Cleveland, Adele Atlas, Joann Cole.

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.
