Printed on the duplieating machine in the book warehouse, the paper often failed to rome out because of mechanical failures.

Under the direction of Mrs. Mary Ellen Eggleston and Delores Buflo. editor, the newspaper became a lithographed feommercially printed! publication during the second semester. A name was selected by the student body. The paper is called l'Spartan Shield. Paoifit-a's first yearbook, 'Spartan '56, was published under the direction of the yearbook class.
