Stop the Presses! Few people at Pinson understand what a deadline is, and the pressures that go along with it. However, members of the Valley Echo Staff are all experi- enced in the meeting of deadlines as they endeavor to make each issue of the Valley Echo better than before. Putting up with all of their frenetic activities during the year is Mrs. Joy Dem- ing. (Far left) Under her guidance the Echo Staff explores new realms of jour- nalism as they publish interesting and sometimes zany articles concerning the activities of Pinson Valley. Far Right: T Rhue — Editor. K Dykes — Business Manager. P Glasscock — Co-Editor. K Gowdy — Business Manager, R Broome — Photographer Bottom: R Presley, P Glasscock, V Ramey, K Gowdy, T Catalino, R Broome, T Rhue, N Self, T Parish, R Roberls, J.

Robert Brooks and Rusty Wynn, who are responsible for the Sports section, enjoy relaxing by going to the disco. Because this mood often hits them during Annual Staff they create their own by locking some unlucky staffers into the Annual Staff room, and flicking the lights on and off. Any knowledgeable staff member will immediately plead for mercy from the torturous singing and dancing to We Are Family. Possibly our most serious person is Rebecca Brooks. She had to get her Annual Staff period fourth, because no one could stand to be that serious. We won ' t tell anyone you are addicted to Harlequin Romances. By the way, are you through with Love Passed Me By yet? If you want to know an odd nick- name for something, ask Steve Adams what a Ninner is. When Steve is not calling someone a Nin- ner or Ninnae he manages to work on Classes with Rebecca. Laurie McGahey, who worked on Faculty, proved that her best asset was writing. We think Laurie ' s first deadline has altered her brain per- manently. Every so often she is heard to mutter where ' s my picture of Miss Sanders . . .? Valerie Prewitt, who works on Notables, is a very fashion con- scious girl. She often can ' t decide what to wear, which explains her wearing five layers of clothing on occasion. She peels them off, period by period. By Annual Staff period she lets it all hang out. Although she denies it, the real reason Gina Frongillo is on the Chieftain Staff is to get her picture in the yearbook. Really Gina, don ' t you have enough already? Oddly enough, Gina works on Notables. The long hours of hard work that these individuals have put in have drawn us all closer. We hope that you will enjoy looking at this book as much as we enjoyed creating it. SONJA BAUCOM
