Brown 'zaif '12 Another year of school life recorded! Our editor-in-chief, Betty Jane Tyner has introduced some new notes of inform- ality in the 1940 Trail. Each member of the staff co-operated willingly to publish another successful year book. The busi- ness staff headed by lion Heath and his assistant, Dick Ellsworth, functioned smoothly and efficiently. The subscription campaign opened With a bang-up performance of Di: Trinkley's Medicine Show advertising that wonderful cure-all, the Trail. After this start circulation manager, Betsy Hansen, went over the top with two hun- dred subscriptions. Senior editor, Harold Daniels, kept his finger on the Senior pulse, Helen Page 28 Goodwill and Jean Perry undertook the job of writing about the undergraduate and organization activities. Lennie Dur- nell chroniciled the athletic events, and Thomas Poquette humor and snap editor contributed spice and life to our book. Then 1l12l,k0-UP editor Jack Bent- ley had the task of assembling' all the contributions of the rest of the staff. June Follett, Elinor Merrick, and Merle Pearson did a mighty fine typing job. Very often we conferred With Miss Hor- ton and Mr. Brown who helped us iron out many of our difficulties.

Sheaff and Ells- worth quite handily won the boyls doubles ehanipionship of the district while Betty Siinodynes and Janice Stover placed third in the girl's doubles. In the same tournament Marina Mayer took third in singles. Last September there was a marked increase in the nuniber of tennis enthusiasts. Although the boys have been definitely organized for some tinie, it was not until the fall of 1939 that the girls forined a regular tennis class. This drew a large number of beginners who are showing considerable promise. VVith all the additional racquet wielders among both boys and girls, Sidney expects to inake a good showing in the spring tournaments.
