WASP STAFF WHILE HARD AT WORK , i as-,,,-fy '19 Wasp Staff Are there any dummies ready to be stenciled? asked Miss Schaffer, Wasp Staff instructor, at the first of the year. I am! nonchalantly answered one of the staff members. Really, though, the Wasp Staff has proven itself to be made of more than dummies during 1949-'50, The Wasp was published monthly during the year and has proved to be a valuable part of TUHS life. The staff positions were rotated every two months, so as to give all staff members varied experiences. The staff packed bag and baggage and attended the first annual convention of the Arizona interscholastic Press Association, November 12, 1949, which was a great help toward its goal of raising the quality of journalistic rrxaterial in our school paper. Wasp Staff members for 1949-'50 are: P. Castro D. Contreras R. Tidwell B. Stevenson E. Escarcega F. Ramirez M. Kern 24 E. Castaneda B. Costello V. Gradillas B. Hitt
