Coyote Editor Simons takes a pause as assistant Schmidt dreams up copy. Off to a late start, owing to the fact that the editor was not chosen until October, the Coyote got underway with headaches, wor- ries, troubles, and a lot of fun. Pictures for the book had to be taken at odd hours, pho- tographer Walter Gray having to commute from Sioux Falls. Work was organized on a slightly different basis this year. Fifty-six students signed up to be on the staff, and as many of these as possible were given assignments. Thus many would-be journalists were given the oppor- tunity to try a hand at writing. Work was classified into the following divisions: busi- ness, administration, classes, photography, military, sports, celebrities, houses and halls, activities, index, art, and general duties such as pasting and filing. The Coyote staff was fortunate in having a sketch artist who could draw caricatures. Lorraine Elverson spent long hours studying faces so that she could sketch the representa- tive seniors, and she also handled the ribbon work and all other art work in the book. Shirley Parsons had the job of planning the pages in her capacity as lay-out artist. Dean Campbell and Bill Pay dashed about taking informal pictures of students at work and play. The gigantic task of financing the Coyote fell upon the shoulders of Eleanor Frei, bus- iness manager. She had a staff of eleven ad- solicitors. The first post-war Coyote appropriately chose the theme, the dawn of peace. 119
