» i i SAVITAR THIS year for the first time the Savitar sophomore staff has been divided into two parts, the editorial staff and the business staff. This specialization of the work has been found to be quite successful, and it is believed that the sophomores get better training for the positions on the executive staff the following year. The freshmen still are given the same general work they have always done; this gives them a year to decide whether editorial or business work is the more interesting to them. At the end of the freshman year, those whose work has come up to the caliber set by the Savitar Board and the executive staff are recommended for positions on the sophomore staff. These recom- mendations are acted upon by the Student Council, whose decision is final. The new sopho- mores are allowed to select their own line of work and specialize in that line throughout their sophomore year, at the end of which time they are chosen on the basis of monthly ratings to the four executive positions: ed- itor, business manager, and two associates.

Nelson Ed Ellis Editor Associate Editor Managing Editor Copy Editors Sports Editor Junior Assistants Sophomore Assistants AS THE official student newspaper of the University, the ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ■ ' ° ' Missouri Student attempts to promote the best interests of the Student Body in every possible way. Its main objective is to print student opinion on all issues confronting the students and to take a stand in behalf of the students, when the occasion warrants such action. Essentially non-political in character, the Student has maintained an independent attitude both in its editorial columns and its selection of staff members. Although it is under the control of the Student Council, the editor is almost entirely free to choose his assistants and the editorial policy. The Council exercises its control through the Advisory Board made up of four Council members and a student chosen at large. The editor is a non-voting but otherwise regular member of the Council. There is no faculty censorship or control. During the first semester the paper was distributed each Wednesday evening to every student enrolled in the University. The retrenchment program of the University caused withdrawal of support from that quarter and made it necessary to sell subscriptions in order to secure the finan- cial backing for the second semester. That it secured a circulation numbering more than one- half of the students is proof of its popularity as a campus news sheet.

i 9E«i3« j i r « ra a.3a i ffl SAVITAR BUSINESS STAFF Richard C. Shaw Business Manager SOPHOMORE ASSISTANTS Frank Novoson William Rownd Claire Stong James Goodfriend THE business side of the Savitar is one of the most practical of all the University Betty Logan Activities. The production of Richard C. Shaw the yearbook involves the col- lection and expenditure of money between the amounts of $16,000 and } 2O,O00. All the moneys collected by the business manager are deposited with the secretary of the University, who is the trustee. In return, the business office of the school gives the Savitar a receipt voucher for the items and amounts received. All moneys disbursed by the Savitar are given by check drawn on the office of the secretary. The business manager submits a properly signed voucher consisting of signatures of the business manager, the creditor, and the student president, who represents the Student Council. The business manager ' s job consists of taking care of four definite phases of the book: First, he has charge of the sale and distribution of the books; second, he has the job of collecting money buying space in the Savitar; third, he is responsible for checking the work of the advertising manager, but this year, due to the lack of an advertising manager, the larger part of this work was left to the business manager; and fourth, he must budget the book, keep books and limit the editorial staff to the maximum expenditures that the Staff can make. i ( yl Pettegrew Novoson Wheeler Zelle Rownd McEnnis Mayes Smith Page 183
