Roll Those Presses! Co-editors Larry Bucher and Suzanne O’Conner confer with Mrs. Squires about an important story for the paper. ORANGE AND BLACK Staff: Kay Finfrock, Stella Scheerer, Janet Cartwright, Margaret Wolf, Cheryl Vrooman, Sylvia Pressler, Linda Dorais, Kay Fishback, Tammy Lutz, Suzanne Journalism students displayed their talents every two weeks in the form of the Orange and Black. Under the watchful direction of Mrs. Squires, the staff pub¬ lished our school paper. They included editorials, stu¬ dent and faculty news, sports, exchange news from other schools, and stories of the events of the school year. Although the paper was usually four pages in length, they published special papers six pages long at different times. The class publishes the paper not only for the en¬ joyment of the students, but also to learn the basic fundamentals of newspaper publication. Co-editor Larry Bucher attended the High School Journalism Institute to help him better understand his duties. The Orange and Black staff worked hard, kept the presses rolling, and had a successful year in the news¬ paper field. O’Conner, Mary Ann Kafoure, Reid Sprague, Ron Walters, Sam Rohr, Larry Bucher, Linda Turner, Linda Mitchell, Vicki Fuller, and Mrs. Squires. 25

Saturday Morning Award Winners Debate Club members worked hard and had many good times while bringing honors back to Wabash High School. SPEECH CLUB: (front row, left to right) Paul Sprague, Dave Larrowe, Jeff Price, Stella Scheer, Miss Schuh, sponsor, Ra- nelle Christie, Carol Jo Bornhouse, Margaret Wolf, Penny Nagel, Bethann Bahler. Second row: Masamitsu Oki, Becky Bennett, Jenny Walters, Sue Plom, Linda Derek, Pat Reed, As the speaker approaches the podium, the crowd becomes quiet. After making a few nervous gestures, he begins to speak. Following the ordeal of speaking he must wait for the judges to announce his score to see if he may continue. These are trying experiences but the members of the Speech and Debate Clubs work hard to achieve high rankings in the National Forensic League. Under the leadership of Miss Schuh, sponsor, and Margaret Wolf, president, the clubs went to contest early each Saturday morning. This year the two clubs and several other groups worked together to sponsor a speech meet at Wabash High School. All of these projects and contests involve a lot of work, but the participants have a lot of fun while making new friends. Carla Hahn, Ann Harvey, Karen Crouch, Renita Christie, Nancy Hayhurst. Third row: Steve Downs, Linda Herrell, Beverly Boyer, Myra Pitman, Laura Jacob, Steve Plummer, Dave Henderson, Beverly Stoops, Janet Pruden, Dolly Green, Alicia Hetzner. 26
