Editors collaborate with Mr an Nickle over With a larger staff than ever before, the Empyrean, Mitchell's literary-art magazine, was assembled for dis- tribution in the spring. It consisted of a wide variety of literature-short stories, essays, poems, songs, and all forms of art work that could be printed. There was no limit on the type of literature that could be accepted, the only prerequisite was that all work had to be done by students. Thus the Empyrean tried to create some new dimensions. Again this year, the Empyrean was printed in the Industrial Arts building by the students of graphic arts. This process was economical and made the magazine com- pletely a school product. Two sponsors new to the magazine this year were Miss Barbara Brode and Mr. Mark Buswell. They worked in conjunction with veteran Empyrean sponsor Mr. Fran- cis Nickle. Heading up the staff of editors was Bill Stevenson, editor-in-chief, Barlow Westcott was selection editor, Judy Martinez was publicity editor, Jeff Milliken was lay- out editor, and Thom Haber served as art editor. ff
