Editok Jim Ml i.uoon Editors CoNitv, G. i tiiilk, iJ.w i , The 1940 Bluejay Informality .... theme of the 1940 Bluejay. Informality designed to bring to the pages of the annual the added bits of life and color and tone expected in the modern yearbook and attained by the Bluejay staff through extensive use of expressive photos and vivid copy. The problem of providing variety was met by employing new techniques in layout, written material and illustrations. Most prominent change in makeup from Bluejays of previous years is a wide use of circle pictures. Many photographs are run off the page edges in deference to the latest trend toward bleed-off pictures. Use of these photos has resulted in a modern, informal type of page balance. In keeping with the preference of today ' s readers, the staff has in- corporated much of the newspaperman ' s style of writing into the copy. This liberal style has not been restricted to the sports section but is found throughout the book. Something entirely new to The Bluejay is the large type-size of this edition. The large twelve-point type is used with an eye to making easier reading than was possible with the ten-point type of former years. Search for originality was naturally concentrated on the four main sub-division pages. In both instances, the pursuit of novelty was re- warded with the finding of fresh ideas in production. In the main division pages are presented four-color cartoons depicting events familiar to all connected with Hilltop affairs during the past year. Nothing along similar lines has ever been done for an edition of The Bluejay. Pictured in car- toons are scenes of registration, students ' cheering sections, student rally and the Junior-Senior Prom. The drawings contain the artist ' s conception of the actions of students and faculty members. Beneath the drawings are caricatures of a total of thirty-two ca mpus characters chosen as most likely to be familiar figures to the majority 128
