QUILL AND SCROLL - HONORARY JOURNALISM ORGANIZATION The international honorary society for high school journalists is the Quill and Scroll Cluh. Membership is offered to those who have done outstanding work on a school newspaper. This year the society awarded the Trojan Tribune recognition as the second best school newspaper in the United States. Perhaps the most humorous highlight of the year was the society's participation in the senior-sponsored Big Sandwichy' contest. Contestants made sandwiches to fit catagories such as Hgrossest sandwich , Biggest sandwich , and Hdullest sandwich . Adding to the fun was when the contestants had to eat their sandwiches. The Alisal society snared the 'IBest-Overall trophy with its award winning sandwich. Mr. Puterbaugh, advisor, and Jack Hanks, President, did a fine job of supervising the society.
