Headlines And Deadlines The more disorganized we are, the bet- ter the paper turns out, commented Mr. Anderson the Hawkeye advisor. In the be- ginning the staff was inexperienced, but as the year progressed they became more able-bodied and adept in their fields of jour- nalism. The printing of quality articles earned the respect of the students. Chang ing the Hawkeye’s masthead, type style, headlines, printer and adding new pages altered the paper significantly for the bet ter. Facing the problems of a typical family atmosphere, the staff had disagreements, experienced the tedious work of writing and rewriting articles and felt that shock of misplacing articles and having to start over. But they also shared that certain pride of accomplishment when the paper was finally published. Deadlines were al- ways hectic because if they were not met, the paper would not be printed. With the size of the paper it was easy for the staff to miss an article then discover at the printers that it wasn't there. It was frustrating to spend time and work so hard writing an article then see your page crumpled up on the floor, expressed Myrna Stephens. There were few censorship problems ex- cept in the case of reviewing R-rated films. Advertisements from local business paid the expenses of publishing the Hawkeye. Improving on established ideas and ex- perimenting with new ones kept the paper open to change and growing in stature and importance. Counting out the newspapers for distribution, Rod Gibbons ropes his friend Tim Seers into helping with one of the tedious but necessary jobs of journalism. 130 • Newspaper
