This organization also keeps abreast of current activities such as participating in the Homecoming parade and co-sponsoring Foreign Language Week.

That float claimed first prize in the Homecoming parade . That achievement started the club out on a good foot.

Three more deadlines?! Linda is always busy. Yours Annually 1978 Traveler Staff Picture day has its rewards. A typical day in the “pit” starts at 2:15 with the yearbook “zoo” crew, Laurie Selz—editor, Linda George—assistant editor, Rindy Lawson—business manager, David Eye, Bernice Mclvor, Loretta Lettner, Cindy Roach, Donna Hodges, Robin Spiggle, and John Jimison, under the supervision of the “zoo keeper” Brenda Waldron, checking in for a busy day of hard work. What follows may be surprising to the rest of the student body who think that all we do is “take pictures”. We spend our days and occasional nights writing copy, cropping pictures, typing copy, in- terviewing people, drawing layouts, fitting copy, creating ee and captions, and many other things to meet our eadlines. pat S e Summer workshops at Longwood and excursions to Elon Laren Pe cea oe College prove successful in teaching the staff the principles of putting a yearbook together.
