The pencil writes down thoughts of an individual that are to be read, trans- lated and criticized by many others. The question: is it good enough for publication? A publication that will be read, or a yearbook that will be popu- lar with the students-these are the goals that the yearbook and news- reporting staffs strive to reach. Each staff member admits something about himself when his name is included in the staff list of a publication, and both staffs are continually engaged in re- flecting the best part of themselves. The image of the writer formed by the reaction to and acceptance of a publi- cation is important to both a general staff and an individual staff member. Because of this, the newsreporting staff works hard at the publications they put out, including the Swashta and news stories sent out through Arapahoe Student News Service. The annual staff has a year's job of cap- turing pictures and words that will tell the story about the happenings of the year and to put it all in a hard back book. The best work of the staffs must compose these publications, and the best work requires many precious hours to accomplish, hours where the best journalistic style of the writer or photographer must be in use. But regardless of the work necessary to bring a magazine or yearbook to press, both staffs find distribution days re- warding and well worth the hours, or year, of work that went into them. up

15171 l am alone. . . I do many things alone. Thinking is best. Can you imagine anything as funny as trying to teach your wife to drive. Let us again turn to our third contention. If the negative team will remember . . . Those are some of the sounds of the Forensic Squad. Forensics can boast something for everyone. The Interpretation events are, Dramatic, Humorous, and Poetry. Duet and Solo acting make up the Acting division. The Public Speaking division includes, Debate, Original Ora- tory, Analysis and lnterpretation of Oratory, and Extemporaneous Speaking. They all sound different, but are still tied together by one word: COIVIIVIU- NICATION. The desire and ability to communicate are both necessary traits of a Speech Team member. Two other vvords also apply: competition, and a very important one, confidence. Belief in yourself is absolutely necessary for a good performance.
