JOURNALISM Publications Thoughts While Biting My Nails, This Way Please, and Here and There Around School are columns appearing in each copy of the Sentinel. All-American newspaper, the Sentinel heads for this year have held that as their main goal. Editor-in-chief Bun Rosenbrock bites her nails while Darrell Dotzenrod madly works on his 'Sports Reports . Business worries cause Bev 1BBl Beadell's wrinkled brow, Chuck Valdahl resembles, mentally. Eva Tanguay lrhymes with Eleanor Roosevelt's My Daynl. His responsibility lies in the editorial page. Cut Paper. Shortage of paper this year made it necessary to cut the Sentinel down to four pages 8 except on holidays when it became a six-page paper. Reporting for the paper and getting the ads so necessary to maintain it is the responsibility of the students taking journalism. They are given actual experience in this manner. The heads of the staff all took journalism their junior year. What light from yonder win- dow breaks? -Shakespeare. 'Tis but the Austinian staff working late again. They devour more cokes and do less work than the en- tire male population from Jay Cee ftlunior Collegel. Editor's Note: That's not true. If it were, you woulcln't be reading this. Austinian staff is composed of seniors. Although a course in jour- nalism is not required of staff mem- bers, the heads usually have had this training. Editor-in-chief Dick Saterbo and Helper Greta Meseck took journalism their junior year. Most section editors have had or are taking the course.
