The Comet is a member of the National Scholastic Press Association which named it an All-American Yearbook , the Interscholastic League Press Conference which presented its Award of Distinguished Merit, and the Columbia Scholastic Press Association which presented the Medalist Award. The 1984 Comet yearbook staff recognized its obligation to present the most comprehensive, thorough and complete coverage of the year possible by publishing a yearbook of professional magazine journalism quality. The Comet yearbook attempted to accomplish this goal of informing and reminding the reader by trying to produce the most accurate reporting possible of the SFA students and faculty, their lives and lifestyles, and the news and events that occur during this academic year. The staff determined what would be covered on the basis of newsworthiness and historical significance and the staff also determined how each subject would be covered based on the depth, scope, and breadth of each topic, Seven hundred and fi ty copies of the 1984 Comet were printed by Henington Publishing Company of Wolfe City, Texas. Typefaced used for page folios is Kaufmann Bold, and News Gothic Bold is used for the headlines while the body copy is Palatino Bold. The paper is 80 lb. enamel and the cover is designed on 150 point binder board. Portrait photography and group pictures were taken by Dave Mosher of Varden Studios. The Comet initially sold for S215 extra copies after distribution will cost 535. Advertising rates in this edition were 53125 for a full pagep S75 for a half pageg S65 for a third page, S55 for a quarter pagep and S45 for an eighth of a page.

Un Me Govan, The Austin High School seal was designed before 1900 and is based on the Great Seal of the State of Texas. Including the star of five points representing the Republic of Texas and the olive and live oak branches for strength opposed to fertility, the SFA seal contains the Latin Motto, Mens Agitat Molem, which translates as The Mind Stirs The Mass, meaning that a person's intellect will guide his actions. In 1953 the seal was modified to include the words Austin High School in the place of The State of Texas around the outside of the star and with the motto beneath. 8 .- These are the people and scenes of Stephen F. Austin as seen through the eyes of cartoonist Whitney Ayres, crea- tor of the Lucky comic strip. His hand was put in traction after completing the extraordinarily work. .2
