Born to Beachwood High School in the year 1958 was the fledgling newspaper, the Beachcomber. Like all youngsters its development has been slow but steady. Its pages have given students inside stories on sports events, the latest fads and the decisions of the Student Council. It included, as well, the news of club activities and the announce- ment of various coming events. Along with staff members, con- tributors in the past years have been faculty members and students of the journalism class. Under the direc- tion of Mr. Robert Dober, advisor, and Tom Sherman, editor-in-chief, the Beachcomber has seen con- tinuous improvement.

Oculus Learn as you do might well be the motto of Beachwood High School's first yearbook staff. Under the able leadership of editor Merle Rabine and as- sociate editor Laura Huber, the enthusiastic students who comprised the staff worked diligently on their first endeavor of this type. With no precedents to follow, they faced a doubly difficult task and en- countered many obstacles. Several staff members had their first introduction to the Ways and Whys of yearbook preparation at the Ohio University Joumalism Workshop which they attended last June. The rest of the staff had to learn by trial and error, and Mrs. Johns was an invaluable asset to the staff as advisor. Working at their homes on weekends as well as after school, they spent long hours brain- storming copy and making layouts. Many tasks were done, undone and done over again, but little by little, its office constantly humming with activity both during and after school hours, Oculus acquired form and meaning.

Cheerleaders Boosting school spirit and giving the team the support they needed was the cheerleaders' job. Whatever the score, the twelve girls that made up Beachwood's varsity and junior varsity squads ex- hibited exuberant enthusiasm. At 3:30, when most students left wearily and thankfully for home, the cheerleaders began ses- sions of rigorous practice. Headed for the third year by Sheila Goldstock, the girls gladly gave up many hours of their time to perfect routines. Work ing towards this goal, they attended city-wide cheerleading clinics in early autumn. The fruits of their labor were evident every week from September to March at football and basketball games, as well as many pep assemblies. Their spirit in all their undertakings made them one of the outstanding squads in the city. VARSITY FIRST: Marsha Nagelbush, Mary Jean West, Jeri Silverman. SECOND: Shelly Friedman, Carolyn Lapine, Sheila Goldstock. JUNIOR VARSITY FIRST: Cindy Good- friend, Leslie Stein fCaptainj,,Marsha Fried- man. SECOND: Lee Stiefel, Sherry Weiner, Marti Shiffer. Jeri leeps high during pep assembly. Cheerleaders rejoice after touchdown. 44
