The main purpose of this monthly organ of the college has been to carry current campus, national and international news to its readers. Through its editorial columns it has sought to uphold the ideals purported by the liberal arts college, and more specifically to support students' loyalty to Bluffton College. The staff, headed by 'the editor- in-chief, is divided into the editorial and reportorijal staffs. The editorial staff is composed of the managing editor, in charge of general coverageg the proof editor, and the humor editor. In addition, permanent writers contribute columns for the music department, the library, campus so- ciety, the humanities, and contemporary happenings. There is an oppor- tunity for activity in the varied fields of journalism for those showing talent in straight news or feature writing. No previous experience is required for admission to the staff, though rigid rules must be observed to maintain a permanent position on the staff. Zine gdcfonal Sl co N

The Business Staff not only makes sure that suf- ficient advertising is available for the monthly publication of the news- paper, but also provides for certain functions beyond the actual printing of the paper. The Business Staff is divided into two divisions, the adver- tising group and the circulation group. The latter attends to the hand- ling and mailing of the paper to numerous alumni, faculty, high schools, colleges. and to those interested in the activities of the college as well as the distribution of the paper to local advertisers.
