Tyro For the staff of the Tyro, the school newspaper, this year was a challenging one. The combination of a small staff and the large amount of individual work necessary to complete articles and lay- out caused some problems at the monthly deadlines. However, there remained a core of dedicated members willing to give their time and energy to complete the necessary tasks. This year was the second that Tyro made use of an editorial board. The board was set up last year as a vehicle for fairer and more complete editorial coverage in the paper, and most agree that it is a successful system. Editorial Editor Joe Kronsnoble remarks, Our editorial board this year was full of ideas. We found that in the first few issues of the paper we played it safe in our editorials, but later in the year, after we were able to read the mood of the student body by their Our staff of editors, writers, and photographers were con- stantly working for deadlines or on paste-up and layout. Everyone tried their best to keep up with the never-ending cycle of the paper. - Kirk Wooldridge 41, Jim Pandl and Mark Middleton work on a paste-up. 12, Setting headlines, John Zajac works with a typesetter. 13, Tyro staff - 1150: Mrs. Mos- chella, Linda Lambrecht, Diane Carco, Lisa Bourdo, Astrid Schmidt. l2nd,: Dave Knott, Joe Kronsnoble, Tony Contresarl, Jim Pandl, Matt Claus, Peter Liacopoulos, Kevin Wedding, Mike Mumper, Kirk Wooldridge. 3rd1: Mark Middleton, John Zajac. 14, Reading Albatross' eggs, are Cathy Dupar and Gail Miller. 15, Albatross Staff - l1sl,: Sean M.

One such strong stance, the Student Council editorial, which criticized the Council for allegedly not providing suffi- cient student services, caused a lot of controversy in the school. Many stu- dents felt that the editorial was unfair and not completely accurate. One major problem that the staff encountered during the year was that of keeping the paper's articles releva and current, We really had to try write the stories as up-to-date as pos ble, especially in the sports section, that when the paper came out tl wouldn't be old news, remarks Spo Editor Tony Contresceri. Mike Mumper concludes, lt take: lot of experience and hard work to r the paper. I hope that future staffs c carry on the Tyro tradition. 7.1. H' - 3. X its ' as 'txt A Y 2 his 45.

l l ! One of the most enjoyable aspects of being bn Albatross is having the opportunity to read through the work of students. lt's fascinating to experience how they feel, and to be exposed to the writing techniques that they use. To me, it's almost like enjoying a good book, and I think that is what we try to do with Albatross - to compile a book which all students can enjoy. l - Matt Claus l L ref-Q gi it' .1-gk 4 Albatross Central has a tradition of producing some very fine writers, especially in the area of creative writing, and through the Albatross, the school's literary maga- zine, these students are given a chance to convey their thoughts to the entire student body. Many students are probably not even aware of the existence of the Albatross, its staff is small, and there are no sched- uled meetings. Largely an independent and individual effort, the publication compiles student poetry, prose, art, and photography into a coherent, tasteful book. Published once a year, the Albatross gets a large part of its material from the Creative Writing classes, although any student may submit his work. Staff members spend numerous hours read- ing Creative Writing folders, marking those selections which they find to be of exceptional quality. Co-editor Kelly Scanlon notes, lt's very difficult to decide which selections to use. We try to include something from everyone. The Albatross is really an individual- ized publication, adds Kelly Kososky. There are no real assignments, so it is really up to our own initiative to get it done. l find that reading the works of other students keeps me writing myself, and that makes Alba even more worth- while.
