When only live people signed up for the journalism class, a period of debate on the wis- dom of permitting such a small class to continue followed. At last the required permission was obtained and the first issue of the Microphone came out, and it has been coming out regularly ever since. On December 13, the five members of the class, augmented by the three contributors visited the offices and printing rooms of the South Bend Tribune. - Their Christmas party was held December 20 after school hours. On that occasion, the staff sent cocoa and cake to the members of the junior play cast, who were rehearsing at the time. The class came to an end after the first semester, but most of the members are still carrying on its Work. During the second semester voice was given to the microphone by a voluntary staff under the supervision of Miss Cernahan. The staff was composed of: Editor-in-chief, Ralph Rosenberg, Sports, George Hampel and Maryette Richardsg Copy editor, Vivian Carlisleg Feature editor, Charles Hessg Social editor, Philip Birongg Reporters, Gael Pierce, Florence Brewer, Dorothy Geary, Lorraine Pletcher, and June Gregory. It was the aim of this group to improve the Microphone by making it more interesting and informative to its readers. MICROPHONE STAFF
