Experimental Beginning the year by doubling ad sales, the yearbook staff was really on top of things. However, due to the fact that every new idea they tried failed, they were still at a loss. To complement the book’s usual features, they added twenty more pages and had sixteen color pages in- stead of eight. A new gimmick — “Classified Ads ’ was introduced; students could write anything on a line fora nominal fee, and key rings were given to those who partici- pated. Yet there was no big response. Seeling books in the hall instead of during homeroom was a change, however there was a decrease in sales. During the produc- tion, snow didn't exact- ly help matters any. Setbacks This delay caused the Staff to miss their Janu- ary deadline by one day, causing a slight set back in delivery. To add to all of these mishaps, there was a $3000 increase in the budget, making it the largest budget ever. Through all the good and bad, the staff worked to get the news covered the way that it should be. Yet they were still dis- appointed over the set- backs caused by unsuc- cessful projects. In order to be sucessful there must be cooperation between editors. Here Danita Dellinger, copy editor, and Lori Ledford, editor, discuss the copy that will be used in the yearbook. Using a new indexing system, staff members Kathy Miller, Greg Gould, and Emily Johnson check copy and captions to assure the correct pages.

LInnoticed Publication Kaleidoscope? ‘'‘What's that?’’ For those not in- terested in high school liter- ature publication, this word may not be popular. Howev- er, for those few who spent hours each day during and after school, trying to put the magazine together, it meant a great deal. Members of the Quill and Scroll Honor Society read hundreds of entries. These included poetry, plays, short stories, and articles. Then with the help of photo- graphers who took pictures Of artwork, and layout artists, they arranged every- thing so that it worked together toward one goal — continuity. Advisor Dixie Dellinger said, ‘‘The sales at the Cultu- ral Arts Festival went well, and | was pleased with the magazine.” And so were others — Kaleidoscope 1981 received several awards, including Honorable Mention from the North Carolina Historical society and Honorable Men- tion from the North Carolina Scholastic Press Association. With a look of dispair, junior Scott Grigg reads over his newspaper article. Pawprints Staff Bottom Row: Addison.
