1966 Buccopia Mr. Pailone an ‘y Branch prepare copy for a layout. Presenting ae The job of publishing a yearbook begins in the spring of the year and extends throughout the summer months when most of the pre- liminary planning is completed. The work is ‘then continued during the current school year with the staff performing a variety of assign- ments: scheduling, taking, and selecting pic- tures, planning layouts, writing copy, and work- ing on cover and end sheet designs. Frequent deadlines make the task exciting and exacting. Much planning goes into the development of each ‘section, which is individually drawn up and done over until perfect. Each part of the book is assigned to various staff members, who, with the help and guidance of the spon- sor, assume the responsibility of compiling that section. Numerous incidents such as misspelled names, lost negatives, or missing pictures pro- vide-fun for all who assist in the production of the annual. Nancy Kobericks’ fine art work helped boost yearbook sales.
