RECQRD FOR l939 Although many obstacles arose to slow down the progress of the Record for 1939, the Way in which the staff answered the call for special work was commendable. It was over and above the line of duty. The success of this year's book is due mainly to the cooperative spirit that prevailed among most members of the yearbook staff this year. Special recognition should be given certain students for their efforts during the past year: Betty Williams, for supervision dur- ing the early stages of the book: Hazel Bartram, Betty O'Nei1l, and Yvette Ambrose, for the tedious organizations section: Noel Groshong, for taking over the assignments and picture schedules during a time of stress: Jack Sweeney, for his enthusiastic sports articles: and Merle Russell, who acted as Number l stooge with the candid camera, as Well as writing the dramatics section, The annual this year has departed from the stereotyped Chico State Record and turned to a modernistic, but still conservative. treatment of the year's events. The cover design, division pages, and general makeup have attempted to swing to the modern side. Stan Young, staff artist, is responsible for the unique shadow effects of the cover design. Staff members included: Robert Wilcox, editor: Noel Gro- shong, -associate editor: Hazel Bartram, organizations: Jack Sweeney, sports editor: Merle Russell, drama: Norma Jaekel, classes: Marie Clark, music: Wallace Maloney, copy editor: Jim Burns, faculty: Stan Young, staff artist: Betty O'Neill, activi- ties: Rosemma Ahlborn, women's sports: and Ralph Herman, business manager. Without the cooperation of certain business firms this annual could not have been possible. Broyles 'id Camper, Staples Foto Shop, Oakland National Engraving, and Silvius '13 Schoenbackler all contributed a verynecessary part to the final publication of this book.

PUBLICATICDINIS BOB WILCOX Record Editor BETTY O'NEILL Wildcat Editor Fall JACK SWEENEY Wildcat Editor Spring Q Editors of the two im- portant Chico State Col- lege publications have been included here as being rep- resentative of the journa- listic side of college life. At the top is Bob Wilcox, this ' ' T A T year's editor of the Record. He has also held the Wildcat editorship and the position of Commissioner of Publications for the Student Body. Lower left is Betty O'Neill, fall editor of the Wildcat. Betty is a prominent member of Alpha Chi sorority and has held down many student posts. Jack Sweeney, only freshman student to hold the editorship of the Wildcat weekly, is pictured at the lower right. Jack's work during the fall semester entitled him to the position in the spring. Publications at Chico State have been progressing, although the organization of the journalists has not. The Press Club, which has been active for the past three years, was disbanded this year. Dr. Alva P. Taylor is advisor for both the Wildcat and Record, while Paul L. Byrne handles the finances. This year the class in journalism was started again and prospects are for increasing interest in Chico State publications.
