Co-editors .loan Sopkovich and Ann Williams proofread a stencil before it is mimeographed. Long hours of work paid off To those who are born with a knack with a pencil and a nose for news, production of the CHS Cardinal is a stimulating routine. Deadlines and headlines, leads and layouts, twisted typing and distressing dummies are all a part of the bi-weekly cycle. Eighteen issues during the year showed the combined ingenuity of the editors, assist- ant editors, reporters, business manager and art staff. This led to the production of a paper which accurately reflected activities and opinions of the student body. SEATED: Mrs. Charlotte Flesher, co-sponsorg J. Jones, C. Cutler, K.

Copies were made available in the school library for student reading. BELOW: ln afternoon study halls every other Friday, students give the Cardinal a thorough going-over.
