Their sponsor, Miss Skogestad, urged them to go slowly but the dozen budding journalists soon proved their ability and have been reforming things ever since. The first issue of 11 Carter Broadcaster during 1940-41 was hailed as remarkable for a beginning class, but critics were due for even more surprising developments than that,Ekala.1 Il- ians soon declared the Broadcaster to be better than ever before in Carter's history and before the year was out, the Montana Interscholastic Editorial Association showed that they thoroughly agreed by selecting the Broadcaster for membership on the all-state staff. The class sent five of its members to the Journalism convention in Missoula, one of whom acted as the Broadcaster's representative on the state staff In order to get acquainted with other journa- lists, to arouse interest in school publications and to solve mutual problems, four members of the staff attended a neighborhood meeting at Clondive in November
