Eight bewildered seniore entered the Jour- nalism class of 45 last fall and after much work became acquanlted with the Journalism field as each issue was produced. They have published the CARTER BROADCASTER every two weeks except before the Teachers Con- vention, before Thanksgiving vacation and before the District 4 Tournament in Miles City when it was published three days ahead of schedule.

From the Quill and 8croll International Honorary Society they received an A for Achievement. This year the CARTER BROADCASTER was only a six page paper because of paper shortage. Each issue was in color; for Valentine's Greetings, red and white, and other issues colors accord- ing to the season. Each paper has contained around 30 ads and there have been 225 subscribers to the BROAD- CASTER. The staff has tried to produce a more inter- esting annual this year, the MEDICINE ROCK was contracted for with Mr. George Basye, who was their photographer. — The Journalism staff of '45 from left to right in ploture above include Phyllis Asbury, art editor; Ida Lee Kennedy, society editor; Dan Peterson, sports editor and business man- ager; Mrs. Tavlln, sponsor; Erma Lea Taylor, mimeograph operator; Alberta Yates, editor-in- chief; Lorraine Thompson, advertising manager; and Betty Kingsley, class editor.
