NEWS REVIEW N advocate of good, an opponent of bad, and a weekly chronicle of all that is interesting to students of Central high school, the Central High News has, during the year now finished, put forth untiring efforts to live up to the motto, “Permanently, Persistently, Progressive.” When publication was resumed last fall, a new faculty director and an almost entirely new staff were in charge of publishing the News. The first act of the new staff was to enlarge the paper from six columns to seven, thereby making the News pages the same size as those of most large city dailies. In a journalism contest held at the University of Wisconsin in December, the News placed second, competing against more than 200 publications from sixteen states. From that time until the present, the News has steadily improved, and has been called by newspaper men a leading example of high school journalism in the United States. During the last year the News has been an invaluable aid in giving publicity to other worthy activities and projects at Central. It has brought before students and alumni information concerning plays, operas, and other performances put on by various organizations. In the Ccntralian campaign, articles, cartoons, editorials, and advertisements in the News were large factors in swelling the list of subscriptions to the annual. Those who have helped carry on the work of the News during the year just completed feel that a great deal of the credit for the success attained is due to I.. A. Borah, faculty director, who came from Spokane, Washington, to handle Central’s weekly publication. The members of the retiring staff feel that the last year has been one of accomplishment and successful progress. For those who have been appointed to carry on the work, they sincerely desire the greatest possible success. Daniel Mich, Editor-in-chief.
