THE FIRST STEP in the printing of a newspaper is typesetting. Shown below are Bobby Baggett and James Earl Taylor. THE CHOWANIAN The Graphic Arts Department set a precedent this year. THE CHOWANIAN, the official college newspaper, rolled off the presses early in Octo- ber even before all of the equipment in the shop had been serviced, cleaned and located. Thus, the first paper had been printed by the students in the college shop. A small staff of student printers did a ma- jority of the work--writing, rewriting, headline writing, linotype operation, proofreading, make- up, press operation, circulation. Charles Fulcher, CHOWANIAN editor-in-chief, supervised the en- tire process with John McSweeney, head of the department and adviser, instructing. Even the limited number of assistants did not require changing the deadlines. Charles sought editorial assistance in every department of the college. The organizations cooperated, the students helped, the offices gave information . But, nnost of the coop- eration had to be forced, Charles will vouch.

Pictures brought life to the printed material. The big news story revealed the Board of Trustees action approving the con- struction of a new men ' s dormitory. The big sports story probably appeared under the head Braves Trounce Pfieffer Panthers 120 to 86. The reporters, editors, make-up men and others concerned with the publication realize that the work done this year will greatly affect that done in the future. With this idea in mind, the staff has been diligently working and always striv- ing for a better paper. And, though the work has been hard, the staff feels that remuneration re- sulted in the paper ' s popularity and the part it played in integrating activities and events.
