Inside Anodyne office — Howie and Bert, working on copy. Ed and Jack planning an Anodyne editorial. Joel, Mara and Gil putting in overtime to get Anodyne out. For the past several years the term Anodyne has come to mean something more to the students at the College of Pharmacy than its purely pharmaceutical connotation. About a decade and several successive titles ago, it was finally decided that the publication of the school promoted a soothing and relaxed feeling; thus it was called Anodyne. As stated in the regulations governing the activities of the paper, there are five issues produced each academic year. A sixth issue may or may not be printed at the discretion of the executive editorial board. Each April, an April Fool issue entitled Iodine was printed. However, this past year, it was decided that the humorous edition should be withdrawn so that the more pertinent news could reach the student body. The positive reaction of the student body pointed the way to future editorial staffs for the discontinuation of this particular humorous theme. Because Anodyne is primarily a student publication, the entire staff of writers, copy and proof readers, artists, typists, and photographers is drawn from the undergraduate student body. The only contact with the faculty is through one faculty advisor who deletes any material considered to be in bad taste. This past year at a student debate concerning the advisability of continuing the publication discussion centered around the cost of production. Production is made possible by an annual appropriation for Anodyne received from the Student Activities Fund. As a result, Anodyne received a revised allocation enabling it to continue its quarterly publication for the ninth consecutive year. 29

We ' ve crossed that path for three consecutive years, so you can see that we ' re old hands at this so called spring migration. But hard as it is to believe, we will never do it again as college students. After the pre-season warm ups, the school intramurals begin. The field is laid out in accordance with Softball regulations. Each team has a roster of ten active players, and a full group of cheering classmates.
