Edward LeGant 1934 . . . another year and another annual. The annual staff this year was chosen from a group who applied for positions. The advisers felt that the members of the staff should be able to state their preference for field of Work, and be picked accordingly. Because the boys and girls working on this publication were so keenly interested, we never had dull moments in the publications' room or in the art room. The literary staff decided to dedicate the book to the spirit of youth along with the development of Leadership. They chose to make use of the style of Walter Winchell fusing dotsj in writing sketches of Mr. Nauts, Mr. Dudgale, and Mr. Mathias. The same style was used for the squibs of seniors and teache1's. The art staff thought of the novelty of making stick figures and photographing them to produce life-like effects. Division pages served to divide the book into sections of faculty, organizations, freshmen, sophomores, juniors, seniors, girls' athletics, boys' athletics. . The art staff picked the gold cover material in keeping with the name Pot O' Gold. Thomas Stead and Thomas Almroth were responsible for the design. Working on the annual was not a burden for anyone this year. Progress was started early in the year so that there was no last minute rush. On Valentine's Eve, Miss Bloom entertained us all with a party in her home. The fact that our advisers, Miss Rose Bloom, Mr. Louis J. Mathias Jr., Miss Florence Cooper, and Miss Ethel Willoughby, worked along with us, enabled us to secure unusual cooperation. 4th Row: Norman Bertwhilstle, Mr. Louis Mathias, Thomas Stead.

Mary MacDermid THE Prism, school newspaper, is published bi-Weekly by the staff in connection with the journalism class of DeVilbiss high school. Since it is outstanding among papers, it has been granted a charter by Quill and Scroll, international honor society for high school journalists, and from this received an international Hrst class honor rating. VVhile there is guidance and advice on the part of the faculty adviser, Miss Rose Bloom, the Prism is wholly a student publication and in all departments is written and edited by the students. Subscriptions and advertising support it financially. In addition to the routine of publishing the paper, the staff also participated in outside contests and activities. Representing the Prism were sixteen students who, on November 10, went to Columbus, Ohio, to attend the annual state convention. Among the group that went, a number of them participated in contests and still another group took part in a demonstration conducted by Miss Bloom. Miss Bloom led a round table discussion on interviewing at Ohio State University. After contributing to various contests sponsored by Quill and Scroll during the year, Dave Perry, Wayne Babcock, Florence Buser, Jean Platt, Betty Adams and Walter Weese received honorable mention in the respective contests to which they submitted. The 1934-1935 staff hopes it has fulfilled its purpose in keeping up-to-date records of DeVil- biss activities throughout the year and its policy to break school life into colorful news.
