Advisor Mr. J. Blinn ond Editor Laura Jacobs decide on events to cover in he next issue. Prism Laura Jacobs Heads Prism Last year two people had the task of head- ing the Prism staff, being co-editors, but this year it was different. What ' s the scoop? Laura Jacobs decided to brave it and lead the staff single-handed. Under Mr. J. Blinn ' s and her , guidance, the staff doubled the output of newspapers compared to last year. Two fac- tors contributed to this achievement. A new room for the sole use of the Prism improved ; working conditions. The editor emphasized ; sharing responsibilities. Obstacles such as an j insufficient number of typewriters and no I place or proper equipment to develop pictures, hassled staff members, but obviously didn ' t keep them from obtaining quality. Prism staff members, half of whom had , taken Journalism I, traveled to Bowling Green | University for a journalism workshop. They also toured the Blade. Professor Paul Ashdown, a guest speaker from T.U., spoke to them about considering journalism as a profession. w 1 | f B V i Bi 1 ly Bp 1 1 H ■ 1 II I J Jl Page Editors, Karen Born and Mary Whit- man, help each other type and proof read their stories.

Cheerleaders Cheerleaders Back Winning Team Above: Belting out, Get Tough Defense! Karen Knobbs fires up the crowd. Below: Debbie Ligibel, Becl y McClure, Leslie Skaff, Amy Thielen, Brenda Brown, and Amy McWilliam welcome the Freshmen basketball team onto the floor before their game. Summer heat fried Varsity Cheerleaders but didn ' t keep them from practicing. They de- voted time weekly to perfecting new cheers and formations. At summer camp in Syracuse, Indiana the girls earned three first place awards, one second, and one third. They also received a Spirit Stick to display their ribbons. A fantastic fall season left the girls in a daze after backing a great Tiger team all the way to the City Championship. Cheerleaders and players really got into orange and black knit hats purchased by the Athletic Office, wearing them proudly at the Shoe Bowl, The Varsity squad decorated school halls, visited players ' homes leaving hand-made cards and signs of good-luck, baked cakes for the different teams and gave them carnations before a big game throughout the fall and win- ter seasons. Besides treating the guys, they took Start Cheerleaders out to lunch at Frisch ' s. Cheerleaders, headed by a new advisor. Miss J. Kazmierski, held a clinic for eager Fresh- men interested in cheerleading. The Varsity bought new white and black plaid skirts and bright orange bobby socks (instead of tradi- tional white ones) with the profits. J.V.s really had to dig down during the summer and get in lots of practicing since half the squad never cheered before. For Freshmen Cheerleaders, riding on a decorated car in the Homecoming parade really blew their minds! Varsity Cheerleaders show perfect form as they practice a formation to be performed at basketball games.
