' s -1 I PROPAGANDA - - - THE AMERICAIQ WAY TM, This year the Dynamo staff began work with one aim in mind. that ot' trying to better the rating whieh the paper receives each year from the National Seholastie Press Assoeiation. To do this. the statl' entered the Critical Service Bureau ot' the N. S. l'. A. During the first semester eaeh issue was sent to this bureau. where eritieisms were marked on the paper and it was returned to the editor two weeks later with a letter eontaining ideas for improvements. Experiments with the front page were carried on by using two-column headlines with one- eolumn stories. pietures and eartoons. During the seeond semester. the statt tried to use one photograph in eaeh issue. The eredit for the make-up ot' this trout page is to be given to the managing editor. Marjorie Talle, who served on the statt' her entire tour years in high school. The seeond page, whieh was used for features, ineluded in every issue a story about one of thc most prominent members ot' the senior 1-lass. The feature editor. Mary Margaret Jaeger. was in eharge ot' this work. Football. basketball, traek and baseball aetivi- ties were very ably covered on the fourth page by Hob tlstenson and his assistants. Rob, the sports editor. also had his own column, 'Side- lights. Tom liyneh. acting as business manager, was responsible for having an income large enough to eover expenditures. Other seniors who deserve praise for their ef- fort this year are Mary M. Roberts. copy editor, llette Dirks. exchange edito1'. Jeanne M'ilson. advertising manager, Marjette l ritehen. feature writer, and Phyllis Bridell. Marilynn Sanderson, Elaine Sunday and Doris Halvorson. typists. The Dynamo also entered the soeial aetivi- ties ot' D. II. S. by sponsoring two sehool parties. At the first one it introduced a new type ot' musie to sehool parties-the publie address system. Not only was this enthusiastieally received by the students but it also enabled the group spon- soring the dance to earn a profit. The seeond party was the sueeesstul Leap Year Dance whieh showed the D. Il. S. Sadie llawkinsesn entertaining their ltiI' Almersf' The Dynamo stat? also had their own parties during the eourse ot' the sehool yea1'. ln the winter there was a skating party and in the spring. the annual banquet at whieh the statt' t'or next year was annouueed. The students who will take over editorial duties for the eoming year are liette Volby, Virginia Alm. lfranees Arneson, liobert lienseh, Robert Rosenthal, Margie Elliot, t'arolyn Nelson. l lorenee Nelson and Ardath Youmans. Sinee the Dynamo has been sueh an import- ant and sueeessful reeord of D. H.
