Taught by Nliss lane Kohler, the journalism students published eight issues that were well received. During the course of the year these journalists attended Drexe1's Press Conference and also participated in the Temple Press Tournament. This year marks the thirtieth anniversary of The Torch. The first eighteen years, from 1917 to 1955, it appeared as a magazine, published four times a year, the last issue being the senior number. The past twelve years, from 1955 to 1947, it has been a yearbook, published at the end of the school year. Nliss Ruth Nailor, assisted by Miss Althea Mantz, was advisor for the 1947 publication. Fifteen new advertisers were added to the Honor Roll, including advertisers who have had insertions in The Torch for five or more consecutive years. The Honor Roll now contains over 100 members, all of whom are indicated by a star. These stars testify as to the splendid relationship that exists between the local business people and the Doylestown Public School. The fact that over S1600 was contracted for by the business men this year is further proof of this relationship. Mr. Forrest Sowers was the faculty business manager. A very optimistic theme for the Art Staff to interpret this year was that of the old Doylestown school building in contrast to the students' imaginary conception of the proposed new Joint lligh School, but the artists were equal to the task judging from the results. Because of certain skills that were necessary, it required as many as three different artists to complete a single divider. The work was directed by Miss Melba Lulusns. 88
