Vertigo Stays a Weekly Under constant pressure of meeting weekly deadlines are the members of the Vertigo newspaper staff. These 16 students, aided by volunteers and journalism class members, write, edit and produce one of the few weekly high school papers in the state of Michigan. Every conceivable journalistic job - ad sales, photography, page layout, interviewing, writing and editing - are done each week to meet the inevitable Monday night deadlines. The paper comes out each Friday during homeroom period. The two co-editors, Sue Brown and Barb See- ger, are three year veterans of the journalistic wars. As such they know the department inside out and can direct the rest of the staff. Two innovations of the Vertigo this year are the absence of sports news in the regular paper and the publishing of special topical issues. Sports news is covered in the newly established Sports Score Sheet Cathletic programj that included the rosters for home athletic contests. The Vertigo is a self supporting activity earn- ing its money through circulation and advertising sales. Its budget is over S5000 each year. 32 +.
