Publishing of THE ESCAMBIAN involved the combined efforts of every single individual doing whatever is necessary to complete the job. Staffs Become 'Practical Experience' The two publication staffs become the 'practical' experience of Journalism. according to Miss Betty Sue Wrenn. sponsor. Members of both staffs take knowledge they obtained in Journalism I and put it to use in Journalism ll or Ill. Students are properly trained in the mechan- ics ofthe journalistic style of writing in Journalism I. Writing headlines, learning to use the style book. composing various types of articles, and knowing when to use the various families is part of this training. I will be able to use the knowledge gained in Journalism I to get a job in the future, states Jane McCurdy. Journalism I student. Journalism ll involved the publishing of THE ESCAMBIA NEWS. a monthly publication printed to keep each student aware of school activities. Every staff member must exert great effort in order to create an interesting and informative new- spaper. The purpose of The Escambia News is to inform the students of current events around the school and to provide a medium through which students can express their views. comments Steve Ford. editor. Preparation of THE ESCAMBIAN involves the efforts of nine staffs working together toward the same goal of putting out a memorable yearbook in May. Journalism lll is divided into two periods so that more people may participate and accomplish more work. Staffs work together closely in order to produce interesting and informative copy when the deadline date arrives.

tudents Learn Effective Speaking Skills The goal of this class is to help the student become more aware of the importance of communication, explains Miss Sherry Chamber- lain. speech teacher. This helps him develop the skills to become an effective speaker. Students involved in speech can use the experience in club activities, student government and other classes. During the class, the par- ticipants practice many different activities. They are involved in types of speeches which include role play, parliamentary procedure. oral interpre- tation and specific situation. Since indivudual expression is stressed, the class brings out interesting and individualized traits. Various hobbies such as musical talent. Indian rites, scuba diving and karate are demonstrated through different speeches. This year students participated in the contest at PJC. Nov. I 3. sponsored by the Escambia Speech Communication Association. Mrs. Marjorie Ed- wards, English teacher, as well as Miss Chamber- lain took students to the contest. This gave them experience in a non-competitive debate and increased knowledge and participation in speech related activities, explains Miss Chamberlain.
