SENIORS AND THE SCHOOL PUBLICATIONS The members of the Class of 1930 have had an important part this year in the development of three publications from the single publication, The Evanstonian magazine. The present seniors are responsible for The Senior Year Book, published for the first time this year in its present form. David Phillips is the editor; Carl Davis, business manager; Russell Lane, art editor; David Danforth and Douglas Grimes, assist- ant business managers; and Elizabeth Flanders and Ruth Thorn, assistant art editors. In former years the June number of the magazine and the senior year book were published under one cover. With this number, however, the senior year book becomes a commencement supplement to the newspaper instead. This decision was made by the Board of Publications, whose opinion it was that the pictorial and review features of an annual are more closely related to the news sheet than to a literary magazine. In this year ' s book the seniors have tried to give more pictures and descriptions of the School and its activities than were given in other years. The editors felt that these would be interesting to graduates in later years. To those whose drawings and articles have enriched these pages the editors wish to express their gratitude on behalf of the students and the School. The literary magazine, The Evanstonian quarterly, has a goodly representation of seniors on its staff as well as among its contributors. The editor-in-chief, Laurin Healy, the associate editor, William Mock, and the business manager, Carl Davis, are all seniors. The seniors represented on the staff are Thomas Beers, Barbara Brown, Ethel Clayton, Randell Cook, Mary Danforth, Harriet Davidson, Gertrude Dolke, Fredrica Dolke, Howard Emrich, Elizabeth Flanders, Gertrude Fox, Charles Gage, Kenneth Hecht, Jack Hubbard, Florence Jakes, Janet Kingore, James Kittleman, Philip Kober, Russell Lane, Frances Philbrick, Herbert Philbrick, Virginia Swift, Ruth Thorn, Kermit Schulz. The seniors have carried another responsibility this year of giving the body to the magazine through their contributions of longer articles such as short stories and longer narratives and essays. The excellent cooperation of the underclassmen, also, in writing and subscribing for the magazine has proved that the students appreciate such an oppor- tunity for literary and artistic expression as the magazine offers. The newspaper, which has about eighteen hundred subscribers this year, had its start last year in the High School news contributed to the Evanston News Index and The Evanston Review. Among the seniors who acted as reporters to the local papers, thus taking a first step toward a school newspaper in their junior year, were Thomas Beers, Charles Gage, Jack Hubbard, Russell Lane, Janet Kingore, and William Turner. This experiment, which was continued also for a few months this year, made possible the publishing of a school paper. The seniors who have made the staff are Thomas Beers, Thomas Christopher, Ellwood Crawford, Miriam Brandt, Russell Lane, Jean Plate, Eugene deKieffer, Virginia Mangold, Hazel Walz, Richard Speer, Virginia Mich- aud, Esther Gehr, Jack Hubbard, David Rice, Janet Kingore, Charles Gage, James Bow- man, Herbert Lundahl. These three publications, the newspaper, the literary magazine, and the senior year book, have given the seniors ample opportunity to exercise any journalistic or literary talent there is in the class. If we may judge from the interest shown in high school the Class of 1930 should be represented on the publications in the colleges which seniors will attend after their graduation. — Charles Gage.
