Fenqer Courier :.-.... NEWS STAFF - PIONEERS IN MORGUE BUILDING Inspired by an excursion to the famous Tribune Building, filled with rising ideas of their own greatness, the members of the Fenger News Staff braved criticism and plunged head first into the idea of producing a morgue such as larger publications possess. They emerged successful. A morgue, despite its hideous name, is nothing more formidable than a large file, a record, of all that appears in the paper, carried on year after year. The various journalism classes having often felt the need of an accurate record of events of former years, decided in favor of building up the much-needed morgue. Every seventh hour on Friday was devoted to the advancement of the new project. To give the reader an idea of it, we present the following picture. Working on the morgue is something a bit unusual, so Friday becomes a welcome day for the staff. Two young ladies, none other than Eleanor Klee and Nadezdia Grigorieffa, are seen writing neat captions on long strips of paper. These read something like this, Glee Club-September to February, 1928-l29. Gives assembly on October 5, l928 . Sophie Bartus and Helen Gutowsky do their shares by cutting articles from unused copies of the News and clipping them to oblongs of paper on which headings or references for each article, have been written. Madeline Sheridan and Pearl Magnuson help the cause along by gingerly thrusting their fingers into a large jar of mucilage, pasting these clip- pings on file cards, grumbling volubly at the stickiness of the glue. George Feld and Edward -lern approached the file case with little packets of these same cards labeled S , m , t , or p , to be alphabetically arranged. Veronica Tunkis, Wanda Bogowicz, and Adeline Knapp are heard holding a lengthy discussion as to whether Veronica should clip items from Vol. 12 No. 6 of the News, Wanda paste them on cards, and Adeline file them, or vice versa. Kenneth Hine and Ferdinand Kopp are neatly printing headings on the guide cards. Now when Edward Miazga or Eloyce Gemler wish to find material for feature stories on the history of the Proms or of the band, he or she need only go to the file and obtain under the words Prom or Band full information for the past year. Josephine Edelstein has, for the day, been appointed general distributor and chief executive and is handing out the necessary papers, clips, and paste. Jennie Houtsma and Miss Mildred Taylor are verifying the spelling of a long list of Phorex members. Having taken the responsibility upon their shoulders the members of the present News Staff will carry until graduation, whereupon they will deposit it in the hands of their successors-the News Staffs of the future.
