EBB TIDE Records Jean Makemson. Johnny Grif- fin. Linda loaird. and Suiie Smith go through tho litos to chock tho spoiling of nomos and oach parsons activities. This is tho most timo-consum- ing part of tho Sanior pagos. I'll do H tomorrow' seems to bo the mumble of words coming from Johnny Griffin as ho lies down to rest. Another staff member has gone down under the weight and late hours of the lest minute rush. The club section was done by Suzanne Miles. Marilyn Hunt, and Millie Price. Clubs is one of the biggest jobs in the book because there are so many people with whom you work. Staffers bleed, chop, end cut as the EBB TIDE begins to take shape. Does it sound more like a hospital than a year- book room? Words such as these fly as deadlines loom into view. Staff members are chosen by Mr. E. B. Elder, who care- fully scrutinizes each applicant for the staff. Students are chosen for art and writing ability. Typing is also helpful. Students must be highly recommended by their English teachers. Many hours of hard work are put into the EBB TIDE, which happens to be one of the largest yearbooks in the state. Many times on Saturday, instead of a sunny day at the beach, the staffers are pounding away on the typewriters in good ole' 117. More than once has the Staff worked until after 9:00 P.M., trying to get their various sections com- pleted and sent to press. Karen Stevens. Phil Cross, and Ava Camp are the busy staffers on the sports section. They can be seen running from one end of the athletic field to the other or at any L. H. S. sports event in South Florida trying to get a new angle for a picture. The organization section was planned by Margie Wright. Marty King, and Sandy Johnson. All three were new to the staff at the beginning of the year. They run all over town to get just the right setting” for each picture.

Barbara Walker is in charge of the sale of the EBB TIDES as Circulation Manager. She also has charge of the distribution of the books when they arrive in the spring. The EBB TIDE is blessed with the most fashion- able photographer in town. Mr. Jun is be- witching in his bermudas and straw hat. It is rumored that he wears his hat to bed. Seriously, the staff is certainly lucky to have such a competent photographer across the street. Millie Price keeps all the staffs money straight. The expenditures range from three cents for a postage stamp to several hundred dollars for colored pages. Her first job is putting everyone to work selling ads. E. B. Elder The advisors for the staff are Lorraine Force. Blanche Bazanos. E. B. Elder. Mary Engle, and Llewellyn Shekmar. Mrs. Force helps with all the art work and gives good Ideas for layouts. Miss Bazonas helped Barbara Walker with the sale of books: Miss Engle scheduled all the Senior pictures: Mr. Elder and Mrs. Shekmar proof- read all the finished pages. Barbara and Judy smile with relief as the last pages of the book are finally shipped off to Texas for the publishers. No wonder they are happy. The pages are only three weeks late!

Year at L.H.S ■ The EBB TIDE Staff would like to take this opportunity fo thank the many business con- cerns in Fort Lauderdale for the use of their buildings in our pictures. We would also like to thank Mr. Jun and Mr. Elder for running all over town to get the pictures and the teachers at L. H. S. for letting us take every- one out of classes. Interviewing All-County football players. John Doe! and Eddie Broddy. is all in a day's work for Karen. No wonder pretty girls want to be on the sports section of the EBB TIDE. Sail Byrd and Jeannine Pittman draw up the Sophomore pages. While everyone else is enjoying themselves at Christmas parties, these two girls love to work on the EBB TIDE. Wendy Taylor and Carol Flinn are in charge of activ- ities. They have fun getting the fifth-hour staff to help decide the settings for oil the superlative pictures. For days they walked about asking. What was the fad in October? or What was the hit song of Jonuory? for the calendar. Carol Berardi. Norma Combs, and Pam Hyde match pictures with names for the Junior pages. This sometimes proved to be quite a problem. They too spent much of their Christmas vacation at school working on the EBB TIDE. Karen Hanks and Dorothy Stein- buch form the staffs art depart- ment. They make posters in the fall and spend the winter planning new and original layouts and draw- ing clever caricatures. Gail. Carol. Suzanne. Johnny, end Jean seem to be quite excited over the new ideas they've found in the annuals.
