The Barker, our school paper, was started in October of 1944 by the journalism class. It received its name from the bulldog, our basketball mascot, and therefore, on the front of every edition there is a picture of a bulldog. The staff of The Barker is composed mostly of seniors, however, each class has its reporter. The Barker is made up and printed in school by the seniors. Before 'lThe Barker was started, the school activities were printed in a special column in the Gaston News called Gaston I-Ii-Times and later was printed outside of school in regular paper style, which was called The Gurgler. During the war, The Barker was sent to all Gaston High School graduates who were in service, and now it is exchanged with various schools.
