92 Statesman ‘Man Against Time”’ Reflects Staff Concern Martha Hamill proposes a possible revision to material that she and Claudia Byrd are considering for the STATESMAN. Each student who attended George Wythe was faced with an immense problem. He had to choose a course—whether to merely exist or to excel. With this decision in mind the STATESMAN chose as its theme, ''Man Against Time, ' represented George Wythe and its students. The issue proved George Wythe to be the epitome of increasing proficiency, with each student individually reaching for excel- lence. With co-operation from staff members, Tim Brown, editor-in-chief, and Martha Hamill, associate editor, strove to present the school’s theme through dramatically executed layouts. They also made changes in the conventional art section and devised other new approaches for presenting the students’ efforts. All students, as well as the staff, were offered a chance to express their thoughts. In turn, they ob- tained praise for their talents and attained a feel- ing of personal achievement. Literary Editor Jim Bruce, Layout Editor David Hamill are amused at another of Exchange Editor Emilie Bray's attempts
