news about SC OL The school notes, published weekly in the Good Thunder Herald, had their face lifted this year. The news s taf f, under the direction of Mrs. Ling, changed the style and makeup of the high school and grade news. This year there were no class elections of members to the news staff. Anyone interested in news reporting could become a member of the staff. Rather than presenting the news by classes, as has been done in pre- vious years, the reporters are given assignments and bring in t h eir news stories to be edited 'by the editorial staff each Monday. This eliminated over-lapping and repeti- tion. Reorganizing our news in this way has given us a better news coverage of school events. This plan also gives reporters actual ex- perience in the Writing of news stories and articles. It tends to give variety in coverage and do away with the repetition from week to week of school departments in some papers. ' Some features, however, that proved of interest in the past yearsi such as -- Chatterbox, Mystery Character and Senior Biography, were retained.
