Extra! Read all about it! may often be heard from newspaper boys in such cities as New York, London and Paris. Our newspaper staff may not be so well-travelled, but they keep us informed through HOOFPRINTS, their very own pride and joy. However, their sponsor, Mrs. Hopkins. related one of the tragedies of a modern- day newspaper. We spent hours and hours typesetting copy, then someone made an error by pushing the wrong key on the computer and we watched all our copy blip away across the screen . . . Yet, the staff won awards for their efforts: first place in Columbia Scholastic Press Association: and first place from lthe Virginia High School League. ' The newspaper publicizes people. events, issues and news which affect the L4 GRHS audience in a responsible stylistic manner. We concentrate on features about students, faculty, hours in school and in the community, student opinions in all areas, Mrs. Hopkins said. The staff is made up of volunteers from journalism classes. One of the Time re- porters said he was impressed with their interviewing skills. As a matter of fact, if a reporter doesn't like the way things are done, the staff's motto is Love it or leave it. What is a magazine with a flying horse on its cover? PEGASUS of course! As with any horse, though, not to mention a winged horse, you need a special training school to tame the wild breed. These flying Stallions met on Wednesdays under the loving supervision of Mrs. Sharer and the riding master -fe Editor-in- Chief. Aubrey Hodges. The staff also con- sists of volunteers, who contribute their time and energy to create this work of art. The objective of this illustrious Riding School is to provide an outlet for young writers. artists and photographers. They include poetry. pen and ink drawings. short stories, essays and black and white photographs in the magazine. PEGASUS won a second place in the Virginia High School League. With the implementation of the publications pack- et, their sales increased from 300 to about 700 copies. The staff hopes to make im- provements and to publish a quality magazine, with the increased funds. said Mrs. Sharer. - Michele Nltellimfgoi' Clubs 119

I I I u lj Qn weird Wednesday Miss Mitchell proves she's just one of the gang. ix X W ' . E! ...Jim - EQUUS: Up ladder: Mrs. Barrineau e Sponsor, Ton Arviola, Wendy Gross, Chris MacKinnon, Paul, Crist, Miss Mitchell W Sponsor, Leonard Conner, Natalie Martin, jennifer Acey, Carol Mac- Donald, Iames Pearson, Shane Larkin, Karen Shes- ler - Editor-in-Chief, I-ledssen Serrano, Scott Kephart. Not pictured: Michele McGregor, Gary Worster. Dawn until Duskn 9am Sleepy editors and staff pound on the school door on a Saturday morning. 10am Typewriters can be heard clacking. In the darkroom, buzzers going off and irate photographers cursing for the day they will see the sun again. 11am Copy, pictures, and layouts are floating around room 105 being checked by various editors. 12pm I'm hungry, grumble several staf- fers. Let's go for pizza! holler Hedssen and Paul. All right, agree Chris and Wendy. I'm for 7'Eleven, says Nichelle. Yeah, I can get my peppermint slurpee! l' interjects Leonard. I just want a coke and a Snickers bar, Mrs. Barrineau states finally. Miss Mitchell doesn't hear any of this as she is busy typing senior stats and mis- ses out. Wait, I don't have any money, Michele dejectedly says. Do you want to borrow a dollar? ask Gary and Tony simultaneously. Finally Carol looks up from her walkman and says, I'm hungry! Anyone for lunch? as all the staffers just laugh. 1pm The same old grind of copy, pic- tures, layouts, pencils, rulers, croppers, calculators and stylebooks. 2pm Photographers bring more newly de- veloped pictures. 3pm Mrs. Barrineau goes for a Coca-Cola run. 4pm Someone finally turns off the blar- ing music to some softer working tunes. 5pm Food run again. 6pm Work, work, work, and even more work. 7pm Still more work. 8pm Still even more work. Another batch of pictures. 9pm Leave the cleanup for tomorrow. says Karen. We'll be back. This is the mighty EQUUS staff, working from dawn until dusk. What is the EQUUS? It is the yearbook: it records the events and personalities . . . We just asked what the EQUUS was: we didn't ask for a narration. All right, you want to know what it is. Ready? Here it comes. This is a place where craziness runs ram- pant. You be yourself: you make new friends. You learn a skill by putting together a literary work. You must also like The Pretenders, Pat Benatar. judas Priest. Rush - shall we go on? Being able to play trashcan basketball can be helpful. You must either know the hunt and peck or the pick and punch methods of type- writing. Above all else, you must be able to have fun, but work, work, work. However, always remember. even though the yearbook staff acts crazy. the work we do can only be compared to that of the construction company that built the Empire State Building. - Michele McGregor Clubs 1 2 1
