2 WILD 'N CRAZY Quick! Do you have a photographerf Mr. Copeland, that gorgeous coach with the blue eyes, is going to surprise Mrs. Mize with a birthday kiss. Were piercing the ears of a 90-year-old lady. We know what a good sense of humor you have. We want to take a picture to sur- prise Mr. Hagmannf' Theres a pick-up on fire in the parking lot. We have some award winners. Please come take a picture. So, experienced and inexperienced pho- tographers were dispatched from the journal- ism room to take pictures of everything from groups to Rodney Greenlee sitting at Princi- pal Leon Hagmann's desk.

But, there was a time someone poured color developer into a tank of black-and-white film and the time the camera scratched the film as it rolled through to the take-up reel. not to mention chopped-off heads and streaks and thin or over-exposed negatives. Being a yearbook photographer also meant not being in pictures, Sometimes des- perate. they would pose for each other. say at the Buffalo Den. but the editor would not use those pictures. Being a photographer also meant trekking across town to a cancelled track meet, or using valued gasoline to cover meetings and field trips and sporting events. Quickl Do you have a photographer! Yes, we do. Lori Talley and Mark Schertz goof off in Mrs. Nataline Whitfield's sixth period class Cafeteria worker Sue Thompson atlxertises an associates age on her day of birth.
