A place for everything Publications staffs co-host TAJD convention As two weeks into the summer rolled around, dedicated members of the year- book staff worked to finish up their assign- ment and start a summer life. Since moving into a new room, oppor- tunity for others interested in some jour- nalism related career or since adding a new dark room, photography was a choice to be considered. Everyone got their own drawer to keep their yearbook material togetherf' said Kim Allen, editor, but no one was ever sure where anything was. ln the fall members in publications were asked to help host the Texas Association of Journalism Director's Convention in downtown Fort Worth. Members of Richland publications also helped. They helped in doing things such as registration and organizing speakers, Mrs. Jennifer Tomlinson commented. At competition during the convention Sharon Pelzel placed in yearbook layout and design. On their return to school most that had attended the convention were greeted to the class of On Campus Suspension due to being out of place after curfew. Many referred to this class as honors OCS. During the year the 1981 BUFFALO placed All-Texas Honorable Mention in Texas High School Press Association, a first rating and All-Columbian at Columbia Scholastic Press Association, first class by the National Scholastic Press Association, and at the lnterscholastic League Press Conference editor Wayne Trimble won first in theme idea and second for his in- troduction. The yearbook itself received the Award of Achievement. April Van Dever entered a picture she had taken of herself and two friends in the Parent Teachers Association Cultural Arts Fair and was selected the winner from Texas for national competition. This year there has been a varied group of people from athletes to band and choir to Highsteppers to ROTC, Mrs. Tomlinson described the yearbook staff.- wa Jud Kim Allen explains why some layouts won't work and why some look better than others.

Scholarship to four Letters raise eyebrows, as did Floyd cartoons As exacto knives disappeared and rubber cement oozed from its cans, 21 members of both the advertising and newspaper staffs slowly began to paste-up another paper. Members of the news staff all knew that stories were due on Mrs. Jennifer Tomlinson's desk by no later than Monday before the paper was to come out. Ads were expected the same day. This left only one week for the reporters to investigate and interview for the information needed to reveal the whole story from all points of view. Government teacher Mr. Pat Pruitt required students to write letters to the editor. Opinions on the carpet, school politics made reading the editorial page a must. A new face in the paper was Floyd, a cartoon character created by sophomore Bret Bertholf. Floyd, a realist, added a little controversy to just about every issue. Sometimes we had to censor Bret's cartoon. They were practical situations, but we knew better than to run them, said Mrs. Tomlinson. In the summer the staff traveled to Arkadelphia, Arkansas, along with the newspaper and yearbook staff of Richland with schools from all over Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Arkansas. ln competition with 50 ADVERTISING others Sheri Drysdale won best news story. In other competition at Texas Association of Journalism Directors Convention, Sheri Drysdale placed second in feature writing and Neal Quimby received an honorable men- tion in editorials. The spring issues of 1981 Images placed All-Texas in Texas High School Press Association. At lnterscholastic League Press Conference the 1982 fall issues were recognized with the Award of Distinguished Merit. ln individual UIL competition Steve Mylius won third in feature, and sixth in news, Glenda Frady, third in editorial and fifth in news, and Neal Quimby placed fifth in editorial. Steve and Glenda advanced to regionals, where Steve was alter- nate to state in feature writing. To receive the Women in Com- munications Scholarship is quite an achievement. At this time four students have received and renewed their scholarships. Out of 26 offered, Steve Mylius and Sheri Drysdale won scholarships. Both Wayne Trimble, editor of the 1981 Buffalo now at- tending Baylor, and Larry Osborn, senior at North Texas majoring in advertising, renewed their scholarships.l mf V,,..v ? .'.llf f' is. is 1 -s I Xi git! i H gf! . . n 'li Q. 1
