These and similar remarks were not in an atomic bomb class but are just a sample of what Went on in some of the meetings in Miss Riley's room while the '52 Memento was under construction., The year was filled with work, problems, blunders, more prob- lems, and laughs as our annual was tenderly put together, Pictures were planned, taken, cropped, and mounted, write-ups had to be proof-read, typed, and then vari-typed, margins were settled and rigidly adhered top pictures and sometimes entire pages were blown up or shrunk to the standard set, the prom queen must be kept a closely guarded secret, and no one must inadvert- ently let the dedication leak out to the eager group, deadlines were set and met mere seconds ieforeg these, and a thousand other things, seemingly too minute to men- tion, but time consuming, had to be done, Since the yearbook is an all-school project, staff members are selected fran each class, the senior class being respon- sible each year for meeting any financial need the staff may have aside from money collected for subscriptionsu As the book is usually sold for a dollar and a half, the senior class finances about half its cost of production, The staff members and their positions are given on page eighty- five.
