Judie Padget Editor Mr Steve Carlson Advisor Grant Cook Sports Editor .JuClY Hooper, Business Manager Mrs. Gretchen Jewel, Business Advisor Putting a yearbook together is not an easy task as the 1960 OCCIDENT staff can well attest to The average person not connected with yearbook produc tion does not realize the tremendous amount of plan ning time effort and money that goes into an annual The 1960 OCCIDENT had its beginnings in the fall of 1958 when Mr Steve Carlson advisor an nounced that Judie Padget then faculty editor of the 1959 yearbook would be editor in chief of the 1960 edition Judie immediately began plan ning a year in advance for the book that she would edit By the spring of 1959 she had selected a staff a publisher and a theme for the following year Page allotments for each section had already been devised and each staff member was assigned a position Over the summer months there were many staff meetings and much confusion but by the time the fall term began everything was fairly well orgamz d Ad sales were under way pictures were being taken copy being written and the wheels began to grind Carmell Quast faculty editor obtained all faculty pictures before the opening of school She was one of the first to begin paste up Jerry Lynch Ad manager began his sales cam paign All students on the staff were assigned ads to sell Total sales added up to more than twelve hundred dollars enough money to get the book started. Business manager Judy Hooper was kept busy sending out bills to collect ad money. Joyce Arhu- tick began the circulation. Diane Walkowski Grant Cook and Judie began to assign pictures to photographers assign copy to copy editor John Stokes and finally everything was in full swing. Everyone was kept busy during the entire year. There were many after-school work sessions and a lot of overtime was put in on Saturdays too. A lull did not come until April when the last picture had been taken the last copy had been written the last page pasted, and everything was shipped off to the printers. Senior staff members could take it easy, but all was not at rest in 127. Already, the cycle was be- ginning again. The editor of the 1961 yearbook had been chosen, and she, in turn, was choosing her staff, her theme, and her printers. She was be- ginning another book . . .
