PRINT SHOP CREDIT The 1948 Comet yearbook was printed by the boys in our High School Print Shop. Joe Funfgeld, foreman; Fred Bartels, assistant. This project took hundreds of hours of skilled work. Joe Funfgeld, in charge of pro- duction, worked five periods a day and after school since April 5th. Fred Bartels spent three or four periods and after school. Wenner stayed a number of evenings to slip sheet and help wash up presses. Joe Funfgeld and Fred Bartels locked up the pages, did the press makeready, made press runs. Joe’s outstanding, faithful work is mainly re- sponsible for the entire job. The makeup, composition, binding, and the dozens of specialized job necessary were done by the A” Print Shop boys. Each day they came in to learn and execute a different detail necessary for its production. The special overlays made for each picture were by Bartels, Funfgeld, and Walter Clegg, Joseph Knipfing made the cover design and the linoleun cut for printing. The boys responsible for the actual printing of this $1500 project are: Joe Funfgeld Walter Clegg Russell Swift Joseph LaMarca William DeVine Stanley Wertheimer Charles Brown Fred Bartels John Susczynski Joseph Froehlich John Wysolovski Carl Hille Matthew Tringali Joseph Knipfing A job well done. I appreciate their effort. C. Ray Adams Printing Instructor
