Annual Staff Time out from the busy routine for a little fresh air. 1 ' n ■ri if III!!!: The Seniors discovered that the first issue of the Ho-Hi Hi-Lites was diffi- cult to release . But out among the sunlight and trees the staff begins to look forward to largs and better issues of the paper. Ho-Hi Hi-Lites Staff Almost . . . ! Everybody has been working as hard as they can to get this month ' s edition of the Ho-Hi Hi-Lites out on time. They have finally gotten all of the news to- gether and have it typed on the stencils . It is now being run off. In a few minutes all of the paper staff will begin its rat race around the typing table to assemble this edition of the paper and Mr. Redfearn will be sitting there with his hand so tired it won’t know whether it can staple one more copy or not.
