Spur Supplement New Addition to ' 69 Yearbook Writing copy, assembling pages, taking pictures, and meeting those long dreaded deadlines are but a few of the things in the never-ending cycle of year- book production. Spur ' 69 began in the summer under the super- vision of Mrs. Glynn Bates. A staff of approximately 12 people made the many decisions that arose in this creative undertaking. In the developing of pictures, the school darkroom proved both money and time saving for the second consecutive year. Among the bottles of chemicals, papers and filters used in developing pictures, a new enlarger was purchased to replace the one used last year. Many hours after classtime and many hours at- tending journalism seminars and workshops keep the yearbook staff members up with current trends. In June two staff members, Nan Noblitt and Patty Sepulveda, participated in a week-long work- shop at Trinity University in San Antonio, working in the yearbook section. There they planned the opening section of the yearbook. Five members, Patty Sepulveda, Alan Reeves, Nan Noblitt, Mary Harding and Phil Reeves, attended the yearbook division of a one-day workshop Sep- tember 23. Cover designs and special effects were emphasized at these sessions.

This is the first year in existence for the second year class, held third period, and also the first time the Radar has come out on the first day of school.

In August, Kip Martin, Diana Cherne, Pam John- son, Phil Reeves and Alan Reeves attended a two- day workshop sponsored by the University of Texas Journalism Department.
