Yearbook Grows Again Room 247 harbored the bustling head- quarters of the yearbook, Alpha Omega. Armed with fifteen staff members, the yearbook began with an extensive sales campaign. Sales surged to a total of more than 1,520 subscriptions. Alpha Omega members valued time as an essential factor in creating the'240 page annual. Pictures were scheduled, information was com- piled, and deadlines were met. This staff agreed on new designs, changes, and the addi- tion of twenty more pages in the book. Annually presented by the yearbook staff, the Coronation of the ideal senior girl was en- acted. This Christmas Coronation of Miss Alpha Omega unfolded with the lively music of the stage band, a fine medley by the Madrigals, and the procession of the candidates. Suspense ran high until commentator, Bruce Fritz, an- nounced Barb Myers, Miss Alpha Omega 1966- 67. Staff photographer, Steve Schwartz, cap- tured the happy moment as editor-in-chief, Dave Humphreys, presented Barb with a dozen red roses.

Current social, academic, and athletic events were covered as well as per- tinent school issues. Tiger Tales rolled off the press in the graphic print shop under the watchful eye of editor-in-chief, Linda Lindbloom, and co- editor, Mike McLaren. Issues hit the press on topics like the Junior College Referendum, the Christmas Coronation of Miss Alpha Omega, and the Homecoming Week. Special holiday issues conveyed the festive spirit with car- toons, features, and interviews of the season. Tiger Tales staff rushed to meet dead- lines. Reporters scouted up stories, editors planned pages, and the editor-in-chief pasted down the layouts. Tiger Tales produced eigh- teen issues for the '66-'67 school year.
