BRUBY, Larry, MARY Evuz, Cx-mr, Raoul RUTH, WEB, V112 1939 Alfcimta Hits New In presenting to the student body, our college in the light of the Day, the Boy, and the Girl, we of the ALFARATA staff feel that ours has been another step forward in the production of Juniata publications. In sleeping over, worrying about, and continuously associating with the material of this book, we have grown to realize that in it an entirely new side of our college life has been touched, a side that in future years should prove the foundation of our most cherished memories. With the book beginning to pass the skeletal stage and with the tedious work of many a winter's evening behind us, we of the staff began to feel and realize the power behind our theme. Through this, a closer association grew within our group, developing a greater sense of cooperation along with an ease of action conducive to the desired , work. Thus in giving title of the 1939 ALFARATA over to you, its owner, it is our hope that yours will be a realization of the joy and value received at Juniata through the closer association of the Day, the Boy, and the Girl. We who return for another year and thus another book will greatly miss the graduating members of this year's staff. Gone will be the unique originality and able plan' ning of cofeditor Garner, whose connection with the ALFARATA began after two previous years of journalism on the school paper, the JUNIATIAN. Accompanying him down the lane of experience will be cofeditor Thoman taking with him an ever present touch of finesse, a rare and desirable talent for any staff. Having delved deep into financial matters for the last time, our popular and eihcient business manager, Mark King, is to be found involved in the dual purpose of completing another advertising cam' paign and developing a capable successor-another King, we hope. Rounding out those who pass to greater books we find subfeditors, Mary Heller, Martha Brubaker, Ruth Cramer, Chal Lesher, Bayard Hedrick and Ives Harvey, supreme powers in their respective departments of activf ities, staff personalitiesjathleticsglfaculty and features. 19 High iii Yearbook Technique Now, with the completion of this edition, the ALFARATA room again becomes but a barren interior of dusty desks and tables, a forgotten center of the past, bled of all utility. Yet, just as we hope that this book will bring back and keep with you the high lights of your four years here on the hill, we also know that to us it will lose outward appearance in that every page will connote some memory of its production. Therefore with a myriad of memory secure within these covers it is our sincere hope that you will find well repref sented the part that was yours while here at Juniata. The Staff caught loajing UQ X Y ll

REINHARD E. KONRAD Instructor in German MARGARET MCCRIMMON Assistant Professor of Modern Languages Art and Languages Editor and Business Manager GEORGE B. CLEMENS look over the latest Edition. Instructor of French DR. IDA WALZ Kumrz Professor of German uniata journalists Sn TheB d h oy an t e Girl of Juniata are journalists. If they are not themselves members of the fourth estate, they at least read the production of those students that are. Th 1' ' ' ' e andmark of journalism is our old Wediiesday evening friend-THE JUNIATIAN. The story of the I inferior in interest to one of those Horatio Alger tales that used to stimulate potentially rugged individualists to deeds of high finance. I h ' ' UNIATIAN is a success story hardly n s ort, it 15 a story of rags to riches. Or, perhaps, it would be more accurate to express it as a story of wo df l ' o pu p to printed newspaper. One day the sheets that make up the JUNIATIAN are merely a stack of paper in the way at I. G. Lesher and Son, Printers. And then, a day later, they have mysterf ' 1 1ous y acquired a large amount of newsprint, and are being distributed in various ways. This seemingly fortuitous happening comes about not from divine intervention, but that of a number of students h w o generously give time each week that th e paper may O opi' for News and Gossip be. There are, of course, those who do not ' b give, ut whose time is taken anyway. See any Freshman for details. The actual writing and editing of the JUNIATIAN ' is carried on by the Editorial and Reportorial hierarchy. This is ruled by the Editorfinfchief and his imm d' e 1ate assistant editors are the Managilig, the Contributing, the Sports, the News, and the Feature Editors These assign articles to the numerous reporters, and later edit the fruits of this sowing. Everybody along the line bee wails his hard fortune-but wouldnit trade his job for nfty million dollars-or maybe just hfty. The Business Staff has as its task the financing and distribution of the paper. It is the job of the Business Manave l ' ' g r, no ess, to see that there is money, and that no idea of the editorial staff for a tenfpage, special issue with l co or illustrations and a three hundred dollar deficit ever ' gets past the dayfdream stage. His assistants are the Advertising and the Circulation Maiiagers. gzou
