Expansion was the key word on the 1975- 76 KOINE staff The KOINE was enlarged to 192 pages — eight addition pages More color was also added to make the book nnore appealing The staff was ex- panded to 19 members By the end of the year there were six cameras on the staff, two staff cameras and four staff members ' cameras Many of the pictures by all these photographers were developed by the staff in Mrs Ginger Preston ' s basement There are hopes for a dark room to be put in the tiny lanitor ' s room the staff called our room Within those walls of our room were some very good times Birthdays were cele- brated to bring the large staff closer The cakes were a big attraction for members to drop by the room Cheescake was the fav- orite until one murmured doubtfully. I wish I could get to like cheesecake but I just can ' t. If the members had gotten any closer they would have been breathing down each others necks especially if the whole staff were in that tiny room at one time. After two trips together, the first to Longwood for the Delmars Yearbook Workshop and the second to U VA to receive another trophy for the KOINE, the staff got to know each quite well. The staff won the school door decorating contest and celebrated Christmas on the first Saturday of vacation Like any other staff, hours were spent after school working on the yearbook but when laughter could be heard coming from that tiny room, the staff knew it was to be their book TOP Business Manager Lynne Pyrtle adds up the number of yearbooks sold while Nan Wall adds up the amount of money turned in RIGHT At UVA.

Proudly, the new National Honor Society members came up on stage to receive pins, certificates, a handshake from Mr Don Merriman, and to sign the membership book.
