id Ls SMILE! Headed by Mark Sjoblom, the college photography staff proved to be the backbone of the PIONEER and YELLOWJACKET publications. Long hours spent in the darkroom on developing and printing helped to make the PIONEER a better yearbook. Photographers were also seen venturing to the far corners of the campus in order to get a new angle on campus life. A veteran staff of Mark Sjoblom, Keith Hibbard, Marc Bacon, and Alan Griffin was aided by several newcomers in shooting casual and group pictures. Quality improved as the hotographers gained experience, and Photographers, Pictured L to R: Marc Bacon, Bill Patterson, Van Abel, Steve P cee g P J Haglin, Mark Sjoblom, Pete Haney, Alan Griffin, Keith Hibbard. their dedication and diligence proved worthwhile. etapa ee ne oer Cage peepee bow Pete Haney, aided by Benjamin Assam, sets up to Camera in hand, photography coordinator Mark Sjoblom capture close-up soccer action in a light drizzle. prepares to try a different angle on a nature shot. 137

YELLOWJACKET Under the leadership of Editor Doyle Peterson, the YELLOWJACKET maintained a steady pace and also managed to improve in quality. The staff was able to meet a full production scale by putting out a fifteenth issue of the paper, far exceeding the accomplishments of previous years. Discount coupons were also more plentiful and were appreciated for late night snacks and Sunday dinners. Stan Watne’s popular ‘‘Calling 'Em Close’ column came to a close with his graduation in December, but senior Andy Briggs took over in the spring semester with his ‘Athlete's Footnotes.’’ A major highlight, although officially disowned by the editor and staff, was the surprise April Fool’s edition of the BUMBLEBEE, which was well accepted on campus. 136 Papers busily scattered in front of them, Editor Doyle Peterson and Layout Assistant Paul Milanowski plan the layout for another YELLOWJACKET.

MISSIONARY UNION Missionary Union concentrated its efforts this year in two main areas. For the first time Missionary Union became directly involved in the planning of Missions Emphasis Week. Lynell Friesen, President, and other members suggested topics for Seminar Sessions which it was felt would interest students. Prayer Bands were also formed, their thrust being to support LeTourneau College Alumni who are on the mission field. Each group concentrated on one particular continent, and prayed specifically for the mission work there. Mr. Don Connors, as advisor, assisted in preparation for the bi-weekly meetings. He suggested slide presentations, films and speakers. Films were chosen which portrayed aspects of a particular continent or country. Wings For Witness met throughout the year on Monday mornings for prayer and fellowship, and also held some special weeknight meetings. The group grew in size and effectiveness as the year progressed. Practical assistance given to Missionary Aviation groups included installation of radio and navigation equipment ina LAMP Cessna 185. Helio One belonging to JAARS was also refurbished by the group during the summer months. Alumni of the College now in Mission Aviation were supported through prayer and correspondence. Wings For Witness installed radio and navigation aids in this LAMP Cessna 185 before it was delivered to Canada for mission work. 138 Members, Pictured L to R: Robert Mantell, Lynell Friesen President, Marc Rettig, Larry Allen, Gary Lundberg, Anita Chasteen, Lois McFarland, Vicki Murano, and Ruth Mcintosh.
