Staff captures top honors Cutlines, headlines, deadlines — they're all in a day's work for the Journalism 1 and II classes. The highlights for the second-year students was attending Press Day at SDSU in Brookings, where they sat in on journalism workshops and also discovered that the 1984-85 edition of LHS Live and the 1985 Buccaneer had won All-State awards. LHS journalists also took home a Top-of-Class award for most overall points in the compe- tition for schools with enrollments of less than 100. Journalism II students also attended a Josten's yearbook workshop in Aberdeen. Journalism II students spent most of their time in class working on the 1986 Buccaneer and were responsible for choosing the yearbook's theme, cover and overall organization. The students served as go-fors and orga- nizers for visits by Hardin's photogra- pher Terrance Ketterling. Beginning journalism students learned the essentials of newspaper and yearbook journalism. The class learned how to use a 35mm camera, develop film and print pictures and also how to write news stories. Journalism 19

Nine members of Mrs. Julie George's drama class also present- ed a one-act play. A Young Lady of Property was directed by three- year drama student Deb Jasmer and performed for the junior high and the parents of the drama class. I really enjoy drama. Since direct- ing is another aspect of drama. I'm glad I'm getting a chance to do it and learn as I'm doing it, stated Jasmer about the experience. The drama students also tackled the tasks of oral interpretation, reader's theatre, pantomime, duet acting and monologues. Sets, lights, makeup and cues were some of the worries of the actors in the two-act comedy Up the Down Staircase. Drama 21
