BUSINESS STAFF Under the capable supervision of Mr. Mayberry, the Business Staff had each of its members solicit Ads from various business concerns which made the contest for Business Manager highly competitive. Advertisement has played an important role this year. The Business Staff secured the largest volume of advertising in the history of the Lincolnite. Other departments of the Business Staff functioned as smoothly. Secretary, Bessie Pierce; Asst. Manager, Lucile King; Associates: Tracy Scott, Mildred Franklin; Circulation Department: Manager, Andrew Howard; Asst. Man- ager, Barbara Burton; Associates: Maxine Cooper, Wayne Nelson, Henrietta Tellis, Helen Brown, Eula Fisher; Asst. Cashier, Ruth Royal; Asst. Auditor, Fannie Lovingood; Typists: Sarah Price, Marion Walder. EDITORIAL STAFF The Editor-in-Chief, Miss Marguerite Johnson, and the Sponsor, Mr. Bryant, ably assisted by the staff have put together each little piece to this giant “jig-saw” puzzle to make it a pictorial record of student life. An unusual contest was held in April, and each student desiring to be on the Editorial Staff designed a dummy. Miss Johnson’s dummy was judged the best. Miss Willa B. Mitchell, Photograph Editor, ranked second; Miss Laurice Hestle, Organizations Editor, third; Miss Bernice Richardson, Art Editor, fourth; Miss Carmen Robinson, Technical Editor, fifth; Miss Lillie Bryant, Literary Editor, sixth; and Miss Frances Edwards, Sports Editor, seventh. Technical workers and typists have contributed to this book to make it unique among Lincolnians. Page Twenty
