Some yearbook schemes presented at after-school staff meetings are more humorous than practical. M LTIPLE TALE T Encouraging the staff, taking pictures, writing copy, contacting typists, creating new lay-outs, and meeting the final deadline are all part of the headaches and joys of the editorial staff. The time and effort expended on each minute and seemingly unimportant detail is un- believableg while the rest of the school is completely dark, there is always the familiar light in Mr. Singer's room. The process of creating a yearbook is long and involved, and the co-ordination of the entire staff to pro- duce the '64 Wildcat must be carefully supervised and controlled by its editors. However, all the energy and Worry put into the book are well worth the effort as the exciting and suspenseful day arrives for the distribu- tion of the new yearbooks. This year the editorial staff introduced duotone pic- tures in the yearbook and designed its own cover. The theme of versatility was carried throughout the Wildcat by means of frequent copy and related cartoons.
