REPORTERS CLUB For many years, an activity which has attracted much interest among the student population at Marcellus Central is the Reporter's Club. This group is composed of members from the junior and senior classes and any person with a knack for reporting may join. Each week, the club gathers, writes, and edits the news for the school news page, Echoes From the Halls of MCS, in the local MARCELLUS OBESERVER. Under the guidance of the editor, Richard Case, and the adviser, Miss Ruth Mar- cley, the reporters meet on Wednesday of each week when assignments are given and plans are discussed. Then the stories are written and the page composed on the following Mon- day and Tuesday after the news has been gathered. At the beginning of the year, various departmental editors were appointed and they supervise the gathering of the news, Assign- ments are divided among the 40 members of the club and regular beats such as sports, music, and clubs are covered by the editors. Members of the Commercial Club type all mae terial before it is sent up to the newspaper office. In February, the reporters took a tour of the Syracuse Herald-Journal Office and learned much about how a big newspaper operates. Also the page won second prize in an Onondaga County Health Association contest for an editorial Our Tuberculosis Associa- tion, which appeared in the OBSERVER during November, The members work together to help improve the material published on the page.
