Producing a paper takes a lot of time and dedication involving layout, in- terviews, pictures, and selling ads. 0 The other school publication is the yearbook.

The orchestra, made of mostly McNickTs own students and graduates, provided the music. John Vennemeyer, the actual fiddler 0n the roof, and Erich Frank, the wedding clarinet player, each turned in splendid solo spots. Sr. Judi, Mr. Salerno, Mr. Mahaffey, and Mr. OtConner are deserving 70f much praise for their efforts in making the show a success.
