While gaining practical aid in journalism, the pupils produced the school's newspaper, the Panther, and yearbook, the Palm Echo. Speech and Drama attempted to improve students' eloquence and acting abilities. To accomplish this feat, drama students produced The Bad Seed while speech debaters jour- neyed to county-wide sessions.
