Compiling a pictorial and -written record of the activities of Midlanders was the year- long task of staff writers of the 1948 War- rior. The largest enrollment this year in the history of Midland merited the publication of a book larger than that of any other year. The 1948 book also is distinguished by the fact that it is the first to contain a kodachrome, or three-color processed pic- ture. Warrior-sponsored events during the year included the second annual presenta- tion of the Petrow Memorial Award to the outstanding Midland athlete of 1946-1947 and the eighth annual presentation of the Charm Revue. Staff writers this year were the following: Loueva Pflueger, editor; Jack McCall, as- sistant editor; Leo Jugler, business manager; Jim Youngquist, assistant business m:n- ager; Roger Gieschen, sports writer; and Norma Hille, Dolores Mikkelsen, Beverly Burch, Dorothy Vopalensky, Jean Newman, Erik Bye, Bob Hartwig and Bill Heller. John G. Van Riper and Mary Reynolds were faculty advisers.

Efforts were rewarded as they observed with what antici- pation their fellow students awaited the dis- tribution of each edition. Setting the pace for staff members was edi- tor Donna Splinter. Paul Kuenning this year completed his fourth year as business man- ager of The Midland. Assisting him was Jim Bowman. The position of sports editor was filled by Ken Dulo. Other writers were these members of the journalism classes: Wilma Bruner, William Heller, Jack McCall, Jean Newman, Bob Hart- wig, Bob Barraclough, Harold Buesing, Bev- erly Burch, Erik Bye, Roger Gieschen, Norma Hille, Willard Meier, Dolores Mikkelsen, Mary Ann Reuter, Dorothy Vopalensky, Betty Law- rence, Margaret Sancha and Bernice Bryant. Advisers were John G. Van Riper and Mary Reynolds. Memories of these journalists were the tak- ing over for a day of the offices of The Fre- mont Guide and Tribune and the publication of the April Fool issue. Page 54
