This year Arista showed the same division that the school showed: its staff was split between members of the morning and the afternoon sessions. To incorporate the work of the sophomores, juniors and seniors into a book under one theme was the task undertaken by Carol Wildenberg, the Editor-in-Chief. She worked the longest hours of all in Room 50 supervising the layout, production, and copy arrangements for all the other editors. Before the great mass of details could be fitted into the picture, the rough outlines of the year's work had to be drawn. Production Managers Debby Steinberg and Judy Schlessel met with Carol to decide the layout for the forthcoming Arista. The Production Managers also supervised the photographers and arranged the schedules for taking pictures. As soon as a definite form had been arranged, the copy was assigned to Gary Goldberg, Copy Editor. After the write-up policy had been determined, the written work started. Steve Wilson, Boys' Sports Editor, and Terry Rubin, Girls' Sports Editor, sent their reporters to the football, basketball and girls' hockey games to com- pile the necessary information on Great Neck's athletes. Izzy Rosenberg, Activities Editor, kept her charges happy by having them investigate every club, organization, and sponsor in the school. The staff worked madly to beat the final deadline, and at long last all copy was in. M The photography staff was under the leadership of Jackson Storm and Bruce Lieber- man, Every student's photograph was co-ordinated with a write-up as Nancy Meckler, Senior Section Editor, reduced three years of high school history for each senior into a two-inch space. Typing up all the copy was supervised by janet Kunreuther and Linda Pollack, Co-Typing Editors. Janie Eisenberg and her staff identified assorted heads and torsos with their owners' names. Barbara Greer and her staff invented the captions seen under the candid photographs throughout the book. When all the material had been laid out in sections, Ed Kirshner, Art Editor, drew the dividers that have so enhanced the book. He also designed the cover, end papers, and the symbol of Arista for this year. Busy selling the Arista to local merchants before it was complete was Bruce Burns, Advertising Editor. The job for him and his staff was made especially difhcult by the current economic situation, from which Great Neck was not exempt. Busy selling the book to the student body was Gary Steindler and his staff, who supervised all monetary transactions. Posters designed by Ed Kirshner were used for the drive as well as home- room representatives and the P. A. system. The sponsors, Mr. Booke, Mr. Davis and Mrs. Armstrong, directed all the student efforts to the desired end-the publication of this year's Arista. 16

GUID PO T From the narrow hallway and its two adjoining rooms, known as the Cage,l' wafted forth daily the conversations of the newsaper staff, and, weekly, their finished product, the Guide Port. What hand could manage this chaos and turn it to order? Mr. Fields, the sponsor, set up an elaborate hierarchy. Yet the success of this yearls paper was due more to the quality of the staff's contributions than to any singular organization. Lenore Veit, Mr. Fields' urighthand girl, was in charge of editorial policies, supervised article writing, and arranged for interviews. She, of course, bore, more than any other, the chief burden of responsibility. Carrie Vogel, the Associate Editor, set up the photographs, and was the final check on copy. Each page of the newspaper had its editor. Cynnie Norris, News Editor, was responsible for the most-seen page in Guide Port-the hrst. She was plagued with writing articles in the past tense about events that were yet to come. Wendy Doniger, the Feature Editor, took charge of all the poems, short stories, interviews and special series that appeared on the second page. Ellen Faust, the Co-ordinating Editor, had a difficult task in preparing her items each week, for the third page combined material found on the other three pages and more, such as the book reviews. Page four, avidly read by all sports fans, was the responsibility of Ed Lublin, Sports Editor. Every item of copy had to be read three times and, if necessary, be rewritten before it was published. Carol Levenson, Copy and Re- write Editor, wore her eyes out at this task. All the assorted heads, hands and feet that appeared throughout the issues were gathered on film by Mike La Monica and Bob Steinberg, Photography The Xenographs,,' often seen, were culled by Margot Fox, change Editor, from other school newspapers. Jeanne Blank, Editor, was the last step before the printer's. There were less publicized activities, also. The awful balancing the books was performed by Barbara Schiffman, Manager. Soliciting advertisements and arranging for their the paper was Arthur Hirsch, Advertising Manager. Dick Editors. the Ex- Twins task of Business space in Bassuck, Circulation Manager, distributed the paper each Wednesday, and Penny Reisman, as Office Manager, kept the staff happy by supplying supplies. 18
