hesaurus - A rare disease of the lymph nodes? Future staffers for the Spectrum and Timekeeper often come from the Journalism l class, a course with the goal of teaching basic journal- ism practices. This year's class was small, but several members showed a lot of potential. The only new class in the Journal- ism department was Photo- Journalism, taught by Ms. Joye Oak- ley. Students learned developing, printing, and other special darkroom techniques. A girl's restroom in the one-story building was taken over by photographers as a darkroom, but shortly after the start of the second semester a new darkroom was con- structed in Ms. Oakley's classroom. Photogrpahy students improved their techniques, some entering contests and having their photos printed by the Specturm. Several plan on being staff photographers for the Timekeeper or Spectrum next year. Plans are also inthe making for an advanced photography class. Any interested members of either the Spectrum staff, Timekeeper staff, Photo-Journalism class, or Journalism I class were asked to join the Future Journalists of America QFJAJ. Sponsors, Ms. Joyce Oakley and Mr. Sam Effinger, boosted the club through their efforts to promote new students. The club was small, but that did not hinder their activity. A party was held to start the year, soon followed by a T-shirt sale. Blue Shirts lettered with the phrase Moore Journalists do it daily were worn by members when they at- tended the OIPA state convention at OU. Meetings were held monthly, and such guests as KOFM disc jock- ey Annie Austin and Members of the Oklahoma Daily, the OU news- paper, came as speakers. Four members, along with Ms. Oakley, at- tended the National Scholastic Press Association QNSPAJ conven- tion in Kansas City over Thanksgiv- ing. Officers of the FJA were Karen Duncan, president, Jonathon Shook, vice-president, and Lisa Batey, secretaryftreasurer. FUTURE JOURNALISTS OF AMERICA.

hesaurus A book that makes you seem smarter than you are Having set a goal to become more active in school happenings, the ll- brarians started off the year with several projects during Homecom- ing Week. The library aides, along with Head Librarian Jane Johnson, Assistant Librarian Lois Hartman, and Secretary Janelle Spencer, de- signed and built a mini-float for the Homecoming Parade. Keeping with the theme of Making Moore Tracks, the front double doors were decorated for the door decora- tion contest sponsored by Student Assembly. Among the most requested books were One on Onef' Star Wars, and The Hobbit. A new policy was implemented by librarians, in which students were given a Courtesy period -that is, if a book were brought in no more than four days late, there is no fine charged. Taking the prize for the smallest club at MHS was the Future Teach- ers of America fFTAl. Each club member is an officer, and they are as follows: Janice Hurst, president, Carrie Nelson, secretaryftreasurerg Patrina Ausbrooks, histrorlang Scott Knight, chaplain. FTA sponsors were Ms. Mandy Deming and Ms. Anne Brinkley. REALlN' AND A FiOLLlN' are Butch Primm and Roy Fleming as they replace a lamp in one of the 16 mm projectors. FTA.
