THE TRUMPETEER The first edition of the High School newspaper, The Trumpeteerg came from the press in the fall of 1946. This paper was started by a group of Freshman girls who were in the sewing class. Someone sug- gested that we have a school paper and everyone was very much interested. Since the girls were in the sewing class, they decided to name the paper, The So and Sew News. The reward for their efforts cgi'- -w student body liked and accepted their paper. The second year the staff decided to change the narne of the paper to The Morrice Trumpeteer. Duri- ing the sarne year the-Eafper entered the 1947 T. B. contest to do its bit toward fighting the dreadful White Plague. The Trumpeteer was very much honored to win both .Eze and national awards. These awards are very precious to the whole staff. This year we have a much larger staff: each member is making a real effort to maintain a high standard of journhlism. The paper is very well liked and has become a necessity in and out of school life. 48
