Em-Vee-Hi Left to right: Alice Kendall, Jerr Kidwcll. I Adem. The School newspaper, the “Em Vee Hi”, has been a challenging pursuit to its staff and reporters. We have all worked together to get out a newspaper pleasing to our subscribers. Each year delegates from the paper are sent to Lexington, Virginia, to attend the Southern Inter- scholastic Press Association. Among our rewards we received first p lace honors from the Quill and Scroll, a world-wide journalistic honor society. We are also members of the National Interscholas- tic Press Association, from which the paper obtains critical surveys during the year. In each monthly edition we distribute along with the newspaper the “Roto”, an international high school paper. Miss Osie Trimmer, our sponsor, guides us through our first year in Journalism, teaching us principles in preparation for our work as members of the staff. Whether we follow a career in Journalism or not, all of us will happily remember the tribulations, work and fun we had in getting out the “Em Vee Hi”.
