lane Snyder Editor in Chief The Em Vee Hi, the Mount Vernon High School student publication, is published monthly by the newspaper staff, contributors, and the journalism class members. A great amount of work is put into each issue Writing, proofing, editing, setting up a dummy, and meeting deadlines are only a part of putting out a good publication. The Em Vee Hi is a member of the honor- ary writing society, the Quill and Scroll, and the Southern Interscholastic Press. Each year the Em Vee Hi has taken various awards and criticisms from the Southern Interscholas- tic Press Association. This year delegates from the Em Vee Hi attended the Southern Inter- scholastic Press Conference at Washington and Lee University, in Lexington, Virginia. In order to increase the number of subscrip- tions, the Em Vee Hi staff sponsored a draw- ing of subscribers ' names with tickets to ath- letic events as prizes. The Kick-off Dance for the commencing of the magazine drive, and the Talent Show also were sponsored by the newspaper. ’Em Vee Hi staff members prepare copy for press. Pictured above are: Cynthia A. Ben- nett, Joanne Ulrick, Beverly Vail. Marie Agnes Clarke, Kav Wall, Skippy Gould, and Joyce Terry.
