Due to the rising price of paper, the price of HTenshunN had to be raised to five cents. During this year we learned that some of the students were not very prompt and the paper was not always out on time. We were sorry! Some of the columns that were in the HTenshunu were the Spotlight, Gossip, Sports, Inquiring Reporter, and Assembly. The staff this year included: Jill Zimmermann, John Lensi, Dwight Reading, Ronald Becker, Catherine Wolf, Ronald Johnson. Eileen Long, James 0uHara, Dorothy Donnelly, Louise Grieco, Evelyn Bellow, James Sanders, and Eleanor Monson.
