Deadlines unite paper, yearbook Deadlines were the one thing that both newspaper and yearbook staffs ex- perienced. Although times were hectic, the satisfaction of a job well done was very rewarding. Many hours of work and dedication went into the publication of the student newspaper and yearbook and the result of this was evident. Going to a workshop at Kansas State University started out the year for both newspaper and yearbook staffs. They both learned more tips and ideas for their respective publications. Various topics were discussed and offered students a broad outlook on their publication. The N W' Explorer, the student newspaper, was edited during first semester by students in the Journalism 2 and 3 class. However, because of the reduced class size of the advanced class, students in journalism 1 edited the newspaper for the second semester, First semester editor-in-chief was Senior Paula Jeffreys and Senior Skyla Baker held the position second semester, Final plans were made by the Szlfrferfib yearbook staff during a trip to Josten's Yearbook Company in November. While at the Topeka plant, the staff was given a tour of the facility and were able to see the many different steps in- volved in printing a yearbook. After touring the plant, the staff sat down with a couple of in-plant artists to discuss the final plans for the 1983 Szlvemp. Yearbook staff members were faced with producing a quality yearbook with as many color pages as possible, but with keeping the price as low as possible. Staff members increased the number of pages in the 1983 book by 12 and added four additional pages of four-color pictures. The initial selling price started at S15 and raised to 1518 after Dec. 1. Students participated in the Regional Kansas Scholastic journalism Contest at WSU. junior Bruce Adams placed first in editing, junior Anita Zelmer placed third in yearbook layout, Senior Skyla Baker placed second in editorial writing, and Senior Kenny Evans placed first in editorial writing. Nine journalism students were in- itiated into the Northwest Chapter of Quill and Scroll in March. Initiates were Shane Applegate, Connie Biggs, Kelli Brown, Shannon Casey, Kenny Evans, Shelley Larnm, Kandi LaMar, Brian Stewart and Anita Zelmer. 'Qt 128 ' Newspaper! Yearbook
