Adds to N.I. David Brinkley, one-half of the popular news team of Huntley and Brinkley appeared in Midland with Northwood Institute playing host. : The usual signoff —“Goodnight, David; Goodnight, Chet’”—was in the air but the message he gave to Town and Campus members at the performance on November 19, 1966 was this: ; “The most important thing in telling news on the air is the writing. The secret doesn't lie in toothy smiles or melon-shaped tones. You should tell the news so that people will listen to what you’re Saye: not how you are saying it; so they won’t be aware o sentence structure and use of language.” This was the highlight of Brinkley’s appearance; it was his message he meant to bring. Visitors to Northwood have added a great deal of knowledge and often a great deal of enjoyment. Name personalities were at the campus for various activities including luncheons for Town and Campus members. Through this cultural background, Northwood stu- dents have had the opportunity to look further into the further, or to just imagine what it must be like to live in their world. Stars like William Mooney have created laughter for Northwood students. The monologue dubbed “Lalf-Horse, Half-Alligator”’ provided an interesting look into the past. However, it was not always the stars who brought down the house with their statements. Barry Gold- water, in his conference with Northwood students, caused quite a stir too. His references to possible candidates and to the opponents made an interesting session for students. It is with this in mind that we present these pic- tures aS amemory of Mooney, Borge, Brinkley, Leven- son, Goldwater, Lady Jackson, and all the rest. vA

Student editors assign articles, write headlines, and do lay-outs during the one-week program for newspapers. Highlight of the entire week includes things like live jazz concerts for rec- reation, but more, an awards banquet held in honor of the out-standing conferees of the work- shop. Trophies are given to the winners and there are other awards which cause great competition between the conferees. Time... for Study Part of the Northwood experience during the one- week program is learning to be your own master. Here high school students master the art of getting to know each other while still producing a paper on time. Copies of the paper and other information is sent to the individual conferees after the workshop is held. Editors help with problems as best they can with guidance from staff counselors, but news- Papers and the yearbook are all put out by the students themselves. 101
