A Birdas-E e View Room 20 This year's newspaper staff consisted of approximately 25 students. The staff was a dedicated one putting in extra hours on their own time to put the finishing touches on the paper. The paper, which sold for l5c, was an improvement over the 1975-'76 issues. Last year's paper was only four to six pages, whereas this year's had six to eight with a special 12-page issue before Christmas. This year's paper also had a picture page. The 1595 charge for the paper did not cover the entire expense for publica- tion of the 'Wildcat's Roar.' Because of this the staff had to sponsor fund-rais- ..-,. .vv-uns 851155 - cg-'nn , .... .

Replacing her were Managing Editors Sherry Kaiser, Tom Wilder, and Randy Wroten. The 1976-'77 staff is the best that I've worked with at Novi High School. They care about what they're doing, and they have a tremendous amount of talent. Fourth hour is definitely the highlight of my day, commented Miss Ban, advisor. a. What are you doing Duane?

We've Come A Long Wa I KN -gk fps The yearbook class has come a long way since the first book came out. Each year they have put a lot of work into the book, which is not easy. A lot of people think the staff, just goes in the class, writes a few stories and puts a few pictures on a page. This is not true, they have to meet deadlines, write stories over and over again until they are perfect. Each year the book was bigger and bet- ter. We've come from paperback to hard cover. In the first book ever made there were only '70 pages and now there are 184 pages. Also in the first book there weren't any color pages and now there are eight. N 'X QXX il, '15 b , 4 , - X Q if uw There were three editors this year, Robyn Baker, Sherry Kaiser and Kim Arnold. The advertising manager was Greg Bischof, who set up ads to be put in the book. Julie Tobel was the Craine Correspondent, she scheduled the photog- raphers to come and take the pictures. It is not always hard work, Debbie McKee said, It is fun to put together a yearbook, seeing pictures of friends and to look back a few years and say I helped put that book together. , 1 1 Wag f JR 'X .ff Ifffv x 'lqb I f A C 4-Q ., yearbook Denise said Yearbook class was fun and different Kim was always willing to help The yearbook staff a.
