r'We did the whole thing! The ROADRUNNER STAFF exists as an organization for e purpose of serving the entire student body and faculty. e annual staff has the responsibility of creating a mem- ly book. They worked diligently to pick the right pictures, le ones that would mean the most to the students. Many :urs were spent meeting deadlines set by the publisher. Several bake sales were given to meet the rising cost of having the book published. Although there is fun and good times among the members, very little time is set aside for pleasure until all the books are in the student's hands. To kick off the annual sales the staff dressed as clowns to attract attention, which they did successfully, so that stu- dents would be sure and buy an annual. l i i l li Regina Carolyn Vicky, Patty, and Dennis -at Bonnie, Joy, and Barbara

Oops! We only have seven pages. The publication of the school paper, the Blue Streak, wasn't one of the easiest undertakings at Wyatt. The staff was constantly alert to any news in or about Wyatt. When enough news and advertisements were gathered, the Editors began sorting, rewriting, adding to the stories, and constructing layouts. During the year the newspaper staff went to several iournalism clinics and contests. At the beginning of this year, the staff attended a journalism clinic held at Texas Christian University. At this clinic the staff was prepared in every type of writing, from editorials to sports, and the problems that occur in writing and gathering information. All the hard work seemed to pay-off since the paper changed many of its old techniques to more efficient methods. They concentrated on their features and art work to make it appeal to the students. Later in the year, the newspaper and various individual works were entered in the UIL contests held in Austin during March ninth and tenth. With the final edition of the paper, which was dedicated to the seniors, the staff realized their goal as a newspaper staff. They produced a written history of the O. D. Wyatt students and their activities for the 1972-73 school year. THE BLUE STREAK STAFF Editors ..... Mara Miller, Debi Morton News Editors .........
