CDW nu 0 ,265 TILLICUM STAFF The Tillicum Staff as you see them are a hard working bunch, as well as a good looking bunch according to Mrs. Olsen, our advisor. Edna McMaster, the Editor in Chief and her capable assistant, Margaret Thompson have worked diligently and untiringly in the interests of this fpeskyl annual.-That's the wa-y they feel about it sometimes. Audrey Blechsehmidt, Advertising Manager, and her interested assistants, Gordon Theriault and Marvin Butl-er went after advertising with a vim and all things being considered, were very successful. Harold Murray, Business Manager, and Harold Clodius, Circulation Manager, with his assistant, Corressa Shull -are going to sell annuals when they are out so fast that it will make your head swim, if you haven't already paid your deposit for one. Dorothy Easter, our Art Editor has given up valuable class time to grant our wishes at a moments notice. Jewell Erekson, Snapshot Editor, was unfortunate with her snaps sometimes, but we have plenty anyway. Katherine Baker launched forth in the realms of Society and what she didn't do, like a good editor, she got someone else to do for her. Literary, Athletics and Jokes were collected and contributed by Dora Gibson, Willia-m Perry and Alice Anderson. All have done their part in making the annual what it is, either good, bad, or indifferent, and hope you will be well pleased even with the worst of it. They have tried to put in things to interest and amuse you, from the 8th grader to the best known alumni. They know their work is not perfect but hope you will accept it at its best for they have worked with a will to make it good. -lWritten by one who knows. P. S. Of course by some hook or crook all the blame for this annual was shifted from the shoulders of our class advisor to the innocent members of the staff. We feel this is unfair as the Tillicum has been made possible through the efforts of Mrs. Olsen and any pra-ise should des-ervedly belong to hef. -THE STAFF Page 22
