Viecc' Sometimes led by Carl “Side Burns” Sherman, Jackie “Man Happy” Hampton, Janis “By-Line” Spencer, and Betty “Mountain Gal” Arrendale, the Tiger Tales Staff staggered through the school year going to press every other Friday, though sometimes just barely. This group was not void of the usual crop of characters: “Hot Rod” John Leach and Gail “The Mouth Murrell did a “cracked job of sports reporting, sometimes even attending the games: Diana Blalock and Gwen Wilson, a couple of hot-and-cold buddies, dropped by a couple of times a week to say hello; then there was Evelyn “I’m Sick” Singer, Charlotte “I’ve been to every store in town” Welty, Del “I came late” Elkins, and Charolotte “Switch-Blade” Wilson. tew---. scbooVs tbe vea sr£ s Educational activities coordinated into the subject matter included the following: Training in argumentation (sample subjects—autos, senior activities or lack of same, going steady) and rationalization (‘I’d have my story but: had to go on trip, car broke down, didn't dream it was due, only had three weeks) . «« ijic ' In spite of all. however, the Tiger Tales was as lively as in previous years and, at five cents a copy, enjoyed a fine year at the box office, only losing about fifty dollars per issue. When asked if he would like a second year with THIS staff, Mr. Prouty, the advisor, stiffened noticeably, while large beads of cold sweat became profusely evident upon his aging brow. Attempting to con-rol himself, he stammered, “Has it only been a year?”

PEACH OF A PAIR—Editor Jane Townshend looks up from her work and Sports Editor Paul Eakins files some papers. Mugget Staff The 1958-59 Nugget staff had the herculean task of turning out 850 books of 168 pages by the end of the school year. The staff members—slaving on the book from start to finish—often times stayed after school and spent many of their Saturdays “chained to the desk” to compose a lively book of the year’s events. The Editor-in-Chief, Jane Townshend, also acted as business manager. Helen Marie Nelson, the hardworking art editor, was in charge of picture arrangement. Merry Lattin was text editor and proof reader. Taking sports pictures and tracking down sports items was the job of Paul Eakins. Joan Robertson was overseer of advertising, and also did much of the typing. The sixteen pages of advertising were divided among the staffers and each member had to sign up a certain number of advertisers.
