You guys had better hurry up — that dummy has to be done in an hour. PUBLISH OUR WRITTEN RECORDS Developing journalistic talents isn ' t the easiest thing in the world to do, but it is one of the more interest- ing activities offered at Ossian. As each of the 16 issues were put to bed, as a true blooded journalist would say, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, especially John and Ronnie. Interviewing teachers and guest s.peakers, hurriedly typing a news story that broke just before the dummy was to be sent to Bluffton, and trying to find something to fill up that empty space on the last page not only kept our hands busy but helped us develop a nose for news. Another edition hot off the press is about to be distributed by Jerr ' , Duane, and Joe. SEATED: L. Dafforn, D. Biberstiw, V.. Werhng, R. Kaehr, J. Woodward, J. Hetrick, M. Resler, B. Roussey.

Rex and Judy are using one of their sales talks on Miss Glass. The north office sees quite a bit of activity be- tween October and March, as everyone races to meet the various deadlines. The Oracle Staff, under the guidance of Mr. Fullhart, sold more ads and subscriptions this year than ever before. Trying to round up people for the different pictures, and identifying people in the various pictures resulted in more than a normal amount of confusion, but despite all of the hurrying and worrying, all of the deadlines were met and the I960 Oracle can now take its place with the Oracles of the past. Working to meet the deadlines requires good teamwork. 24
