Upon opening this book you noticed a clock, a clock which ticked away the minutes thai make up this year. The purpose of this Tattler is to keep those minutes safely tucked away out of the reach of forgetfulness. Since high school life naturally falls into the two di- visions, Work and Play, we have divided our book in that way. The calendar in which we have incorporated copy and illustrative photos will combine the two sections. In the two division pages you will find Associate Editor BETTY CHARLESWORTH Editor HENRIETTA PREHN something new as far as Tattlers are con- cerned, photomantage. Then, a little farther on as another new feature, we have given you an insight into the deep dark pasts of our head men. We have tried to make our copy the kind you like to read. There are more informal pictures of both students and teachers. We have devoted every available space to the most entertaining feature of any annual, the cartoon. For the first time in many y ears the covers of this book are in our school cclors, red and black. In the Work section are included the var- ious departments with the clubs and organiza- tions connected with them. Individual pictures of the seniors and juniors, and group photos of the sophomores and freshmen follow. Above the senior panels, you find pictures and write- ups about members of the class of 1942 who are outstanding in some field ranging from music to athletics. The two pages showing the accomplishments of the graduating class through picture and paragraph are another added feature. Continuing our amble through the pages of this book we come upon the Play section. This division will bring back the most pleas- ant memories of all. We have given things a different twist by grouping individual pictures of our football heros about an action shot. The basketball section is handled in the same way. So that each game stands out more clearly and distinctly, we have included a thumb-nail de- scription of each basketball and football game. We regret that several activities such as baseball, track, and the senior ball could not be included in this year ' s Tattler. Due to the early dismissal of school it was necessary to have the copy at the printer ' s before the open- ing of the season of these activities. Due to the mid-year graduation of many of its members the staff was decreased in num- ber. Much credit must be given to the remain- ing members for their willing cooperation in taking on added duties because of this. It was their combined efforts which made possible the publication of this Tattler. 26

J-ke yl titto One of the hardest working and most de- pendable organizations in high school is our schoolpaper staff. Positions on the Mirror staff are open to any student, regardless of class. The only qualifications necessary are ability to write and willingness to work. This newspa- per work offers valuable experience to the stu- dents. The Mirror staff this year set a record by publishing a paper every two weeks. When the call was made for students interested in helping to make their school paper a success, the results were most gratifying. After a few copies had been edited, the number was re- duced to the size of a workable staff. The co- operation and interest of the staff was some- thing to be marveled at. The members of the staff learned the dif- ferent types of stories, how to recognize news, how to write up a story in an interesting style, how to sell advertising, and how to approach people for interviews. Much of the success of the Mirror is due to the business men of Stevens Point who again came through with their support, making it possible to distribute the paper free of charge to the students. The Mirror has no other source of revenue except that received from advertis- ing. Mr. Speerstra was the editorial and me- Editor CARMEN BROOKS Associate Editor DOHOTHY ROSS chanical advisor of the Mirror this year. Under his supervision, members of the advanced printing class put in many hours after school and on Saturdays in order to insure publica- tion every two weeks. Although the print shop was rushed at times with more work than they could possibly do, nevertheless, they put other things aside when an issue of the Mirror was due. Through the mid-year graduation of Car- men Brooks, the editor, and Dorothy Ross, the assistant editor and advertising manager, the Mirror was at quite a disadvantage the second semester, but it was published regardless of these handicaps. ■ -.-- 28
