THE 1928 PASEON Paseo Press Staff lthough Paseo is in but its second year, the Paseo. Press staff has had this year the honor Of publishing the first newspaper of this school. There was the difficulty Of establishing the ideals re- lated to the press, and in this light, only the most conservative Of ideals were chosen On which to build this publica- tiOn's principles. The staff has tried to make the Paseo Press representative, to the most minute: detail, Of the every day life Of Paseo, and to further the attempt which the staff hopes has proved suc- cessful, the class has called in the aid of many students, and Of course, the faculty was ever ready to give the reporters news. On October 7 the first Paseo Press was presented to the students who were to be the real critics. Qn December 22 there appeared a literary supplement in conjunction with the regular edition. The supplement was contributed to by pupils Of English classes outside Of the journalism class, and was composed of essays, sketches, poems, short stories, and plays. The art work in the supplement and in all regular editions was done by pupils in the News Illustration class supervised by Delle Miller. All copy went through the hands of Miss Helen Keohane who was the power behind the Pressg thence to the printing classes in- structed by Mr. Voth. It is to these that the staff turns with thanks for their especial and unceasing cooperation in making the Paseo Press a successful ven- ture.
