Yearbook staff has co editors “It’s interesting working with a per- son of equal job description,” said Cyndi Thornton who was co editor with Paula Martinez of the 1983 War- rior. “It helps to have someone sharing the work load of checking the pages,” said Paula of the arrangement. “This is the first time I’ve tried hav- ing co-editors. Both girls had the quali- ties of an editor, and I couldn’t decide for one over the other,” said Mrs. Dorothy Rucker, yearbook adviser. The other major change in the year- book was a reduction in pages. “Bud- gets are tight, and the prices keep go- ing up. Compromises had to be made,” said Mrs. Rucker.

Newspaper receives face-lift “I had four kids who knew the basics of the news- paper process,’ said Miss Cindy Muir, newspaper adviser. “We just picked up from last year. The responsibility was on six people and they knew what they had to get done.” The paper received a face-lift when it gained a new name “Warrior World” and a new cover design. Wider columns of type and printing on a full 8” x 10” sheet of paper completed the changes. The newspaper staff began producing the programs for sporting events adding $200 to the newspaper’s budget. This extra money enabled the staff to replace some necessities such as an additional light table, extra newspaper supplies and a roller to press stories and pictures flat on a layout page before it is printed. Most of the staff competed in the Kansas Scholas- tic Press Association Regional Contest in February. Liz Brunner and Sandi Clark placed at regionals in their events for the second year. This earned them a chance to represent the newspaper staff at state competition in April. NEWSPAPER: Row 1: Janet Wolfer- sperger. (2nd semester).

Team teaching adds to Vo-Ag Changes in the vocational class- rooms included the team teaching of General Shop and the addition of a food dehydrator to the Home Economics department. “I enjoyed it,” was Mr. Fran Ar- nett’s feeling about team teaching. Responsibilities for teaching the General Shop class were shared by Mr. Gary Jones and Mr. Fran Ar- nett during the first and last nine weeks of the year. The remainder of the year, Mr. Jones taught alone. Students learned a variety of things from stripping furniture to welding. A food dehydrator was pur- chased for use in Miss Cindy Muir’s Creative Cooking classes. The food dehydrator allowed the students to compare foods dried in the oven to those dried in a food dehydrator. Another change made was the integration of FHA into the Home Ec. classroom. This was done to help coordinate the efforts of FHA and Home Ec. Throughout the year Horticulture II students supplied classrooms with a variety of potted plants and fresh flower arrangements. On Valentine’s Day the students provided many downtown businesses with flowers. Here. Darla Criger. Carol Swan. Sheila Phil- pott and Denise Strasser make an arrange- ment. Working in pairs.
