; Bittersweet = staff recreates memories Six p.m. “What do you mean, we've sent in page one-seventy six? I've got it here! A desperate section editor imp- lores a photographer, “You must have a picture of the LG! somewhere!”’ He ges- tures mutely at a huge stack of proofs: she shakes her head in despair and begins to search through them. ‘Come on children, the deadline’s tonight’’, Mrs. Schalliol coaxes. Everyone turns to sneer at her, a moment of laughter, then every- one’s back to work. The work? An attempt to capture a school year on paper, a permanent record of Penn high during nine months of its history. What these people are mak- ing will endure for years, will probably become a treasured possession of almost every graduate and student of Penn They are fashioning a true ‘'memory bank ’. Frozen for alll time on its pages are the precious moments, information, and faces that will serve to recall a fleeting Slice of time, the priceless year of high school. Years later, perhaps, the voices will be forgotten, the memories will fade, this year will be buried in the depths of remembering. Then, dig out that musty, yellowed yearbook, page through those long-ago good times. The people have changed, aged, but they live on in your mind just as they were in 1975. Copywri- ters, photographers, layout editors, and of cours e, our fearless leader, all think it’s well worth their effort Nine o'clock p.m. A grin slowly spreads over Mrs. Schalliol's face as she contemplates her staff. ‘All right, kiddies — Four dogged workers wearily raise their heads from their work. ‘‘Let's take time out for the Yearbook Pledge’. Sud- denly none of them are tired, and their voices echo down the halls of the deserted school. ''| love yearbook! Unh unh, unh! Top Typing was Kelly Forrest's main job when it ior directory.

Inexpert staff gains experience Some obscure caveman started it with a scrawl on the wall of a cavern. By recording an armadillo hunt that he found Particularly interesting, he began a tradi- tion that has continued for thousands of years, that of informing the public. He probably never realized what he had done, that generations later his primitive splashes of color would evolve into a huge business, an important part of our daily lives, a strong influence on the pat- terns of thought of whole nations—and the bane of a few million journalism stu- dents. The public's right to know is its pri- vilege but the newsman's obligation, and anyone who has ever worked within the media will tell you that putting out a peri- odical is an incessant frantic scramble. So it is with the Pennant staff, There is a sense of urgency that permeates the entire operation; writing stories, taking pictures, developing, cropping, retyping, typesetting, paste-up, repairing oddly cut and stepped on paste-up stories, until the finished sheets are delivered to the printer Fatiguing? Nerve-wracking? Of course —these people aren't machines. Gener ations of desperate newsmen have cursed that long dead caveman, but if you catch one of them during one of their rare moments of calm, they'll admit that they're proud to be his descendants.
