Q-NQJQ sw f .wg RQLJNSSJWNQSJ-:2w!.N'.4f A Members of the Fourth Estate found 1969-70 a challenge. For reporters working the national beat, there was the effete snob- bery charge of the Vice-Presi- dent ofthe United States to reck- on with as well as the constant attempt to uncover that silent majority . For the editor and staff of the Valley Scout the chal- lenges included attempts to cov- er events of a student body more apathetic than silent and a rash of underground publications which never failed to draw at- tention to the difficulties of the lateness of the student publica- tion. After an initial trial and error period the student journalists did succeed in establishing a code of ethics and continued in its QR .1 W their efforts to publicize and com- municate the activities of the students. Miss Dina Fisher served as editor of the Valley Scout and worked with a staff which grew from 4 to 21 members during the year. Staff members in- cluded: Richard Arthur, Christi Castledine, Charles Davis, Bill Duncan, Danny Echelmeyer, Ter- ry Gladieux, Leo Gusman, Renee Handy, Ferry High, C h a r I e s James, Marcy Latenser, Robert Nelson, Robert Noffke, John Ra- pineau, Norman Runyon, Marsha Soltz, John Willey and Frederick Vvyrsch.
