Colophon PASSAGES 84 is the stor - of 1983-84 ' s Perry Meridian High School events and persons. The book was assembled camera-ready by the student staff and sent to Jostens ' American Yearbook in Clarks ' ille, Tennessee for publication. The book has 256 pages of 80 pound gloss paper. Thirty-one of those pages are colored, while the re- maining 225 pages are black and white. .AH body copy is set in ten point Tiffany Light. All captions are eight point Tiffany Light , with the ex- ception of the captions on pages ten through 49 which are set at eight point Oracle Italic. Headlines are 24 point and 30 point Tiffany Bold or 18 point Tiffany Demi. The poem on pages two through nine is set at 12 point Oracle Italic. The copy in the Faces section is six point Tiffany Light. The narrative section of the book rims from page one to page 172; the portrait ad index section of the book runs from page 173 to page 255. The assembly of a yearbook is much like working a complex puzzle. Many pieces must be organized and fit together. If one piece is lost, the puzzle is incomplete. Every puzzle, when complete, is a picture. Like puzzles, yearbooks should create a picture. The challenge is to make the total an interesting unity. With this in mind, I sat down with my adviser ' , Mrs. Wanda Strange, and other members of the orginal editorial staff to decide upon a theme which would tie all of the 1983-84 pieces together. After two weeks of deliberation, the theme Where the Sidewalk Ends, Magic Begins emerged. The theme centered around the construction of the now complete auxilary gym. Also, the fact that entering high school, as well as graduating, thrusts individuals onto new sidewalks of life. The fact that a sidewalk had to be moved to accomodate the new gym was helpful in persuading Mrs. Strange to go along with our plan. With that theme in mind, optimism in heart, and pica rulers in hand, we set out to produce Perry Meridian ' s best yearbook ever. We worked diligently for five months on this book. With an excellent start, we looked forward to Indiana University ' s High School Journalism Institute. Plans were for the editors to spend two weeks in the summer planning and developing ideas and new techniques for this book. One day in early May, meek, mild Kristen Mueller ' 84, valued copy editor, informed me that due to cir- cumstances beyond her control she would be going to school in Nashville, Tennessee, during her senior year and would be unable to help finish PASSAGE ' S ' 84. If that wasn ' t enough to ruin my day. Leach Cross ' 84, photo editor, informed me that he would move to California during the summer. Kelly Norrod ' 84, design editor, Mrs. Strange, and I were to say the least, worried about replac ing the lost editors. Finally it wa decided that Kelly and I would cove the vacant positions for th remainder of the book. Mrs. Strang was pessimistic. As usual, Mrs. Strange was right Two weeks into the new school year the search for a proof reader began Shortly thereafter Luci Duerigen ' 8i took the position. Luci irkei ed up to the title of copy editor. Th photo editor ' s responsibilities wer covered by Sonya Baker ' 86 an Jan Brown ' 85. Several professional firms wer employed by the staff. Underclas and senior photos were taken by Roc Photographers. Josten ' s America Yearbook published this bool Accurate Type did all of the typeset ting. On behalf of the staff, I would liki to thank Mr. James Head, principa-i Unlike many other principals, Mi; Head has experienced high schoc ' yearbooking and understands th problems encounted along th- sidewalk of yearbook production. Many thanks to the following in dividuals for their advice, support and understanding: Philip Mr. Phili Winning, Josten ' s representative. Mi Ray Dobbs, Root representative; Mrs. Marjorie Dompke, Mr. Lyndoi Wall, Mrs. Barbara Burton, Mrs Virginia Zorman, Mrs. Helene Pur dom, Mrs. Arlene Autry, Mr. Rober Dunn, Mr. Ron Bolyard, Mrs. Angii Patterson, Mrs. Marge Boger, Mrs Vickie Winning, Mrs. Vera Fredeni burg, Mr. Ken Knable, Mr. Roberi Strange, Mr. Pooh Strange, Mr) Roland McGathey, and Mr. Roland Bud Jefferies. Their help was great ly appreciated. I would also like tfi thank the PMHS faculty, the studen body, and especially the PASSAGES staff for their cooperation.
