N ewspaper Set Backs, No Problem Typewriters tapping, papers shuf- fling, and total chaos: this is the state that the newspaper room is commonly found in. Passers-by often wonder how a paper gets put out at all, but somehow the Panther Prowler managed to roll of the printing press on time each month. The staff had many set backs this year. One of the major problems was the lack of students on the staff. It was hard for seven people to turn out a paper in a month. At the beginning of the year the Prowler was given a mark of excellence from Quill and Scroll for the preceeding year's paper. The goal this year was to prove that this award was well deserved and to produce the best newspaper the PHS had ever seen. The staff, led by Virginia Sutton, the new advisor, and Karen Brown, editor, added several new touches this year. Full page photo layouts were added to two issues, and a gray screen border was put around the ads to set them off. In May, the staff produced the biggest paper that PHS had ever seen. A 20 page paper dedcated to the senior class was put out. The Prowler staff learned to han- dle a lot of responsibility. They had to work hard to sell ads for the pa- per, since this is the way the paper is financed. Several times the staff did not sell enough ads to cover the cost of the paper, so they had to get a head start the next month extra ads to make up for the loss. The staff also learned to deal with criticism. With a new advisor, and almost all new faces on the staff, they all had to adapt to each other and learn what was expected of them. — Newspaper 67 -
