Unique In Every Way With every staff different each year, the Paw Print changes style and technique. Not being able to take Creative Writing two years in a row meant that every staff had a style of their own. Only one senior, Laura Al- exander, chose to battle out deadlines during her last year. Laura and Ben Lindquist were the editors and they did their best to see that everyone had every article and poem in on time. Jason Arnold and John Charles Harnett could still be seen sitting at the computer during any spare minute they could squeeze from classes along with staying after school on some days. One catastrophe struck when the copier in the teach- er’s lounge was out of order and pages had to be run off in time to pass out the issues. They were late but they got out. An extra long issue was released one month when the one before wasn’t passed out. Sitting on steps, benches, or the ground, in every nook and cranny, the Paw Print staff was spread all around the school campus composing their final poems. The fresh air and sun- shine provided the best creative ideas. The Paw Print gave each mem- ber a chance to write about what they believed in or felt. John Harnett wrote about war and the feelings of a sargeant towards his troops in one issue. Mary Kather- ine Gregory told teens to stay out of cars if they had been drinking because of the serious effects it had on family, friends, and your- self. Ben Lindquist’s “Been Jam- min” appealed to the skateboarders of the generation and everyone had the chance to submit poetry of their feelings. The Paw Print went through a few struggles but still managed to make the issues of 1987-88 some of the best. The stone benches by (he school are home to many Paw Print members, including Jason Arnold and Ben Lindquist.

Achieving Anchors “Set Sail 99 The Anchor Club established itself as a service club in the com- munity. With the motto “Set Sail for Service”, and the leadership of President, Katie Hook, the club earned a reputation of doing for others. Earning two hours a month was done by playing bingo at the nursing home, distributing food at the Presbyterian Church, or keeping children at the Method- ist Church. Mary Katherine Greg- ory, Molly Wilson, and Katie Hook stretched themselves and earned more than the required two hours. Selling tickets for a piece of the World’s Largest Pizza was one big project. This list also inlcuded Walk America for the March of Dimes, selling tickets for the Quincy Music Theater, and ushering at plays. Once again they participated in the Very Special Arts Fes- tival. They provided thumb- print art for the kids and helped Martha Fletcher with her class. Having fun was also at the top of the list. Salad dinners were the best, especially if Mom was there to share the moment. Anchors gave others a “helping hand” and each other support. Helping others was what being an Anchor was all about. A salad and dessert dinner winds down the first full year of Anchor activities during the Mother Daughter banquet at the Presbyterian church. Front Row: Cammie Schroeder, Katherine Hinson.

Amy Curry is among the staffers who learns about layout design and the printing of a newspaper on a visit to the Tallahassee Democrat. Being alone helps Cammie Schroeder concentrate on her assignment, The Poetry Book, which is always a major part of the six weeks grade.
