fllllllflfilf, 1930 THE criticisms, and reviews were written by the journalism class for the Post-llulletin. Saturday mornings and vacation seldom mean sleepl' for the journalists, for at least two of the school reporters have to collect locals from S200 till 9:30 and then have them typed by 10:15. How many of you really understand the arrangement between the Post-Bulletin and the high school? At the Minnesota High School Press As- sociation convention in St. Cloud this fall, the delegates learned that R. H. S. is the only school in Minnesota and one of the few in the United States that is actually paid by a newspaper for the services of its re- porters. For all of the local news items and school notes sent to the Post-Bulletin from the school, S20 a week or a total of S780 for a school year, is received by the high school treasury for Hnancing the Rochet. Last year, the Rochet was graded in class A, at the National Publication Con- test. George Gallup, secretary-treasurer of Quill and Scroll, national high school jour- nalistic society, said that the appearance of the Rochet is professional rather than high schoolish . Most of you know of the complete change the Rochet underwent, beginning last year. The new system was introduced by the journalism teacher of last year, Miss Doris Trott. The new type of magazine was the first of its kind in high schools in the country, but the system is being taken up by many schools. By combining the features of the 'fCrucible , the former monthly literary magazine, and those of the 'tRochet , the annual, the new baby Rochetu was introduced. Besides their writing for the Post-Bulle- tin, spending evenings making up the dum- my , and organizing material and cuts, the journalism students must be ready to go to the most convenient place, usually the high school, for reading proof before saying a final O, K. to the printer, to be sure things are as nearly correct as pos-sible. In addition to their activity in news, all the students of journalism are members of the national honorary journalism society, Quill and Scroll. Like other clubs, meet- ings are held once each six weeks. Spon- sors of the club are Miss Ethel King, Oliver Nordly, and the journalism teacher, Miss Margaret Owen.
