Quest Encourages Literary, Artistic Creativity at RHS The 1967 Quest, Roosevelt’s literary magazine, attracted entries from a large segment of the school population, Poems, essays, short stories and plays passed before the discerning eyes of co-edito rs Barb Campbell and Sue LaRue and their vigilant staff. Then there were hours spent with the contributions of the artists and photographers of the school so that the book could be representative of the total creative effort of the year, andful- fill its purpose of nurturing creativity at Roosevelt. Co-editors Sue LaRue and Barb Campbell look over a short story, one of the many contributions to Quest. 24
