W... TQ' Fw if corn Keeps chool Informed The job of the Acorn staff is a big one, for it is through a school newspaper that the stu- dents keep up to date on what is going on in the school. The Acorn with the co-operation of the print shop is published bi- monthly, and carries an accurate account of the news of Dondero, sports events, informative fea- tures and editorials. Not only is 315W the room where all the activities of Don- dero are tied together, but also a place where students may gain experience in journalism and develop leadership. All Acorn writers agree that they need private Janet Braeunmger Oak Editor and offices, but since there are none available, they Risa Axelrod Acorn Editor admit have to make do with 3l5k, which most of the that theyd have a hard time without time is a little cramped. the advice of Mr Graham sponsor A4 FIRST ROW fL. to RJ.

Because of this, senators and officers were in office for the whole year. When Barbara Hoerauf graduated and three officers resigned, a new cabi- net was elected with the exception of Frank Joyce who remained president. The new officers are vice president Jane Friesner, secretary Anne Crotser, treasurer Becky Lunt and parlimen- tarian Joe Noble ' 19 fs S+..

Oak toll Records School Year The task of compiling all the events of the school year falls to the Oak staff. The Oak, a pic- torial essay of a year at Dondero, is a record of the social activities, sports events, classes and clubs. The yearbook is the only com- plete record a student has of his high school years, and as such it refreshes the memories of all the good times the students had. Besides doing this, it also reaches out into the community and shows others how life is lived at Dondero. Being on Oak Staff is not all taking pictures and writing copy. Sue Hammerton and Carole Keyes got one of the more unglamorous jobs of hanging publicity. FIRST ROW IL. to RJ, S. Hammerton, G. Caruso, J. Braeun- inger - Editor-in-chief, D.
