The long hours they spend planning, organizing and editing are finally rewarded as they see the fruits of their efforts in actual print. Many long hours are spent by the art editors as they work on lay-outs. Every page is set up differently and the girls must be sure that each arrangement is balanced and pleasing to the eye. Members of the Tower's typing staff make use of their talent and training by helping the rest of the staff meet hectic deadlines. The pro- duction members keep things running with their smooth organization while the sales editor and his helpers work unceasingly to sell' their quota of ads.

ALAN F. LYSTER English B.A., Princeton University Well-known as the school's fine lit- erary and art magazine, the Quarterly is more than a mere publication. This periodical, under the direction of Mr. Lyster, is published four times a year as a creative outlet for young writers and artists and as a means of recog- nizing the efforts of talented students. Staffs Combine Fffforts for NAOMI MANNI NG English B A B J University of Texas Yearbook sports editors and assistants learn the qualifications of a good sports picture. They select only those shots which are clear and sharp and show plenty of interesting action. The pictures are chosen from those taken by the Tower's photography editor as well as by the professional photog- rapher. Production of the Tower is a class effort which requires the participation of every interested senior. Each stu- dent may help in the area in which he is qualified, under a staff of editors which is selected on the basis of teacher recommendations. Mrs. Man- ning gives helpful suggestions to the yearbook editor and the literary staff and is always ready to help with any problems which arise.

Student Council Strives This year the American Field Service Club, formerly a branch of the Student Council, became a separate organization. The club is dedicated to the raising of funds for the community's student exchange program, and it gives each student the opportunity to take an active part in the A.F.S. plan. The S.G.A. school store has become an invaluable asset to Regional. Readily available to students are various school sup- plies, a wide selection of paper- back books, study guides and even sweatshirts. Due to the success of this enterprise, an ad- ditional branch has been opened in the cafeteria. Fostering a feeling of harmony and cooperation throughout Regional, the Student Council gives each individual a voice in the schooI's government. Maintaining the spirit of democracy, it bridges the gap between student and teacher as it performs its essential duties through energetic homeroom rep- resentatives.
