To future Prepsters interested in the field of journalism, 1950 may well seem the initial year in a period of renascence for the AHGU. llising from the ob- livion in which it had been plunged before 1948, the paper was put into shape and presented news, cartoons. articles. and other items concerning Prep during this past year in an orderly and efficient way. As faculty adviser, David NI. Heinlein had much to do with all phases of the composing and printing. His guidance was invaluable. whether as a nie- chanic, an extra typist. or merely as a cheering influence during some vital op- eration. XValter Quinn, the Editor-in-Chief, was perfectly suited for handling the many nerve-racking problems which are an inseparable part of a school news- paper. XVith his political background. XValt had no trouble dashing off fiery edi- torials accusing the school institutions of various major misdemeanors. The two assistant editors also did their jobs with skill and spent much time relieving their chief when work began accumulating. The two who filled these positions. Frank Powell and jim Lamont. were responsible for much of the work done in correcting articles and printing the paper. Art Editor Dick Connolly and his staff made many drawings. cartoons, covers, and titles which enlivened the pages. Here, such artists as joe Lebow and jim Gaspari used their talents for the pleasure of the school. Also in the pictorial department was Photography Editor Gene Ginsberg and the other members of his staff. Owing to their increased efforts to photograph, print. and publish the outstanding events of the year, the AHGO achieved the status of a true newspaper. .-X school newspaper may possess all types of novel and interesting features, but it is sure to be a failure if it lacks one thing: adequate sports coverage. This was provided by Sports Editor Neal Nlacfarlan and such able writers as Don Nlcfiardle and Joe Scuderi. In addition to these special workers, the AHGO also had an excellent body of feature writers and other agents who were responsible for most of the stories and news items printed. This group contained many careful and original authors. George Allgair, Jerry Heldrich. and Dick XVilliams were among this competent party. Charles Tucker was responsible for distributing copies of each issue to various other prep and high schools. XVith a few exceptions. this same group of boys headed by YValt Quinn pro- duced the Christmas. Spring. and Graduation issues of the newly introduced literary magazine, the .-XHGOKI.-XG. The first. or Christmas. printing proved the magazines worth. It then presented twenty-six pages of good material. includ- ing interviews. stories. descriptions. and puzzles. The two succeeding ARGU- NIJXGS showed improvements and refinements in many places. and with the last publication the school could guarantee that the magazine was here to stay. IQ 4-- l'

XVith the final printing of this, the 1950 YE DIAL. a burden was lifted from the shoulders of the yearbook staff and faculty advisers. A sigh soon followed which was one not of relief, although relief was there, but one of joy. satisfac- tion, and pride. lt was a sigh that came from having done a job to the utmost of one's ability. and from having expended time and energy in an effort to exceed all past publications. For the difference in style and arrangement present in this book the praise and credit must go to Gene Ginsberg, Chuck jackson, and joe Lebow. Nlany long hours were spent in developing a suitable plan for adoption. Something new and different was needed, something new and different has been achieved. Working under the special direction of Nlr. Shepard and Nlr. Quin, the staff suc- ceeded in drawing up a well-knit layout whereby each word and picture had a definite place to be filled later by the writers and photographers. The business board headed by Dick Servis succeeded in supplying the num- ber of ads necessary in order to make the very existence of the yearbook possible. The last few commercial pages posed a serious problem for a short time, until an intensive campaign spearheaded by Nlr. Shepard and Dick Servis impressed the students with the urgent need for obtaining the remaining ads. As the Editor-in-Ghief. Chuck jackson maintained coordination between the various departments so that the obligations to the printer could be fulfilled. Aside from spending much time in editing, compiling data, and planning, Chuck could be seen going about reminding fellows of the deadlines or carrying copy between the Traps',, the engraver, and the printer. jim Lamont, as the Associate Editor, proved himself to be an invaluable member of the editorial staff. jimis accuracy in spelling and punctuation. not to mention his ability as a writer. were indispcnsible assets. Sports Editor Georgie Pauk was responsible for such fine work as the interesting and detailed accounts of the football and basketball seasons. Dick Butler also contributed much to the sports section of the book. The newly introduced football. basketball. and spring sports montages rc- flect the skill behind all of Gene Ginsberg's work. As the Photography Editor. he with his staff was responsible for the majority of the pictures which accom- pany each article. Half of every yearbook is said to be composed of the photo- graphyg Gene certainly carried out his share of the work to perfection. Joe Lebow's light touch and artistic ability provided the cartoons and sketches which brighten many pages this year. His original ideas and clevei' technique added a touch of humor throughout this book. Much cl'edit and thanks go to those standbys and workhorses who cheer- fully came through with articles at a moment's notice. XValt Quinn contributed to many phases of work. not only by typing copy but also in writing numerous short articles. jerry Heldrich was responsible for the formulation and pl'oduc- tion of several important articles. Tom Nlurrav adequately covered the social events of the year. Bill Fairhurst. Kearney Kuhlthau. lay Levinston. and Neal Niacfarlan were numbered among that group of loyal writers who were always prepared to meet a crucial deadline. In summing up, thanks also go to the entire student body, without whose support this publication would not have been possible. 3.- ,-
