Tripodium initiates 'Spirit issue' A streamlined TRIPODIUM staff of 15 writers and a new advi- sor, Mrs. Jean Hudder, experienced a year of re-organization that pro- duced successful results. Editor Gaye Seed, newsffeature editor Sandy Clark, sports co-edi- tors Lynn Kohr and Frank Riley and business manager Brenda She- pek, assumed responsibility for planning and producing the bi- weekly. Students at the Vocational Technical School printed the news- paper. The editorial staff encouraged re- sponse from both the students and faculty. News and features devel- oped a widened scope of appeal and sports editorials added interest to accounts of Cougar victories. The advertising staff maintained a firm financial base by inviting the pa- tronage of Salina and area business firms. A special edition popularly known as the spirit edition, a first for South, generated enthusiasm the day of the second basketball match- up between the Cougars and the Sa- lina Central Mustangs. Several staff members submitted entries to national, state and region- al writing contests. Winners who advanced to State were Gaye Seed, Lynn Kohr, John Keeling, Brenda Shepek, Pam VanMeter, Janice Short, and Kathy Duggan.
