The Phoenix Triton Staff Story The new year brought to San Clemente a new Triton ad- visor, Mrs. Mary Lynn Hartman, At the beginning of the new semester, there were no signups for news aper pro- duction. Mrs. Hartman visited advanced Engish Classes to recruit staff members. Twenty-six students gave their names as being interested in staff assignments. Of that number only eight showed up for a meetin to actually go to work. Ultimately, only four were a le to make the schedule adjustments which allowed them to be- come regular staff members. At the beginning of the semester no money was budget- ed for publication of a school newspaper. ASB Officers conducted a straw poll and determined students need and want for a newspaper. Finally, $1,000 of student body funds was pled ed to keep the aper alive. Mrs. Hart- man committe the staff tthougE non-existenti for an- other $700 in funds to be raised from advertising. The Triton staff of four re ular members and two or three volunteer, no-credit stu ents met every deadline of the fall production schedule, writing, editing, pasting-up, and distributing 2200 copies of the Triton every other Fri- ORCANIZA TIONS 32 day. In addition, in their spare timei' they sold enough advertising land created the ads themselvesi to produce nearly $500 of income for the Triton account. Semester schedule changes brought the staff to another crisis. Although they had doubled their enrollment the first day of the semester lnow having twoi, there was a critical need for regular staff members if the Triton was to survive. Issue number eight was published and distri- buted on Friday, Feb. 18. Unless more staff members were to be found this may have been the last Triton for 1971-72. Classes were polled and questionaires were issued in all English classes on the pli ht of the paper. An estimated 1900 students returned the questionaires. On the basis of tabulated responses the paper appeared to be safe. The class enrollment is now approximately 20 and are ready to maintain thejournalistic quality of the Triton. The new Triton staff is ictured at right. Missing from pic- tures are: Patrice Keley, Mike Anderson, Karen Elliot, Lyn Ellen Hicks, Kori Miller, Kelly Smith, john Driscoll, Barney Slenning, Sandi Estep, Holly Fort and janet lensen.
