With several innovations of policy, make-up, and organization, the Gater finally reached the top of a two- year upswing in the spring of this year, to be acclaimed by faculty and students alike as an outstanding piece of colle- giate journalism. Started by Editor Ed Pierce in the fall, the innovations included freer make-up, better display of featured stories, and guest columns by faculty members on current affairs. Under the leadership of Editor Ed Smith in the spring, the Gater instituted a revamped feature page, a new system of distri- bution. Minor E!fff01',l', colnmnirit.

HILL ED PIERCE MARGARET SULLIVAN Q ILLUSTRATOR STEVE MILLS Working on a limited budget, the staff of this Franciscan pulled out of a long struggle to produce a book with new departments, new methods of pres- entation. The color illustrations serving as divi- sion pages are new to the Franciscan, as are the honorary fraternity portrait division and the sections devoted to honoring several graduates with special commendation for services rendered the college in their undergraduate years. A special method of lamination over the cover illustration is another new feature adopted by the staif for the year. Q BUS. MANAGER IAMES F. MARTIN Q ASST.
