Annual Staff The annual staff of 1951-1952 consisted of ten members. Our adviser was Mrs. Stevens The Staff members worked diligently to sell advertisements to the business- men of Shannon and the surrounding communities in order to meet the expenses involved in putting out the yearbook. Each member was also responsible for several articles in the annual. These were written up as the events took place, copy and layout sheets were prepared and proofread and, finally the printed pages were assembled and bound. A great deal of time and effort is always expended in the publication of an annual and we all hope that you, our readers, enjoy reading the book as much as we enjoyed composing it.
