Hot P1-Q55 the We had our work cut out for us with only two returning staff members, but I think most of the new ones pitched in and learned fast and worked hard, stated Mr. Don Harris, newspaper ad- viser. After learning the basics and getting one edition out, nine staff members participated in the state journalism com- petition in Sun Valley. They took three awards and helped the school place sixth in the sweep- stakes competition. The fourteen staff members put in many long hours after school, at noon and on Satur- days to get the ten editions of the tabloid paper out. Many of the editors had to put in up to 20 hours or more in extra time to get a single edition of The West Side Story published. Finishing up the paste-ups af- ter school, two-to-four staff members would drive train, shine, or snowj the six miles to Shelley, get the paper ready for camera work, wait a couple of hours for the camera and press work, then return the paper to Idaho Falls. They usually arrived back in town between 10:30 p.m. and midnight, although one group didn 't make it until around 2a.m. Contrary to what many students might believe, there's more to getting a paper out than distributing it every six weeks, commented Mr. Harris. After a newspaper deadline, staff members brainstorm ideas for the next issue. Adviser Don Harris oversees the production of the paper from behind his desk. Covering the sports scene was Garth Bradley. Associate Editor Dave Hansel and Editor Jill Beck. 120 Newspaper A 4' if - X- 'g,L ,Ae , ff if' f t iff .: f 'ef S. Si A JEMIC YEA? tv PLANNER 12 ,H

QW . s th Quill and Scroll is an inter- national honor society with the primary purpose of recognizing outstanding achievement by high school journalists. lt is also used to keep the funds for our conventions, ban- quets and workshops separated from the newspaper and yearbook subscriptions, so we don't use money from the publications for other types of activties, stated Mr. Don Harris, adviser. Quill and Scroll sold con- cessions at ball games, spon- sored two dances and sold family portraits to earn money for the state convention held in Oc- tober and the journalism awards and recognition banquet held in April. Being awarded his position as Advertising Manager for the newspaper for next year is Ricky Evans.
