YEARBOOK STAFF What's most important in putting out an annual? Money! Lorraine Lamm, David Knoll, subscription manager, Sheron Melton, advertising manager, Sandy Wysong, Dick Hensley, and Diane Woodward found the job of soliciting advertising and subscriptions a time consuming job but kept at it. These staff mem- bers obtained the most of the advertising and sold the most subscriptions, Two heads are better than one is a wise saying. Co-editors Donna Wright and Dolores Blankinship found out the position of editor is a responsible job with much reward. The members of the annual staff found that it's easier to buy an an- nual and read it than to put it together, but the satisfaction of the finish- ed product on distribution day is a rewarding experience. Part of the staff here work with Miss Spencer, sponsor, preparing copy and reports: ibackl Sue Thompson, faculty, Sandy Wysong, typist, Sharon Tarplee, features, Jim McMahon, sports, fcenterl Sheron Melt- on, ads, Linda Swails, seniors, Judy Standiford, underclassmen, ffrontl Dave Knoll, subscriptions, Dick Hensley, business assistant, Knot in pic- ture?
