A letter from the Editor It has been said that the person who finishes something gets more credit than the person who starts it. | guess that’s what happened with the Millers LOG this year. For the first semester there was a staff of five people, none of whom were seniors. There was one senior who was originally going to be on yearbook staff, but because of schedule conflicts, had to work during newspaper class. She ended up working on the Sentinel more than anything else. To make a long story short, a new staff was needed. A plea went out to some concerned people and a new staff was put together at the semester break in January. The question was raised, why would anyone in his right mind go to the trouble of putting together a yearbook? To me the answer is clear. A yearbook is a pictorial condensement of the events and activities that made the year what it was. Later you can look at it and remember what you did and the fun you had in high school. We did it to give you, and ourselves, something to remember our year here. It was rather scary to undertake the responsibility of putting a whole book together in half a year, but as you can see, we succeeded. There were, the usual problems of figuring out how to put a page together and making deadlines, but problems are made to be solved and we did. Every member of the staff worked really hard and | want to thank them all. Its been a lot of fun to work with them. A Special Thanks The staff of the Millers LOG would like to thank the following whose assistance made this years edition possible.

NOW that you have last year well in hand don't miss out on this year at SHS. Get this year’s Miller Log NOW A note from the publisher MC patriarchs launch SHS annual Herbert Hansen and Walter Bailey may not be household names like Presi- dent George Washington or Springfield founder Elias Briggs. Still to Springfield High School publications, now operat- ing under the corporate name Miller communications, Hansen and Bailey will stand for all time as the patriarchs of the school yearbook and newspaper. According to best accounts available to the SHS archivist Hansen became editor of the first school yearbook when he was a sophomore in the 1912-13 school year. Unfortunately no copy of that introductory volume has yet been found. Hansen continued in his position for the next year to lead the publication of the 1914 yearbook simply titled “High School Annual.’’ The 64-page soft-cover edition was dedicated to Dis- trict School Superintendent Robert L. Kirk. A fellow classmate, junior Walter Bailey, was serving as student body president and as athletics editor for the annual. The next school year Hansen was elected student body president. Bailey was apparently looking for new horizons to conquer. The result of his leaderabi- lity and literary skill was a small 24-page magazine-like publication called ‘‘The Headlight’’ that was the first venture at Springfield High School to report the on- going news at the school. No other re- cord of ‘‘The Headlight’’ has yet been found. Bailey went on that year to edit the 1915 edition of the ‘Hight School Annual.’’ Orson Vaughn was selected to edit the 1916 edition. The name of the 1921 annual was changed to the ‘‘Maple Leaf’’ in recog- nition of the large maple trees on the grounds of the high school located be- tween “‘E”’ and ‘‘D”’ streets on Mill, pre- sent location of the district administra- tion building. The ‘“‘Maple Leaf’? grew to a hard- cover edition through the prosperity of the 1920s and apparently nearly died during the early days of the great de- pression. In 1942, when Springfield High School, moved to a new building on 10th and ‘‘H”’ streets, and away from the maple trees, the name was changed to its current title ‘‘Millers LOG’’. Editor of the first “‘LOG’’ was Jack Vaughn, son of 1916 editor Orson Vaughn. The school newspaper has gone through similar transformations. Apparently the ‘‘Headlight’’ did not survive. Reports indicate that in 1918 the journalistic efforts of SHS students Herbert Hansen Walter Bailey were directed towards writing a regular column that appeared in the then ‘‘Lane County Star’ in 1914. That column, ti- tled the ‘‘SHS Tattler’ apparently lasted until 1923 when in the fall the students took a shot at publishing their own newspaper again. Perhaps reflective of their zeal towards this task, the new pa- per was called the ‘‘Go-Getter.’’ The SHS archives have no copies of this publication, just references to it in the school yearbook. The same is true for the early editions of the “SENTINEL” current name of the SHS newspaper. The best information to date is from a reference in a 1938 ‘Maple Leaf’ that suggests the first vol- ume of the SENTINEL was published in the 1935-36 school year. It has re- mained ‘‘The student voice of Spring- field High School’? now for nearly 45 years. y i a Pat Albright, above, stepped down as advi- sor of the year book with the conclusion of this Millers LOG. Jean White will advise the 1982 edition.
