'Pauhte Cham gangers eke out 'soul' of '69 TIME: Any unreasonable hour. PLACE: Yearbook room housing mascot oddities, an inspirational poster of Sammy Davis, Jr., and a chain gang of frazzled staffers. LAYOUT FANATIC: I quit! These pictures don't fit . . . and I don't know Where to put this cutline and . . . COPY NUT: You can't quit - slaves can only be sold! Will you please make the copy blocks smaller? My mind is completely blown. I can't think of any more ideas! HARASSED EDITOR: I imagine that when all the past editors of the Paulite discover our new, improved cover design and headline type, they'll hang us in effigy for our unconventional efforts. AD MANAGER: Cheer up, edit! I casually J Our budget is beautiful. All those five dollar patrons and our 360-1- Send 'em to New York ads campaign did the trick. LAYOUT FANATIC: We're all headed for total nerv- ous breakdowns! Do you realize that twelve layouts have to be completely finished by tomorrow?! Pass the aspirin. HARASSED EDITOR: I know that this may sound ironic, but somehow, I believe that the '69 Paulite promises to be fabulous. In any case, chain gangers, the end of all this is only 800 work hours away.

Chaotic 'paulights' staff produces 'masterpiece' Controlled mass confusion! A basketball game? Would you believe the news- paper staff at work on the next issue of the Paul-ights? St. Paul's Hmimeographed masterpiece , a news media, complaint collector, and social register, stam- pedes journalists and typists into bi-weekly hysteria. Typewriters form the battle front of staffer vs. stencil. Prodded by editor Jim Webb's quiet despair, reporters hit the news beat to uncover the little known mys- teries of student activity. When the news to know is finally merged on finished stencils, and the mimeo- graph machine churns out the last copies, staifers re- habilitate - experiencing one rewarding aspect of the newspaper syndrome - student reaction. The Paulights exerts an uncanny effect on the stu- dent body. Interest activates, grins creep over faces as private jokes come to light, and kids enthusiastically discover: Hey, I got my name in the paper! Through all the difficulties and mishaps that per- meate newspaper production, Paulites still point with pride to the fact that the Paulights is their own student produced, student directed effort , 50
