Write-ups on teenage marriages and pregnancies, legalization of marijuana, vandalism of school property, and stu- dent rights sparked vigorous student reactions expressed in letters to the editor. The sports page, with its accu- rate coverage, descriptive copy, and action-packed pictures, was the page most Cock's Quill readers turned to first. Striving to meet deadlines, editors were confronted with a lack of interest among staff members which resulted in fewer published papers. Organizations T03
