VERS TENTI-l YEAR After the writers have returned with their stories, the copy is copyread, names checked, okayed by the editors, and sent to the printer. The copy returns in the form of galley proofs. These are proofread, cut up, and pasted onto the dummy layout forms as they will appear when printed. TOWER members are not so hard at Work that they cannot find time for a little recreation now and then. Together with the HILLTOPPER staff, they plan and give the annual Christmas and Spring Birthday parties for the staffs and Iournalism classes. Also, many TOWER and HILLTOPPER staff members attend the Indiana High School Press Association at Franklin, and the But- ler Iournalism Field Day at Butler Univer- sity. s TOP PICTURE STANDING-William Welch, Rita Miller, Carolyn Schuster, Mary Iune Stultz, Ann Fennell, Mary Tor- rence, Charlotte Walton, Charlot Thorne, Ianice Samp- son, Barbara Larnb, Dean Morrow.
