TXTXQMI nxi g f s Headlines, cutlines, by-lines and deadlines challenged the statt members who produced the weekly paper, the Bag- pipe. Under the guidance ot Monica McAdams, editor, and Kris Zmuda, assistant editor, the statt was able to continue the tradition ot producing a weekly paper. Monica thought this would be a problem. Many ot the statt members were inexperienced but ev- eryone caught on very quick- ly, and so publishing a weekly paper wasn't nearly as ditticult as l thought it would be, she said. Something new was the meetings after school on Mon- day. They were used to plan tor the tollowing week's paper. Lori Wroblewski, teature edi- tor, explained, Staying atter school helped to put our ideas together and to become orga- nized.

The staff managed to put out tour eight-page issues, two ot which featured color. One ot these was the special anniver- sary edition celebrating Thorn- ridge's 25th birthday. We really pulled through to pro- duce some great issues. We were proud ot the 25th anni- versary issue with all ot its ex- citing teatures about Thorn- ridge, commented Kris. All together there was a total ot 25 issues. The statt learned much more than writing well under pres- sureg they learned the mean- ing ot working together as a statt in creating a guality publi- cation. Bagpipe lOl
