Q-- Capturing a year's worth of memories in one book was no easy task for the yearbook staff. lt meant putting in extra time before and after school to com- plete six deadlines and make everything perfect. One change which made things easier for the staff was the use of the comput- er. All copy, headlines, cut- lines, and folio lines were typed into the computer by section editors and could easily be fitted and correct- ed without the hassle of re- writes and retyping. lt took some time to leam how to use the com- puter, but when you get the hang of it things are a lot easier and it makes the work a little more fun, stat- ed Maria Mokry, sports edi- tor. Another change was the use of larger pictures. After deciding on the theme A Closer Look, editors Shei- la Quirke and Laura Magna- vite increased the impor- tance of pictures to empha- size that theme. Over the summer Laura and l decided that we want- ed to make the book one to remember. Stronger pic- tures were a step in that di- rection, said Sheila. With the distribution of the final product in May, the thoughts of hard work and pressure were replaced by feelings of satisfaction and pride. Piper 111

Staff overcomes inexperience Who knows what to do? No one? For the first time not one student had been involved in the production of the Bagpipe during the prior year. l was worried about hav- ing such a high position, but it made me feel better that l wasn't the only per- son without any exper- ience, said Kathy Stout, co-editor-in-chief. lnexperience took its toll particularly during the first few issues of the weekly newspaper. Common phrases heard in the office of B221 were You mean we have to paste up already? We just did layout yester- day. Don't we get any free time in here? I have to write another story? This week's issue hasn't even been printed yet. What am I going to do with this ten-inch air space? Dave! Dave Mosele was called upon often not only be- cause of his art ability, but also because whenever an empty space appeared, he could always come up with a cartoon or drawing rel- evant to almost any story. lt never bothered me be- ing called on so often be- cause it was fun drawing the cartoons. l never knew that the cartoonist position was so important, said Dave. While a lot of work was done during class time, planning was done every Monday morning before school. We all agreed to come in the moming be- cause it was the only time that we could get everyone together: most people had to work after school, said Lisa Shipe, news editor. However, the inexperi- ence was overcome and the staff became a well-orga- nized working unit that pro- duced 25 issues, including three that were eight pages. Bagpipe 115
