Shortages take toll Lacking advertising sales- men and enough trained, ex- perienced editors and repor- ters, the only area where the PRESS staff didn't seem to lack staff was columnists. From the first of December on, the PRESS had no ad sales staff. No one who could be spared to sell ads on a regular basis had a car. Becoming even more pronounced after the mid- term graduation of three out of four regular page editors, a lack of trained writers plagued the staff all year. Under Editor-in-Chief Gavin McCormick, staff members rotated assignments frequen- tly for several months in or- der to develop experience rapidly after the first of the year. This rotation was also in anticipation of the fact that Adviser Wayne L. Field plan- ned to retire from teaching at the end of the year. Since the experience and ability of the new adviser was an unknown factor, staff members had to prepare to produce the paper by them- selves until they could train a new adviser to direct the many-faceted program. 32 A S f r
