Despite the graduation of most newspaper officers, the new staff members more than adequately filled their shoes. Following in the footsteps of previous Falconer staffs is something they didn't do. The September Falconer issue featured a new banner and lypeset copy, to make the traditionally excellent writing easier to read. ln October, the entire Falconer staff made the trek to the state Joumalism Convention at San Jose. ln addition to attending numerous workshops, in an effort to leam the the techniques used on other school papers and apply them to the Falconer, selected ,Tai staff standouts in writing, layout, and photography competed. Despite competing against some of the best high school joumalists in the state, staffers Kathy Dreifuss won a second place award in the layout competition and Kristin Kammerer won a third place award in news writing. The first semester staff began a tradition of ex- cellence to guide those of second semester. ln an effort to alter and upgrade the quality of the paper, numerous changes were made second semester. Jeff Berend took over the helm as Editor-in- Chief, while first semester editor Chris Hamson be- came Assistant Editor. Other changes were made as capable cubbies from the beginning journalism ciass were integrated into the staff. The new staff decided upon the new banner and the horizontal layout that marked the second se- mester Falconer issues. After their successes in San Jose, the staff headed forthe National Journalism Convention in Tucson, Ar- izona. Between tough oom- petitions and informative workshops, the staff found time to fratemize with their journalistic peers from across the nation, ill. , -x , ,ll SECOND SEMESTER rookies Craig Matter, Kim Rible, Meredith Casai, Greta Pad, Susan Thomas, Jaime G-lasson, Mark Thomas, Chris Reavis, and Travis Scott joined the staff. .J .Q- i 'Ja 1.
