A school’s newspaper plays an important role in student life. Through the paper, the student body receives an organized account of current happenings as well as subjective articles which provoke laughter or thought. The Campus Breeze staff tried this year to exploit these two areas in an interesting and interest-catching manner. They began the school year by overhauling the paper's typography, thus revising a ten-year tradition which they felt had begun to stagnate. With the help of their new adviser, Miss Nancy Watrud. the Breeze staff won the twenty-third All-American rating, the highest honor offered to the scholastic press. Journalism II assumed the job of preparing the paper, and Journalism I acted as apprentices. J-I students who had demonstrated consistently high levels of responsibility and writing skill were elected to the 1960-61 staff in April. These future staffers published a Cub Issue which fully justfiied their positions. Journalism I: Row on«, loft to right; Margie Mayeda. Tom Bator, Davo Collins.

Somehow, Sometime, The deceptively simple • sounding task of planning an attractive “happy memories” yearbook took a fantastic amount of organization and work in 1960. “Hectic” would he too weak an adjective for the state of the editor throughout the school year and far into the summer. Her duties included layouts, reading galleys, corresponding with the printer in Virginia. Minnesota, and. finally, nlanning her introductory section of the yearbook. The other editors were responsible only for their respective sections; this, of course, meant that they had to schedule and select pictures and then have them finaled by the photo editor. The copy editor took care of all the writing in the hook. Although co-ordination between editors on the 1960 Bishila left something to he desired, the staff hoped that the late publishing date would allow them to schedule some of the end-of-the-year activities that would not ordinarily go in.

Eleanor Arna-son, Ruth Koehler, Janie O'Leary, Blair Charnely. U High's literary magazine, the Bard, is the only school publication which is strictly an extra-curricular project. It is also the only one to which all grades can contribute. This year's Bard editors were Debby Chamley and Pete Lorber. As before, Mr. John Simmons was adviser. Christopher Simonds presided over Thespians, T High’s honorary dramatic club, in 1960. Students qualified for Thespians on the basis of a point system. Because of the rather large casts of the three major plays performed this year, Thespians had an unusually high membership. Thespians: Sitting, left to right: Merry Moon, Tom Jones.
