The first important meeting of the yearbook staff took place in the beginning of this 59-60 school year. There had been a few preliminary meetings in June, the previous year, when it was announced that Jim Dumont was to be the editor-in-chief, but it was not until September that the staff was settled upon. These meetings were followed by the ad campaign. Little could be done in the way of layout before a budget was worked out; it was late November before all the returns from the ad campaign were in. After a satisfactory campaign, the editorial staff met with the moderator. Brother Bassett and advisor. Brother Lyons, and editors were assigned to the dif- ferent sections. The moderator, Br. Bassett, the advisor, Br. Lyons, and the editor, Jim Dumont, critizing a division page designed by Michael Grant. The yearbook staff hard at work during their 2:30 p.m. period. 29

YEARBOOK (cont.) It was after Christmas before any formal layouts were made. This part of the work was more difficult than in former years due to a style which called for a chronological order. Mixing football with volleyball and the other intramural sports proved more of a task than first imagined. The next sections which went to the printer were the classes and activities. Before the deadlines for these came up, the familiar phrase, “Al, will you take a picture for me?” was heard nearly every day. Next, the ad section was assembled. Mats, cuts and pictures had to be obtained from various advertising agencies. Interspersed with the copy in this part are several sponsored pages, generously donated. The advertising staff spent many hours working on these pages. The Graduates section has a somewhat different arrangement. To show more of the seniors in action, their portraits were lined up giving more room to picture them in an informal manner. Well, somehow all the work was finished. Just what The entire business section in conference, has been done since that first meeting last June can be seen on the pages of this book. Boxing and basektball shots hold the attention of Bruce Richardson, Bernard McCabe, and Michael Melanson.
