The Vandalite, the school paper, is the voice of the student body and has a major role in forming the policy of the students, The paper is also another of the extra curricular activities in which the students take part. lf a student is interested in Iournalism, the Vandalite offers an excellent opportunity for training in this field. lt also performs the necessary item of reviewing student activities, and giving all the other activities of the school a big boost in spirit, Due to the handwork of the editorial staff, headed by Betty Brooks, and the advisor, Mr. Hooper, the Vandalite is becoming one of the better school papers of the state. With many of the staff members underclass- men, we predict an even better paper next year. 44 39 Pb
