ADVERTISING IS an important part of any newspaper. Here Veralyn Cox of the Thunderbolt staff gives Sally Simonson of Sally's Shoes a sales pitch on the advantages of Thunderbolt advertising. BUCK RAMSEY and Nancy Wallick exchange activity tickets for current events. The T-Bolt is being distributed by Pat Cowan, editorial co-editor, and Karen Cooper. Thunderbolt Greets Students Under the leadership and guidance of a new sponsor, Mr. Robert Simons, the 1963-64 Thunderbolt staff turned out sixteen editions of one of the state's top-rated high school newspapers. Issues were distributed to 2,100 activity ticket holders and to cash customers during the three lunch hours. New ideas for the newspaper were gleaned from the study of exchange papers from all parts of the nation. To help finance the publication, student journalists solic- ited advertisements from local businessmen, thereby gain- ing experience in salesmanship and management. Staff members received a first-hand look at the over- all operation and circulation of a big newspaper when they toured the complete plant of the Denver Post. They also traveled to Denver for an afternoon's entertainment at Cinerama. Thunderbolt editor-in-chief was Lynn Rainier. Other editors were Sherry Irving, news editor, Madalyne Gunn, feature editor, Veralyn Cox, business manager, Ray Baslee, art editor, Sue Alm, editorial editor, Steve Wilman, spotrs editor, Carol Jensen, copy editor, and Karen Cooper, exchange editor.
