Books were not the only items for sale in the Wasson bookstore. An assort- ment of items necessary for school work was availa- ble at the bookstore run by the Literary Guild. For the students' convenience, the bookstore was open dur- ing first, fourth, and seventh periods this year. Members of the club ordered books, made sales, and kept all the records for the bookstore treasury. Their profits went toward buying more books. A C+ average and an interest in working inthe bookstore were the requirements set by lVlr. Brinton, sponsor, for joining Literary Guild. l l i l Biography? Historical fiction? Poetry?

The Penman included more artwork and photography this year, which provided for a visual as well as a literary experience. Wasson students submitted prose, poetry, and art work to the green mailbox in the library. The contri- butions were then read and rated by each member of the staff, headed by Glynda Ratliffe, editor. The best material was published in the Penman, which was dis- tributed in lVlay. in-35354-X Staff members Debbie Helbig, Lola Jackson, and Chris Johnson read and write their comments on prospective prose selections for the Penman.

60 T UNDERBOL nder the editorship of Lola Jackson and the spon- sorship of Mr. Simons, the Thunderbolt staff pub- lished eighteen issues this year, the largest number in Wasson's history. In an effort to expand into a more worldly newspaper, the editorial staff published argu- ments on such controversial topics as drugs and the draft. An opinion poll on music was circulated by the staff to the entire student body. All well-written letters to the editor airing students' suggestions and com- plaints were printed. For the first time, the T-Boll staff decided to have a booth at the Homecoming Carnival. They raised money by selling balloons and posters. Last year's T-Bolt received an All-American rating and an honorable mention from the Colorado Press Association. Completion of Journalism 1 and 2 and selection by Mr. Simons were prerequisites for a position on the T-Boll staff.
