' E l 1 V f l Bruce Majors This year, for the first time, Webb School students were allowed to Write brief weekly articles of a journalistic nature on things that happened at Webb, which ap- peared in the Sl-IELBYVILLE TIMES GAZETTE fsomething that other Bedford County Schools had been doing for quite sometime. J j The three students who participated were: jon Cook, Michael F. Giddings, and Bruce Majors. Obviously, a journalism club had some benefits for students in the way of ex- perience. And for others by keeping them informed of what happened or when some- thing would happen at Webb School. But aside from this, hopefully it will serve as an advertisement for private, independent schools. A return to an educational market place of competing schools would be a significant step for intellectual and economic liberty very much in tune with the Bicentennial. Bruce Majors 97

This year THE ORACLE continued to use the same format that had been Set up the previous school year of a more literary than journalistic magazine. The reason for this applies to almost every school publication at any institution un- less the school paper or magazine has an exceptionally large and dedicated staff and has access to a quick printer, any news that is written for THE ORACLE becomes ancient history by the time it reaches the hands of the reader, and this is useless. The Oracle Staff was disappointingly small in the school year of '75-'76, with most of the material solicited rather than being written by a permanent staff, due to a general attitude of apathy present in the student body. Despite the setbaks and the disappointments of the year, we feel that this year's ORACLE was the best possible, considering our limited resources. We hope that in the future years more attention will be paid to THE ORACLE'S progress. Allen Steele , Editor 96

To do this we had to quit using a standard theater film of 35 mm. and switch to a nominal 16 mm. It affected the shows, but never- theless they were movies. The crew was open to many people so that they could have the opportunity to learn the techniques of cinema. The projection.crew is not limited to run- nin a projector Some of the 'obs con 8 - J ' nected with it are sound and lighting for plays and special events, videotaping during basketball games, and various other events during the year.
