W? Trai I Staff strives for relevant yearbook Arranging page layouts, writing copy, choosing a theme, and photographing school events - all are essential in the production ofa yearbook. Many new ideas were introduced in the '7l TRAIL. The staff decided on an unu- sual cover, a larger book, a new section, and a change in organization in an attempt to produce the best yearbook ever. Frenzied activity could be seen in Room F-2 with each person striving to finish his pages before the deadline. Work was done before and after school, as well as during Judy Affholder and Jan Eskew revise copy while Ter- ri Garoutte and Jeanne Foster compile the index of the TRAIL. first hour, under the supervision of Mrs. Shirley Gabrielson, staff adviser. Staff positions were filled in the early spring. There were no members who had had previous experience so several mem- bers attended summer workshops. There they were taught up-to-date techniques in layout design, picture content, and copy writing. Another aid to the staff was the experi- ence offered by Jan Eskew, who trans- ferred from out of state and joined the staff at the beginning ofthe year. Senior editors Karen Bitler and Debbie Jacobs sort st udent picture packets.

After stories were assigned, they had to be copyread by page editors, Editor-in- Chief John Wine, and Assistant Editor Bill Hanshaw. Then the copy was sent to the printer to come back on galley proofs. Before the newspaper finally came out, it 'had been read at least three times by the staff. Writing headlines, cutlines, and selling West Word photographers, Jeff Garlach, Jeff Martin, and Keith Perry find them- selves always busy. Angie Martin, with the help of Carol Cutright and Donna Armstrong, indexes recent issues of the West Word. advertising, and writing assigned stories were some of the many tasks performed. Under the direction of Mrs. Shirley Ga- brielson, the West Word was published bi- weekly by the staff first semester and weekly second semester. To be a member of the staff, a student must have been enrolled in J ournalism I or II. The long hours spent editing the paper will provide experience for future journal- ists in coming years. Second semester news editor Don Beckman refers to Editor John Wine for 28 ance concerning the humor of his cartoon. Advertising Manager Chad Perry adds up advertis' ing inches.
