During the school year eight issues of the paper were printed under the direction of editor Mary L. Weiking and the advisors, Marie B. Sanders, John Monson, and Joan Hansen. Comprising the newspaper staff were five seniors, ten juniors, eight sophomores, and three freshmen. Aims of the ORIOLE include keeping students, teachers, and parents informed of school activities as well as giving students an opportunity to serve their school and gain worthwhile journalistic experience working on the paper. Headline writing and an work are among contributions of staff members. At a journalism conference at the University of Wisconsin in October attended by editor Mary L. Weiking, the ORIOLE was commended for its journalistic accomplishments as an outstanding newspaper for a school of its size. By attaining a specified number of ORIOLE points, staff members become eligible for bronze, silver, or gold awards which are presented on class night. 22
