The filii 68 ll3 IL ll 1 IAIIQID Under the enthusiastic guidance of Executive Editor Erzsi De'ak, and devoted advisor, lVlarcia Burnside, West Valley's bi-vveekly paper was a fine bit of journal- ism. A new format and choice of newsprint gave THE BLIZZARD a new look. With the late start, the staff had a great deal to catch up on. The lack of the absolutely necessary light tables and other supplies made the production of the paper VERY interesting! ln the end, the year smoothed out and next year looks to be even more organized and successful!! IfI look at one more headline I'II die. . . groans Editor Erzsi De'ak, All right, kiddies, here's the plan. ivvv- X Oh, my gosh--the deadline's today and, , .!! Pieces fall in place as John, Therese and Jody finalize their layout. John Duel, X509 62,6

Rhonda was crying, David was fretting and everyone was IIVIPRESSED . The West Aurora is obvi- ously a great success . The staff unrolled a tremendous ad campaign with the soapy of Rhonda and David and the IIVIPRESS YOURSELF slogan which eventually led to I'lVI IIVIPRESS ED iron-ons. The group was unbelievably lucky at this sales pitch and the student body and all year- book buyers responded extreme ly favorably . By the end of the first yearbook sale, over 600 books had been sold--- a fantastic record which total- ly outdid that of the '75-'76 school term. Last year the West Aurora placed 2nd in the National Columbia S .P.A. contest, this year led by Kristi Smith and Ann DeVries, the staff conceived a book of true Qual- ity and delight that is worth a first place at least!! Advisor, Barb Philleo was exceedingly pleased with the staff and the end result. Aren't we all! ! ?!! Congrats are in order for this team of people who dili- gently and devotedly worked the hours away, wore their l'IVI llVIPRESSED T-shirts, and came to class EVERYDAY! l '--., lil, ff, FA ' it' f
