Foatprint Whenever there was a scramble for mailboxes, a rustle of paper, and eager scanning of pages you could be sure that another copy of Footprints had come out and been deposited in everyone's box. With its bang-up sports reporting, gossip columns, feature articles and editorials, life at Wheaton Acad- emy was accurately portrayed by Footprints. Not only the human side of the news, but the humorous, pathetic, spiritual, and sometimes very shocking side of the news was brought into the light of day. Sometimes the staff had a hard time finding original ideas for copy writing, layout planning, and new features. But with Miss Roberta Chapman, fac- ulty sponsor, sparking the staff and each member with a nose for news and plenty of determined willingness to work, Footprints turned out to be four pages of unique, iam-packed articles which made everyone say, Pretty neat paper , while sitting around in the lounge with their noses deeply buried in it.

Compass Obviously, everything that exists has a cause, and this yearbook didn't just happen. A careful combination of human and material qualities caused the great effect called Compass . Lots of hard work and planning has made into a reality, a centennial yearbook. Under the direction of editor Dave Lindberg and the guiding hand of Mr. Kullberg, the work was completed. Imagine a rather small, square room, furnished with a long table, and chairs placed in a disorderly fashion around it. On the table are yearbooks, iumbled papers, a typewriter, a few pencils, iars of dry rubber cement, and pictures of students, teachers, and buildings. This is a brief, but rather accurate picture of the place, where, every fourth period, you could find staff members working to pro- duce the book. There was copy to write by the ton, pictures to paste, layout to be planned, concessions to sell, and typing to be done. The Lord's guidance was sought in every problem, and with their hands in His, the staff has tried to make the '53 Compass a book which will bring honor to His name. 11, -.r A sa game.
