Members of this year's annual staff attended a yearbook workshop conference sponsored by the journalism department at the University of Washington, October 6. All of the staff attended various conferences for editors, business managers, and sports editors. These conferences were open to discussion of problems and the staff members gained valuable knowledge. Each staff member has diligently donated much time and effort to bring to the students an annual of which they could be very proud. Of course there were always the last minute rushes to meet a deadline, but through the combined efforts of the efficient staff it was possible to meet these deadlines This year's editor, Willabelle Rinell, and assistant editor, Nadine Person, have put forth thought and effort to produce an attractive and different yearbook with new lay-outs and headings. Mrs. Borgstrom, the adviser, was patient with the hopes, dreams and mistakes of the staff. She has been a real help in assisting the staff with the planning of the T'Kopechuck. The members of the Annual Staff worked hard to meet the necessary deadlines. 10 Nadine Person, Assistant Editor and Mike Schwab, Business Man- ager discussed plans for the Annual.
