The MARGRAY staff of the year 1963-64 successfully published the school news- paper, concerning all scholastic and social activities. To augment its treasury, the Mar- gray staff sold refreshments at all football and basketball games. The editors were Jane Burbank, editor-in-chief, and Barbara Cohen, managing editor. The Margray Council, comprised of editors of the staffs, met monthly to discuss business and policies of the paper. This group elected Sue Sienko, director; Ann Her- man, recorder; and Jean Capen, representative to Student Council, as the officers for the year. The entire staff is grateful for the guidance of its faculty advisors, Mrs. Mildred White, Mrs. Elizabeth Berten, and Miss Elizabeth Treiber.
