- Tt i onnuriicotion Under the sponsorship of English Department Chairman, Mrs. Bobby Al- ford, The Blade, the Upper School newspaper, continued its excellent coverage of Woodward Academy ' s events. The dedicated staff of writers, editors, artists and photographers pro- vided varied features on sports, student issues, musical groups and all other in- formation of concern to the Wood- ward community. Alonso Duralde, Sen- ior Editor, and The Blade staff pro- duced six issues of the newspaper, in- cluding the last issue being the Senior issue. Another means of communication, is Woodward ' s WATV. The only school with a closed-circuit television station, WATV is one of the major sources of information on campus. Each morning WATV presents a student written, pro- duced and directed show. Students write skits, interview celebrities, and film campus events. Then they edit all the available information, add special effects and sound and have it ready to go by 8:15 every school morning. An excellent learning opportunity, stu- dents are involved in every facet of television production. For students in- terested in a television career. Wood- ward provides another opportunity to get a head start. The Woodward Academy literary magazine, under the sponsorship of English Department members Mrs. Carolyn Haldeman and Mr. Kevin Har- key, represents the creative efforts of the Upper School student body. The title. Silent Voices, based on Tenny- son ' s poem, The Silent Voices speaks of one ' s attempt to rise from momen- tary fears and despair. The literary magazine provides an opportunity for students to express their inner thoughts and feelings through the use of poetry, songs, short stories, and art work. The 1984 Silent Voices was Woodward ' s first literary magazine to be entered in national competition. Long hours, determina- tion and dedication were the by-words of co-editors Ann Askew and Nancy Howard and the twenty-one member staff as they produced another excel- lent and creative magazine. The 1984 Phoenix staff lead by Advi- sor Susan Sentell, worked to produce a yearbook that covered all aspects of the school. There was a new addition to the Book — the use of second color in the introductory section. The yearbook is the largest public re- lations document of the Academy and unless one has been involved in the production of a yearbook, it is hard to understand the complexity of such work. Copy must be written and then rewritten, layouts must be designed and drawn, pictures chosen and cap- tions written. The staff began learning all these intracasies when they attend- ed summer camp at the University of Georgia. For the past two years. The Phoenix has proven to be an outstanding year- book. The 1982 Phoenix won the de- sign award for layout given by the Printing industries of America, the first for any high school yearbook in Geor- gia. The 1983 Phoenix is in competition and will prove to be another award winning book. The 1984 Phoenix, un- der the direction of Editor Debbie Newman and Assistant Editor Phenizee McElroy will continue the winning Woodward tradition.
