In a recent student poll taken by an interested journalism stu dent, gossip columns were voted the best feature in the school paper while the news stories and advertising were given very little credit. This should not be true of course. All you students will agree that the paper is edited for the purpose of giving the full details 9n news happenyigs go ing on around school, not for the purpose of recording school ro mances or hurting someone’s feelings. While writing for the paper, we have tried to give each depart ment of the school circle public- lty; we Hav& followed journalism styles in4 writing the stories up, and we have given you news stories on all school events. The paper only comes out every two weeks and therefore, we can only give you the news that happens in between issues, which some times old to some of you students but usually not the the parents and advertisers who read the paper too, and they would also like to know what happens at West Linn.

Of course everyone has their own opinion. « Most of the seniors in the sen- critisms that were brought out in the poll, and none of them proved logical. What Do You Suggest Now? Eds. Note: If you do have any suggestions, turn them into Mr. Howard. We will be glad to use any of them if they can improve the paper in any way.
