IteaAooL Stuff Working on the layout of a section for "The Hawk" are Editor Barb Koutny and Assistant Editor Betty Barta , while Mr . Thompson, Consulting Editor , adds a word of advice . Section editors Anita Trachta, Mike Jaeger and Darla Chadima work hard at pre paring pages to meet a deadline. Work on "The Hawk" began early in September when each section editor drew up a dummy copy of his section, planning for pictures he needed and copy he wanted. The business managers , Bill Scriven and Larry Howe , planned an operating budget for the year . Pictures of homerooms , faculty, activities and sports were taken on various days . Then came the job of pasting and arranging the pictures as well as editing and typing the copy, which kept the entire yearbook staff busy for many hours . -
