With the complete biographical section going to the printer this month, Landis predicted that 314 will be ready for distribution in late May or early June. The volume will contain, he said, more senior portraits than any issue of the Senior Album series, which it succeeds...

As it was, different Council committees had their printing done by more than a dozen different shops often without trying to find the least expensive printer; frequently without obtaining previous authorization by the Council or its treasurer.

In his English car, Editor Sancton made the rounds of his borderline beat, hunting for stories to bolster the time-honored diet of "personals." Soon, paid circulation...
