Editorial"
Thank you Susan
for your help
With all the big news this week another per-
sonnel change has gone almost unnoticed. Susan
Rutherford assistant director of University
Relations will be leaving after next week to
assume a similar position at Odessa College.
To list all the times Susan has helped the Yellow
Jacket staff would take much more room than is
contained in this paper and that would only be in
the tangible ways not the intangible ones.
She has helped write stories secured photos and
done a thousand other things. But most and best of
all she has been a very good friend to us.
Thanks Susan and God bless you.

Dear Editor:
I would like to take this op-

who have given their valuable
time to the Junior Class this

upon the numerous projects

Junior-Senior Banquet) it looks
as if student involvement has
taken a giant step against
apathy. A hearty thanks for
caring . . . .let's keep it up !
