All told, that's more than 600 photo graphs that will be needed.

This means that the shutter will have to be clicked some 3000 to 4000 times! Needless to say, our pho tographer - our lone photo grapher - is getting'a sore eye and shutter finger. If you like to help our lone photographer, please let us know. We have paper; we need the prints. If interested, please read the notice in front of the yearbook office, or leave a note in the Capitolite mailbox in the Stu dent Government offices.
