Raleigh High Schools Consider One Shared Yearbook
Seven Raleigh County high schools that never regularly issued annuals may publish a single joint yearbook this year. J L Hornbeck proposed the plan at the Raleigh County High School Press association meeting hosted by Stoco High School. A two-student committee will consult publishers on costs, and reports are due at the February Woodrow Wilson High School meeting. The 1,850 total students span Marsh Fork, Mark Twain, Stoco, Shady Spring, Collins, Colcord, and Trap Hill. Woodrow Wilson is excluded due to prior plans for a 1937 yearbook. S. Willis Gunnoe urged students to contribute articles beyond school topics.
