The editorial masthead which appears at the bottom of
page 2 states that Smoke Signals is “edited, printed and
published by students of Chowan College.”
Those students who write, edit and headline news stories
and who take and process photographs perform functions
with which the student body is generally familiar
But there are other students who do such things as set type,
paste up pages, photograph these pages, strip the page
negatives so produced, “burn” plates from these negatives,
put the plates in place on the rollers of the web press, thread
the web (or roll of paper) between the rollers and operate the
press.
Some of these students are shown on this page at their
work.
Reading clockwise from upper left are Donna Garr setting
type, Joe Patrick conferring with Prof. Patsy Edwards on
the placement of type on an inside page, Scott Morris careful
ly placing an “ear” beside the front page nameplate; Jerry
Davis. Mark McDuffie, Mike Hertzig, Richard Michaels and
LeeSa Engle listening to Prof. Dwight Collier’s instructions
on stripping a page negative while Jimmy Webb and Jimmy
Snow work on a separate project at the rear; Rydell Shaw
opaquing a negative of the back page; Prof. William'Sowell
checking the placement of the web before starting the press
as Billy Stallings and Bob Mumma watch, and Joe Lanyon
and Production Assistant Charles Futrell examining copies
of the newspaper for quality of reproduction as they roll off
the press.
