Hi Sheila, The Green and Gold was Mr. Rumball's idea. He had taken over the English classes from Miss Sheehan when she became vice principal, and encouraged the classes to vote to have a monthly newspaper in lieu of a yearbook as there wasn't a budget to have both. Leigh Archibald and myself were appointed co-editors and it was produced off the Gestetener machine in the Library. It cost a dime to help pay production costs, but only a handfull of students paid the dime each month, then handed their copies around for everyone else to read. I only remember it because I was involved. Unfortunately it cost the '64 grad class their memories.

I lived in Shilo from 1961-1964, attending PESS grades 9-11. All yearbooks and memorabilia went missing during move from Shilo to Vedder Crossing, so no references and only vague memories remain.
