Editors's Note: This is a corrected version of the original article. At the time this article was prepared for printing, the person doing the layout would have each column of text printed on a strip of paper that would be affixed to the layout page with a waxy adhesive. Apparently there were edits to the original layout and it really got mixed up. The version you see I have digitally corrected. Back in the early 1970s as a photojournalist I had a lot of experience with this layout process doing layouts for the 32 page alumni quarterly newspaper at a Midwestern College.
