QUILL AND SCROLL

The West Liberty high school was granted its Quill and Scroll charter May 11, 1927. Students enrolled in high schiil journalism are eligible for membership if they meet the requirements at the time of their election.

In 1928 the first W. L. H. S. members of Quill and Scroll were elected.

The first "Blue and White" was an annual published in November 1926. Then it was published once a month from 1926 to 1931. Miss Edna Bockwolt organized the first journalism class in 1928, and then the junior and seniors put out the paper together. In 1931 the paper was changed into a weekly paper and published on one page of the "West Liberty Index." It has remained in this form ever since.
