News Editor of The Hatchet - another ;-) - the student newspaper. Why no Leica? I'd abandoned my IIIc for the SLR - and didn't return to Leica until the mid-70s. I've always been an on-again/off-again Leica guy, who each time he leaves, eventually regrets the move, and pays twice as much to get back into the club. And on top of all that I was doing far more writing than shooting at that point, and continued to do so for a couple decades there after. B.

Undoubtedly shot on Tri-X - was there any other film? - with a Pentax and Vivitar Series 1 28 lens - those of you who only look at Leica images, avert your eyes! :-) So you were doing yearbook stuff in 1969, huh? I assume GWU is George Washington University? And why weren't you using a Leica then? When I did my yearbook stint, a few years earlier, I managed to use my M2 quite a bit.
